A large potted plant in a big plantpot with wheels suddenly comes to life, revealing a large leaf curled up to form a cone, from which a somewhat hissing voice can be heard:

"We have followed the debate, occasional name-calling and random wild bewilderment with mild interest, and while this would once more be a WA resolution that has little to no effect for us - after all, our selves are essentially just one person - we still find it ridiculous to suggest that the WA nations whom this law would affect, could not or did not already have such legislation in place, without the WA holding their hand or other relevant appendage. As such we have decided to vote against in protest of adding yet more needless bureaucracy to the pile of resolutions."

OOC: Purely IC reasons for voting against, congrats in advance for passing it. :)
This nation is a plant-based hivemind. It's current ambassador for interacting with humanoids is a bipedal plant creature standing at almost two metres tall. In IC in the WA.

There are no hidden laws. No Penalty Without Law already guarantees that all laws are publicly promulgated.

The Rule of Law was passed 13,347 votes to 2,557.

Congrats, Scion. Nicely done.
While she had no regrets about throwing the lever to douse her husband's mistress in molten gold, Blanche did feel a pang of conscience for the innocent bystanders whose proximity had caused them to suffer gilt by association.

I am against this, this interferes with the nations right to choose how they treat their prisoners and worse of the worst.

OOC: I'm unsure whether you meant to go to the thread on Crime and Punishment or whether you simply don't understand the conception of having your nation go pass some laws allowing such things.

Look at the thread title.

I imagine that they are opposed due to the several restrictions this resolution does impose on executions. Such as those prohibiting the execution of children.

EDIT: Hehe. Maybe I should have followed your instructions as well. :P
