Repeal "Rights of Indigenous Peoples"

A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.


Category: Repeal

Resolution: GA#328

Proposed by: Tamrisky

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #328: Rights of Indigenous Peoples (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: The Indigenous people don't deserve any better than the non-Indigenous.

Just because they were here first doesn't mean that they should be treated better, get better health care or get better anything.

They can believe in there culture but we own there land now.
They want it back? they should stop only using the support of the government and try getting a job and buy the land just like every other person.

They can have health care just they have to pay the same as we do.

Approvals: 1 (Vancouvia)

Status: Lacking Support (requires 94 more approvals)

Voting Ends: in 3 days 3 hours

And again. No "repeals" clause.
This could be taken as Grossly Offensive if you look at it a certain way.

I find it somewhat amusing that the author of the resolution trying to be repealed approved it.
Everything you know about me is wrong. Or a rumor. Something like that.

5: Drugs are expensive and bring many addicts into poverty

Repeal "Rights of Indigenous Peoples"

A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.


Category: Repeal

Resolution: GA#328

Proposed by: Swatar

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #328: Rights of Indigenous Peoples (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: The Dictatorship of Swatar invites all respected member of the World Assembly to re-evaluate this matter.

The resolution as it stands makes not difference between an evolved and socially ready indigenous and a "wild" indigenous.

Some Nations might have a considerable number of indigenous peoples, and providing for them would prove an effort that could weaken the economy and social structure, not to mention the culture, of said nation.

The current resolution "Prohibits member nations from forcibly assimilating indigenous peoples, or eradicating, reducing, or limiting their culture, with exceptions provided in cases in which existing international law prohibits specific practices of the indigenous peoples", with no discrimination over the cultural and social level.

The part where the current resolution states "[...]unless a legitimate governmental need requires such land and no reasonable alternative exists[...]" is extremely vague and subject to interpretation which would lead to internal debate a possible international issues.

Again, the current resolution also states "in which case the indigenous peoples in the area affected shall be given fair compensation and adequate time to prepare for their relocation to reasonably close and similar lands" - not only we are not assured that the indigenous population would be willing to accept said relocation under any term, but they might escalate the issue to violence, involving a large international crisis and divergence in opinions between the members of this organization.

I therefore implore all respectable members of the World Assembly to repeal this resolution in this form and seek, if need be, to submit a new and much better designed one.

Repeal "The Prisoners of War Accord"

A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.


Category: Repeal

Resolution: GA#18

Proposed by: Al Curtisany

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #18: The Prisoners of War Accord (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: I wish there was an amendment option, but unfortunately not so. What must be considered is that if there is no "terror" in the concept of Prisoners of War, then why would troops try as hard to battle? Much less, why would there bother to be any defense at all? I agree that civilians should be treated well as described above, (really I think civilian PoW should be outlawed period). But as a soldier, you need motivation. You need a reason to go on. When you sign up to enlist in the military, you already know you might die. Which leads me to my next argument; whose to say that now since PoW accords are now more expensive and resource consuming, that militaries won't start operating under "the black flag", or take no prisoners and kill everyone. Fatalities would sky rocket! Has nobody considered this? Perhaps it's time. i officially propose to repel this Accord.

Your a couple days late and a few dollars short friend. Usually is is considered good form to actually tell us why you believe the proposal is is in violation of the rules. Simply posting it here, as has been done a couple of times before you does nothing to help the cause.

Repeal "Rights of Indigenous Peoples"

A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.


Category: Repeal

Resolution: GA#328

Proposed by: NewSpartan

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #328: Rights of Indigenous Peoples (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: All citizens are equal under the law!
Recognize that there are indigenous peoples is a form of discrimination!
For all intents and purposes we are saying that they are different from other citizens and must have special laws and rights!
We do not think that this is fair to the remaining citizens.
As such we ask that this resolution law be annulled and that all citizens be equal and have the same rights and duties before the state!

No "repeals" clause, legislates in a repeal, manages to duplicate CoCR in that legislation, and isn't from the WA's perspective.

Repeal "Rights of Indigenous Peoples"

Category: Repeal

Resolution: GA#328

Proposed by: IMERINA

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #328: Rights of Indigenous Peoples (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: Recoginizing the indigenous people not as some priviledged part of the population but as citizens who might be sharing the same rights as any citizen of a nation ,but also should have the same responsibilities toward their country.

Aknowledging that a nation's unity is not ensured by promoting differences among its people but only by sharing a common culture ,language and way of life regardless of origin,religion or sexual orientation.

Concerned that enforcing equality by any kind of positive discrimination will not only alienate indigenous people as a minority but will also create frustration amongst the majority of the non indigenous people.

Encourages member nations to create oppportunities for everyone instead of assisting the weakest,because poverty maintained by social welfare will only lead to more maintained poverty.

