Bill: For Protection of the Al'Badaran Aryan Minority
Details
Submitted by[?]: Al'Badaransk Arisk Folkeparti
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill asks for an amendement to the Constitution. It will require two-thirds of the legislature to vote in favor. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: September 2225
Description[?]:
| We represent the Aryan minority (i.e. we share a common ancestor with the Doron Akigan minority of Deltarsko.) of Al'Badara. As a minority we believe we are entitled to certain rights for the protection of our culture, from the oppressive Majatran majority government. We have edited the national anthem to be more politically sensitive to our oppression. All these bills have the goal of an eventual creation of an autonomous Aryan Muhafazah (amt på dansk.) mvh, Pharlige Phil Formand for det Al'Badaranske Ariske Folkeparti |

| Message | I believe in article 4,5,and 6. On the national anthem, it does need to be changed from "The Voice" to "The Sultan" or something like that but if I proposed a national anthem it would rhyme because my party is full of political rappers... |

| Date | 08:04:41, May 11, 2006 CET | From | Al'Badaran Conservative Party | To | Debating the For Protection of the Al'Badaran Aryan Minority |
| Message | Disagree with: Changes to the National Anthem- If we include one minority then we would have to include all; a new anthem which represents the sultan and diversity would be more appropriate. The Government policy concerning the visitation of foreign missionaries; I thought we were talking about local culture, so why does foriegn missioneries have to be welcomed? Government policy concerning immigration; many implications here, the flodding of the country with cheap labor from one nation, crime-related problems and after all since we are talking about a mninority which is already in Al'Badara I do not see how this is relevent. Positive Discrimination: We have argued that this is ineffective in ending discrimination, as one might find it harder to accept something if it was forced upon him. |
