| Message | Well, it can, but it wouldn't give full efficiency against crimes.Like every modern and democratic nation, we shall have a police organization, without involving military, whose duty is to defend country against enemies rather than individuals from crimes. |

| Message | Attacking our country and/or its people is against the law. You must admit, since allowing our military to replace the civilian police, we have been much more prepared to invade strongholds of organised crime within our country. They never expect our attack helicopters, and just look at the way they surrender themselves at the sight of a single main battle tank! Ha ha, good times... ...uh oh. I just now remembered that we execute all prisoners of war who have surrendered... |
