The drafting of the next related proposal should be about restricting WHAT infringements of common law someone can be arrested for. If you look at that idea, it's a compromise isn't it? Suspects can't be arrested for anything, yet customary law still stands! Think about it peers!

So... instead of having the WA tell you that you have to have laws, you would rather the WA tell you what your laws are?

Nadieshda Komvorovska, Ambassador of the Republic of Asrtotzka, announces briefly:

"Honourable Ambassadors:

This resolution is absolutely necessary. As the transition from leaded fuel cars to unleaded fuel cars are not so expensive economically and technically, we strongly support this resolution."

You are in the wrong thread, dear sir.
Our nation has quite a vibrant history, you can also check out our national map. You can also click here to request an embassy.
You should check out our overly complex government structure.

I can't wait to see the next draft. I do believe ambassador Santos mentioned something on continuing work on this proposal....

No, we are not a nation of cat people. We're all humans (and a few annoying gnomes) here. The cat's just there because our king is such a genius, he saw that it would be a good military strategy to have a distractingly cute flag, to blind our enemies to (our) victory!
Technological level: FUTURE TECH. We also have MAGICAL TECH, and a lot of the people here still play with MEDIEVAL TECH and PRESENT TECH. We're cool that way.
