Details
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: April 2349
Description[?]:
| With the passage of this bill we do declare Red-tailed Hawk Hunting Season to be officially open. The Red-tailed Hawk has for too long been a scourge of the people and animals of Beiteynu. It has flown into our nation unwanted and attempted to dislodge the entire indigenous population of birds. Furthermore Red-tailed Hawks have on many occasions attempted to attack humans without obeying by the correct laws of warfare. They are a cancer on our skies and must be removed at all cost. All Red-tailed Hawks in Beiteynu are to be exterminated. ARTICLE 1: All Red-tailed Hawks may be shot without any regulation. Their savaged remains may also be dragged out of the rivers and spat on if so needed. ARTICLE 2: All Red-tailed Hawks may be kept as pets without any regulation. They may be mistreated at the wish of the owner. |

| Message | "This is no joke, the Red-tailed Hawk is like cancer to our skies; it is not welcome, it spreads and it kills all that is good and pure. We find it shocking to see the ASG taking a pro-cancer stance but then again it would be quite fitting for the evolutionists to be the least evolved." -- Av Beit Din Daniel Shkolnik |

| Message | We're shocked with this move of Beiteynu to kill an innocent animal. We proposed an alternative by capture the red hawk and send it to Pontesi. We're ready to accept it with pleasure. Laura Weston, Pontesi Secretary of State for Foreign Affair |

| Message | "We find the encouragingly peaceful remarks of the Pontesian Foreign Affairs minister in direct contrast with the nonsensical perception the Jewry have of us. We also find Daniel Shkolnik's comment a laughably fantastic example of the fallacy of affirming the consequent and the fallacy of argument from incredulity. We might be voting against this because to support federalism, we might be voting against this to oppose the policy on keeping animals as money maintaining pets would be better spent on infrastructure but no, the frankly insane remark of the Av Beit Din is a testament to the increasing tendency of the Beiteynu Resistance Committee to jump to irrational conclusions and appeals to unfounded fear in their darkest hours. It is simply the largest piece of sensationalist codswallop we've heard in a while. Your demonisations would leave people to wonder how many straws you have left to clutch at. It is becoming increasing apparent that the minority Sanhedrin is hell-bent on idle fallacy. A party for peace seems to want to pick a war with its forked tongue but it is forever blunted. We are here for our own area, but it appears your lack of ability will force yourselves to become noM'ADic with time." |
