| Message | Again, another joke of a bill submitted by the Protecterate Party. |

| Message | Why is the dust bunny a joke? Dust bunnies are a noble animal and though seemingly small and defenceless, able to resist all attempts of removal. Malivia is a nation which though weak militarily and has faced many problems manages to stay intact and to survive through the yrs. The dust bunny is native to our lands and can be found in all our climates from the central mts to our shoreline. In fact many of our citizens have one or more dust bunnies in their homes. |

| Message | This bill is even gayer than the last one. |

| Message | A national animal is supposed to be an animal that brings pride to the citizenry by looking at it's image. It is supposed to be an animal of strength, ability, and nobility. I deplore this bill that makes a mockery of this nation's noble, and real, animal the Panther. The Protecterate Party should be ashamed of themselves. A dust bunny isn't even actually an animal. |

| Message | Where is their pride in a solitary predator which preys on the weak. The dust bunny has far more to be proud about then a panther. What will we do when panthers start attacking our livestock or children. Should we have national animal hunts where we kill our own symbol? |
