Repeal "Freedom of Marriage Act"

A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation


Category: Repeal
Resolution: GA#15
Proposed by: Hamiltonya

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #15: Freedom of Marriage Act (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Significant) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: Though the intended purpose of the “Freedom of Marriage Act” is to allow marriage between individuals despite gender or sexual orientation, it fails to go far enough.

It clearly lacks an article to protect the right to marriage for couples of differing race.

The World Assembly shall not withhold marriage from opposite race couples, and therefore shall repeal the “Freedom of Marriage Act” in order to create the opportunity for a wider-encompassing resolution.

This shall protect the right to marriage for opposite-race couples as well as same-gender couples.

Seeking the opportunity to introduce a more effective version of this resolution to the World Assembly,

The World Assembly hereby repeals “Freedom of Marriage Act”.

You have to admit, that's a new tactic for trying to repeal this one.

Yes, but isn't it illegal for trying to do more than just repeal?

[Flibbleites]

You have to admit, that's a new tactic for trying to repeal this one.

Yes, but isn't it illegal for trying to do more than just repeal?

It reads to me like they're describing their intended replacement.

[Bears Armed]

Yes, but isn't it illegal for trying to do more than just repeal?

It reads to me like they're describing their intended replacement.

It reads to me that they're saying the replacement "shall" include an additional clause along the lines that they want regardless of who writes it.

Nuclear Arms Reduction Treaty
A resolution to slash worldwide military spending.


Category: Global Disarmament
Strength: Mild
Proposed by: Super Pie Lords

Description: The World Assembly,

NOTICING that many member nations have a high ammount of nuclear weapons,

DEFINING a nuclear weapon as "a weapon whose destructive power originates from the nuclear fission",

UNDERSTANDING that nuclear weapons are key to a nation's security, but may also jeopardize not only a whole nation, but the whole world itself,

ALARMED at the ammount of nations whom do not have sufficient control over their nuclear weapons,

Hereby,

MANDATES that all member nations take action to have better control over their nuclear weapons,

URGES member nations to be careful with their use of nuclear weapons,

REQUIRES that member nations take part in the destruction of at least 1/5 of their nuclear weapons if they posses over 1,000 nuclear weapons, tactical or strategic,

CLARIFIES that the destruction of a nation's nuclear weapons is required if they are over said limit, that it is reccomended that they take more care with their weapons, and that it is obligatory for member nations to obtain better control over their nuclear weapons if they do not already have a great ammount of control.

Urges member nations to be careful? Silliness. Plus some unsubstatiated and scare-mongering claims about "not having control". Also, "amount" is not spelled with 2 M's.

This is just bad writing.

International Loan Resolution
A resolution to reduce income inequality and increase basic welfare.


Category: Social Justice
Strength: Mild
Proposed by: Hamiltonya

Description: Though nations often assist each other through loans, this process can be easily exploited. This leads to international tensions as well as possibilities of armed conflict. It is vital that some form of arbitration exists to solve these dilemmas.

The World Assembly is a peace-keeping organization and through mediations, conflicts involving loan disputes can be avoided. The World Assembly also seeks the betterment of its members and therefore shall provide loans in order to stimulate growth within its members, in whichever direction deemed satisfactory. Through this resolution, the World Assembly will become a mediator for disputed loans and a loaning entity for its members.


Section I – The World Monetary Committee
Article 1
-The World Monetary Committee is created as a branch under the World Assembly.
Article 2
-It will be funded as part of the General Fund of the General Assembly.
Article 3
-It will contain members popularly selected by the General Assembly.
Article 4
-These members shall have five-year terms.

Section II – Currency
Article 1
-The World Monetary Committee will be in charge of regulating currency exchange rates between member-nations of the World Assembly.
Article 2
-The rates will be determined by comparing the amount of currency from each nation required to buy one ounce of gold in international market prices.

Section III – Mediation
Article 1
-The World Monetary Committee will oversee mediations involving loans or loan disputes.
Article 2
-Nations of the World Assembly or outside of the World Assembly will not be forced into World Monetary Committee mediations; these mediations were created in order to be used by nations, which desire arbitration.

Section IV – International Monetary Fund
Article 1
-The International Monetary Fund will be fomented by donations from World Assembly nations.
Article 2
-The World Monetary Organization will oversee this fund.

Section V – Loans
Article 1
-World Assembly members will be able to seek loans from the International Monetary Fund with pre-determined, World Assembly-wide interest rates established by the World Monetary Committee.
Article 2
-The previously mentioned interest rates will be identical throughout the World Assembly in order to prevent favoritism or strife among nations.
Article 3
-These interest rates will not be forced onto loan-mediation seeking nations, unless desired.
Article 4
-Repayment due dates of International Monetary Fund loans will be decided by the World Monetary Committee.
Article 5
-International Monetary Fund loans can be granted in order to prevent an economic collapse, fight a current depression, establish new educational policies within an impoverished nation, or what ever else the World Monetary Committee deems fit.
Article 6
-The purpose of each loan will be verified by the World Monetary Committee to assure its validity and prevent fraud among International Monetary Fund loan receivers.

Section VI – Payment
Article 1
-The World Monetary Committee will oversee payments and repayments to and from International Monetary Fund loan receivers and givers, respectively.
Article 2
-Nations failing to provide adequate repayment in the previously established time may be subject to penalties such as a raise in interest rates or shortening of repayment time.

Illegal for having member nations serve on the committee. The currency section is rather suspect as well.

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


Category: Recreational Drug Use
Decision: Outlaw
Proposed by: Vala Ihania

Description: This proposal will ban all products containing nicotine, most notably tobacco of all kinds. The reasons for this being...

A. Nicotine is scientifically proven to cause numerous health problems, most commonly cancer of the mouth and lungs.

B. Nicotine is a poisonous substance. For example, one drop of pure nicotine could kill an adult human.

C. Nicotine is highly adictive, and can lead to repeated use of products containing nicotine, causing the problems mentioned above.

This resolution would drastically increase the welfare of society, and lead to a happier, healthier world.

You know what would lead to a "happier, healthier world" for us? No stupid proposals such as this.

[Ovisterra]

This proposal would be legal, right?

In an effort to define all previous and future legislation, the following definitions shall be binding on all resolutions:

a) “People”, “Individuals”, “Adults”, “Minors” shall only refer to the Human species.
b) “Society”, “Nations”, “Civilizations”, “Countries”, “Regions” shall only refer to the collection of Humans and Human-founded empires.

It's not illegal to suggest it. This is not an illegal proposal.

You know, at least when I propose illegal things, I usually always post it on here, which you tell me it's no good and usually I do not propose it. These people TOTALLY SKIP THE FORUM! At least I stick here most of the time now

I'll give you credit for that. Be careful about knocking other peoples' proposals though

It's always better to post it on the forum. You'll learn a lot from doing so.
