| Message | Why should people be punished for consenting nonviolent behaviour between adults in the privacy of their own homes? |
| Date | 18:46:09, August 22, 2006 CET | From | Aldegar Social Democratic Party | To | Debating the Core Families Act |
| Message | Also, why are homosexual couples any different from heterosexual couples? The government should not discriminate against people that would like to marry someone of their own gender. In addition to that, the military should not remove some of its best soldiers just on the grounds of open homosexuality. Is falling in love with someone of one's own gender so much of a crime to put the "criminal" out of work? |

| Message | These proposals are homophobic and promote reactionary views. We will not support this proposal at all. |
