| Message | Well we have legalized drugs so they are within their rights. Why shouldn't they be? Now if you said musicians then we might see your point. Those show biz types often think they are above the law. Hence the formation of the EM...to change it. We are undecided on this bill, but will vote in favor most likely. |

| Message | True, it is legal (depending on local government, of course), but it's still not that great for policy-making. And justice is an area where EM's policies seem to be particularly controversial. |

| Message | Controversy is our specialty. Unfortunately, our attempts to pass a law requiring mandatory sterilization of liberals has failed. However, there is still hope that they will abort themselves into extinction. |
| Date | 22:07:53, July 15, 2005 CET | From | Free Reform Coalition (FRP) | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of July 2080 |
| Message | we'd support mandatory sterilization of liberals. but on a less serious note, any particular requests from EM and PP on what they would prefer? |
| Date | 22:23:51, July 15, 2005 CET | From | Protectorate Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of July 2080 |
| Message | We are fine with our current seats or those proposed here we aren't too particular. We can see the LibCom's concern with having the EM in Justice since they did propose televising executions, and we fear they might be a bit harsh during sweeps week. |
| Date | 00:24:49, July 19, 2005 CET | From | LibCom Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of July 2080 |
| Message | We'd support sterilisation of liberals too. Especially classical liberals. |
