From | People's Progressive Party | To | Debating the Reduce Police Arms | Message | The People's Party back this move to climb down to a civilised society, and not a police state. However, we will be against any bills to ban police firearms entirely |

From | Libertarian party of Darnussia | To | Debating the Reduce Police Arms | Message | i would vote for this if it was an alternative to non-lethal weapons. but it's fine now. It's not that the police uses these weapons all the time, they just CAN use these weapons. |

From | Vuloch Ca Korzia | To | Debating the Reduce Police Arms | Message | This dosn't mean that on call armed squads are banned, it means that the regular officers are not armed with assault rifles. |

From | Social Libertarian party | To | Debating the Reduce Police Arms | Message | Armed squads aren't part of the regular police. That's why there's a police department seperate from anything else. Specailist can still have miltary grade arms, like the military itself. |

From | People's Progressive Party | To | Debating the Reduce Police Arms | Message | Has anyone else noticed the communists usually end up voting with the LBSC? They're so left wing they're become right wing! |

From | People's Progressive Party | To | Debating the Reduce Police Arms | Message | I suggest a coalition between the commies and the right wingers, as you two seem to get along so well and agree on everything. Heck, get married! |

From | Progressive Democratic Alliance | To | Debating the Reduce Police Arms | Message | My opinion is that eventually as you move to the far-ends of the political spectrum, the far right and far left will meet and be the same. Thus, I see the political spectrum as more of a circle or sphere than a line. |

Random fact: The people in your nation don't like inactive parties. When you often abstain from voting for a bill, they will dislike your party and your visibility to the electorate will decrease significantly. Low visibility will means you are likely to lose seats. So keep in mind: voting Yes or No is always better than Abstaining. |
