[DRAFT] WA Criminal Prosecution Court

Postby Stuzemstazem » Wed Oct 29, 2014 5:53 pm

BELIEVING that no single individual, however powerful, has the right to resist international law.

APPALLED by the fact that there is currently no International Criminal court to prosecute these criminals.

Hereby,

CREATES the WA Criminal Prosecution Court (WACPC) to

1.Prosecute individuals that do not abide by international law prescribed by the WA.
a. "Individuals" include every citizen of a nation, including its leader.

2.Prosecute nation leaders or high-ranking officials that
a.Murder or assault citizens of other nations.
b.Torture citizens of other nations.

MANDATES that all members of jury in WACPC trails are fair by
1.Making sure that jury members are not enemies of the nation being prosecuted or citizens of the nation being prosecuted.

ALSO MANDATES that the WACPC cannot receiving funding by the taxation of nations.

AUTHORIZES the WACPC to try anyone a jury of 10 says is liable.

    Vice President Bob Jackson

Oh honey, lets give him a little more to work with than that.
He's learning- in the entirely wrong way, though I confess to be a contributor to the lack of activity that gets in the way of learning through debate. The election cycle in Defwa has been taking a lot out of me and there's still months left.

So lets look at this.
Creates, clause 1, requires the individual investigation and trial of every citizen of a country for any world assembly violation.
Creates, clause 2, completely robs nations of the ability to handle crime done by political elite of foreign countries in their territory even when they're fully capable of doing so for no good reason.

You don't really outline any procedures. Your first mandates clause doesn't really mean much without that. I have no idea what this jury consists of or what its actually supposed to do. A jury of ten what? And ten out of how many? Were they selected before a trial? Why? Before looking into any of this, there are a few resolutions on trials and courts already present. Any international court would have to be in compliance, so that's a good place to start.

How do you expect the court to be funded? This exempts it from the general fund by the transitive property. Any fines could also be considered taxes on nations.

Why? They show no intention of learning. They submit proposals, then creates drafting threads expecting positive feedback. (Their biggest ambition is to be delegate of The North Pacific :rofl: ) I really could care less what they do anymore. My only hope is they submit yet another illegal proposal, and have this second entity booted out. So by all means send this to the floor please? I will be the first one to approve it....

Well I had to try.
Allegations that my reputation in the WA is as an uncaring shrew have been made by certain colleagues and spread to the media.

I have learned the bigger the uncaring shrew you are, the more people telegram you asking you to mentor them. :p

Ambassador we have spent a great deal of time and effort to undo the last judicial mistake the WA made in regards to courts.

So yes we must agree with Chester
