Description[?]:
| Mr. President, The criminals in our country sit in prison, because they did violate the law. However, these criminals still have a right to vote in elections which is wrong. Criminals shouldn’t be able to participate in important civilian decisions since they can’t behave like citizens. I know that this is an authoritarian like decision I have to make, but it’s the best for the ordinary citizens. Marina Calderone, FN Minister of Justice |

| Random fact: Players have a responsibility to differentiate between OOC (out-of-character) and IC (in-character) behaviour, and to make clear when they are communicating in OOC or IC terms. Since Particracy is a role-playing game, IC excesses are generally fine, but OOC attacks are not. However, players must not presume this convention permits them to harass a player with IC remarks that have a clear OOC context. |
