| Message | Art.1: Why should women have the right to kill unborn children, if their life isn't threatened. Art.2: Why should a child be raised better by two males or two females than by one? Art.3: Why should we allow maniacs to come into our country and to preach death or similar things for all infidels? Art.4: Tariffs hurt our people more than companies who'd like to import things. Art.5: Why shouldn't we also use water or solar or similar kinds of energy? Art.6: If we legalise drugs, we should legalise them all. Art.7: Individuals can be hurt the same way by libel and slander like public figures. |

| Message | Against which one? We mixed those different themes because we didn't want to create a law for every single one. |

| Message | I'm against article #6. I mean we don't allow people to believe what they want to(see #3), but we let them kill themselves by taking drugs? |
