Redacting my sponsorship of the most recent bill proposed.

Just curious, why did you pulled your sponsor to the bill?

This isn't fucking Texas where you're a commie if you don't suck Jesus dick and worship guns. If you think supporting people's right to not be shot is leftist then you shouldn't be in the FDP.

A rage quitting moment there. First part of that statement was probably not the best to say.

Nothing generates more fights here than the mention of firearms

Indubitably it does. One of the most controversial topics within NSGS.

Sounds cool bro...

[The New World Oceania]

The original Adrius proposal here stated that the Garifuna were a plurality of around 30% (granted, the new Adrius is probably much smaller in size, obviously has a different location and geography, doesn't have the Indian population, maybe not the Frisian population, maybe the Garifuna converted to Christianity, etc.). Plus, consistency is important.

If that profile of Adrius is true, then there really is no point of Adrian independence considering only 22% are ethnically Dutch.

The Adrian Independence Movement has gradually evolved to be something with more Garifuna, Carib, and Arab support and more opposition from the White Calaverdeans Party.

Sponsors:
An act to repeal portions of legislation passed in poor faith; to subject all legislation to potential judicial review, amendment, and repeal; to protect the non-partisan nature of the speakership; to restrict the Speaker from refusing to allow debate on legislation; to set forth a process of judicial review; to set terms for the impeachment of the Speaker should they act on partisan grounds.

b) If the Speaker reasonably believes that legislation contradicts doctrines of law which cannot be repealed, she or he may submit that legislation to the Supreme Court for review.
c) The Supreme Court shall review the legislation within one (1) week and return a ruling approving the legislation to be debated and voted upon unless it is in direct contravention of international law to which the Republic of Calaverde is a party.

i) [OOC] If a member of the Supreme Court is the Speaker, that member shall recuse themselves from the judicial process for the legislation in question.

The Adrian Independence Movement has gradually evolved to be something with more Garifuna, Carib, and Arab support and more opposition from the White Calaverdeans Party.

But the whole reason pro-independence people claim for their cause is that Adrius has its unique Dutch culture and language, making it very different from Calaverde.

Yeah, for consistency's sake it would be best to regard Adrius as a Dutch majority. We've all been acting like it the whole time anyway, it would make no sense for it to have anything but 65% or more majority.

I don't think we should suddenly change the demographics to appease this independence bid.

The names of most characters from Adrius and the placenames are Dutch. There has been a de facto agreement.

No stats were ever agreed on as far as I know. So how does anyone know that there is a large Dutch majority that would make Adrius very politically significant?

The names of most characters from Adrius and the placenames are Dutch. There has been a de facto agreement.

So? People are bad at RPing. We had a Muslim senator. We have Jewish senators. None of that makes any sense.

Then that means we need to discuss Adrius's statistics and vote on them. I'd be open to that.

And? Canada has a Sikh MP, they're not completely out of the ordinary. The only MPs that never made sense to me was Maryginia's 18-year old PT member and the Dej/Nihil combination of Tony Blair and Boris Johnson.

Thing is, it would make a lot more sense for an island, colonized by the Dutch (ergo eradicating most natives), dominated politically by Dutch people, and with a political movement based mostly around the fact that they're Dutch and the rest of the nation isn't even close, to be ethnically dominated by Dutch too.

Well, that could be though "Dmitri Covasku" when I created the name 3+ years ago, is a Russian Italian. So...

Penne Vodka for all!