I don't suppose we've posted the boilerplate letter recently. It reads:
You submitted a Proposal that was unfortunately invalid. If you would like to submit another proposal, please familiarize yourself with the guidelines in the Proposal Rules forum thread. We highly recommend that you post a draft to the General Assembly Forum first to be checked before submitting it to the game! The people there are very helpful at polishing drafts so they meet the guidelines. [Additional sentence from the deleting mod listing reasons.]

A resolution to increase democratic freedoms.


Category: Furtherment of Democracy

Strength: Strong

Proposed by: Demeterium

This would be done by a world assembly passport for all citizens born in an world assembly country or has lived in a world assembly country for 7 years.

In order to exercise the right to free movement. You must comply with the following.

Have an world assembly passport
Be employed or must look for employment within one year of exercising the right
Be a student
Be self sufficient or retired

If at least one member of your close family may exercise the right of free movement then all members of the close family may move with him. To be close family you must be the following relations

A registered partner
Offspring under the age of 21

If you are employed and then become redundant or are released then you must find a job within the next 2 years.

Failure to comply with any of the five rules of free movement or the above will result in you and your close family being deported.
The WA =/= EU. Not seeing how this is "Furtherment of Democracy" either.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY PROPOSAL
ID: remodio_1433281864

Ban All Drugs

A resolution to ban, legalize, or encourage recreational drugs.


Category: Recreational Drug Use

Proposed by: Remodio

Then work... If we allowed drugs, economy's would be basket cases due to the fact most men would be more worried about their drugs! And freedom... its not freedom! Drugs control their lives! Rather have no drugs, and true freedom.

Please consider!

Rather bloggy, and little more than an appeal to emotion. It also, by its "Ban All Drugs" statement would succeed in banning not only the targeted recreational drugs but all medicinal drugs as well as it doesn't specify, only says all drugs. Poorly written crap.

World Assembly Becoming Guide

A resolution to increase democratic freedoms.


Category: Furtherment of Democracy

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: Illtopilosia

Description: Understanding that all World Assembly nations must abide by the same regulation.

Acknowledging that these regulations make the World a safer, and more desirable place.

Resulting, however, in a overly similar, and alike nations, therefore restricting trade.

Also Oppresses a nation's political freedom and choices.

Which makes it Acceptable to make the World Assembly a guideline


DeFuq? Paging M. DeFuq.

Game Mechanics, I would surmise, at the very least.

Legalizing Drug use

A resolution to ban, legalize, or encourage recreational drugs.


Category: Recreational Drug Use

Decision: Legalize

Proposed by: Sirodia

Description: The ban of drugs in many nations is undermining people's right to be reckless. While drugs are a stupid choice, banning them not only takes away civil rights, but it increases crime.
If drugs are illegal, then criminals can sell them illegally. If drugs are legal, then that gives crime less of a foothold in our world.
Also, we have to trust our citizens to make the right choice. Banning drugs does not prevent drug use. Maybe if we gave our citizens the chance to prove that they are responsible, drug use would go down.

That's why the world assembly should legalize drugs internationally.

Bloggy

Does that make it illegal? If not then why is it in this thread? Not every proposal that lacks a drafting thread is illegal or even silly. You seem to be missing the whole point of this thread and simply post them here for you amusement. It really needs to stop.

The Bloody Stupid rule is still in force, last I checked. This sets no parameters for anything, it just places a blanket ban on politicians from addressing the public any method other than in public.

The Forward Unto Dawn Act

A resolution to restrict political freedoms in the interest of law and order.


Category: Political Stability

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: The Monroe Confederation

Description: THE FORWARD UNTO DAWN ACT

Act 1
_____
1.a- In an event where 2 countries that both have lower than 20 million people will be seen as a Skirmish. Wars fought with more than 20 million people will be seen as a War. In the event that a country outnumbers his/her opponent by at least 2 to 1, will be seen as a genocide.

1.b- In the event of a Skirmish, all nations within the General Assembly outside of the nations delegations will refrain from spreading their political influence to those nations.
In the event of a War, nations within the General Assembly will be allowed to give political support to ONE of the warring nations or stay neutral.
In the event of a Genocide, all nations must push for peace on both sides of the conflict.

1.c- If a country is proven to be spreading their influence in a Skirmish, all nations outside of the offenders delegation must stop all political talks with that country until the conflict is over or the embargo is called off.

2.a- The World Assembly is NOT responsible for helping in any sort of Militaristic fashion in a conflict. Political support can be used outside of the World Assembly to build support for one country or another.


Arbitrary numbers assigned, and appear to be referring to gameside stats. Arbitrary and nonsensical definitions of skirmish and genocide, with little regard paid to what a skirmish and what genocide actually are. May well be a strength violation as well.
