[PASSED] Repeal "Law Enforcement Education"

[Araraukar]

OOC: Well, we started strong.

Louisistan voting against won't kill this. Not even remotely.

Yeah, it's about 2 to 1 for.

[Nordston]

Why are people voting "for" ?

[Astrolinium]

Why are people voting "for" ?

"Because we believe that the resolution up for repeal is misguided and should be stricken from the books."

OOC:
Heck, Lord Ravenclaw voted against and it is still passing by about 4000 votes.

Enough of the super delegates are for to ensure passage, barring a major shift in votes.

Nevertheless, when I have time later today, I will address the arguments in 10000 Islands' forums.

[A mean old man]

Repeal everything, pls

Ambassador Geist lazily drifts to the center of the room, during a lull when the floor is nearly empty. Giving a slight yawn, he pulls out a small card.

"As delegate of The Versutian Federation, I have cast my vote in favor of the resolution in question. Not only does the author of the target resolution support this repeal, but so does the vast majority of my region. We also opposed the original resolution, given its lack of flexibility and heavy-handed approach to an issue that does not affect all members nations in the same way, if it does at all. This issue needs a lot of work if we are to take it seriously in future legislation."

The ambassador floats back out the room.

OOC: We're back in the "For"-Column anyway

I saw that. And I've also spoken on your forum now, too.

OOC: Those two facts might be related, methinks?

OOC: The theory of temporal linearity would beg to differ. It was back up to more FOR votes yesterday evening already. But I'm lazy bum and usually only change my vote once a day, so I didn't update my vote until this morning. At that point EP had indeed posted.
One way or the other, we appreciate every WA author who stops by to do some campaigning on our offsite forums.

[Cinnibar]

"Also Disappointed by the resolution's lack of

Three oranges, peeled and de-veined,

Two hundred and fifty milliliters of milk or coconut milk,

One egg plus two egg yolks (from chickens),

Five milliliters of vanilla extract,

Thirty milliliters of raw honey (preferably from Terran bees), and

Three hundred and seventy-five millileters of ice,

despite the obvious benefits of including these and an electric blender at public meetings,

Shocked at the target's failure to combine everything except oranges and ice in a blender and mixing for about twenty seconds to create a frothy cream, before adding the oranges and blending for another twenty seconds or until smooth; and at last adding the ice and blending for another twenty seconds;"

John Cleese: That last part of the resolution got too silly!
General: Get on with it. GET ON WITH IT!

[Excidium Planetis]

OOC: Those two facts might be related, methinks?

Yeah, no. I posted after Louisistan announced the change in vote.

[The Novakian Empire]

Let's repeal the hell out of this resolution.

"Voted against. I prefer pina coladas."

Bell fights to maintain a straight face.

Gerald asks, "Do you also enjoy being caught in the rain, Ambassador?"

ARI: (to Ahume) Don't you DARE ask if he likes making love at midnight. Anyway, we have registered our vote in favor of the repeal, in spite of our disdain for the attached recipe. Eggs and honey. Bleah.

And it would probably be wise not to ask if he has half a brain either.

"Hey!" protests Gerald. "I was just going to ask him if he liked the feel of the ocean. Wallenburg has excellent beaches, you know. You two have some sick minds!"

"You people are just terrible."

OOC: I'm missing the cultural reference point you all seem to be aware of.

Representative Ergo Vespucci steps to the main podium, nervously fiddling with his collar before his young nations first address to the general assembly. Stepping up and turning his head he looks toward the hall and speaks, "In our republic...we spend a significant amount of our law enforcement funds to proper training and management of our police. While our incredibly low crime rate makes this easy, higher crime rate does not excuse those nations that use their law enforcement like an occupying army, or otherwise misuses the aforementioned force. While our hearts go out to those citizens under the boot of police brutality, it is not our job to provide for such ignorant nations. Nor do we believe that such issues may be efficiently resolved by the World Assembly, it must be tackled at possibly by the regional, or even more preferably by the national governments of the World Assembly. By people who understand the unique cultural and socioeconomic forces that drive police relations at the national level. To conclude, we see the original resolution as inefficient and overbearing. As such we have decided to vote with the repeal effort."

OOC: You realize that the resolution already passed and this is a resolution to repeal it, right?

[Happy People Land]

Thank you for orchestrating the repeal of my proposal, although its intentions were pure the proposal was not fit for the WA legislation.
