| Message | What does this improve upon exactly? Too vague and presumptuous |
| Date | 01:28:03, October 24, 2006 CET | From |  TSDRP | To | Debating the Increased Freedoms Bill |
| Message | This Bill will stop the government from extraditing Citizens of Trigunia, as they should be punished here, not elsewhere. This also gives more freedom to the Authorities to punish criminals and to obtain information...something which is quite popualr amongst most Trigunian plebs |
| Date | 01:32:48, October 24, 2006 CET | From | Trigunia Social Democratic Party | To | Debating the Increased Freedoms Bill |
| Message | This Bill does not improve freedoms one iota and I sincerely doubt that the people of Trigunia consider being tortured for 'information' or being put to death for ill-defined crimes such as 'terrorism' and 'treason' to be increasing their freedoms. Extraditions ought to be allowed for criminals who have committed serious crimes in other states but not our own, unless you would see Trigunia become a refuge for criminals seeking to avoid justice? The people will not stand for this! |
