| Date | 14:38:20, July 20, 2006 CET | From |  Likaton Coalition of the Willing | To | Debating the For our people |
| Message | The Freedom Army supports this Bill, with the exception of article 7, which we think perhaps goes too far. Whilst we are, obviously, fully supportive in principle of freedom for adults to view (or not) such material, we believe that minors may lack the judgement and maturity to make such a choice. We would very much like to see article 7 reigned in a smidgen, if possible. FML |

| Message | Erik ben Adamah feels that article 7 is appropriate and the Likatonia's population is generally liberal by nature. |
| Date | 01:54:31, July 21, 2006 CET | From | Commonwealth Workers Army | To | Debating the For our people |
