Umbrerian women doing so would be wise to pack everything they wish to keep with them, and not come back.

Saurisia: Commend.

Tergnitz: No opinion.

Umbrerian military recruiters are permitted to pose questions to potential new recruits concerning sexual orientation.


Condemn. It's none of your business.

In the GSD, people may only purchase firearms after demonstrating a need for them. Self-defence is not considered a reason to "need" a gun.

Commend.

Some species are protected simply because they are nonexistent in other countries, but very common here. The reason is that we do not want that to change.

Our people are hermaphrodites, but we do not discriminate against people regardless of gender or sexual orientation.

It most certainly is. Also, there is no more pressing reason to have a firearm than personal security.

Commend the lack of bigotry.

Roughly 85% of Umbrerian politicians at the national level are male.

Indifferent, the elections churned them out, you can't blame the voters for a skewed sex ratio.

In the GSD, and most civilised nations, we have this thing called a "police force" that ensures personal safety. We strongly discourage vigilante justice.

Saurisia: Indifferent, unless it is by design.

Oceanic: Indifferent, but you should probably find out what's in there at some point.

The GSD allows same sex couples all the benefits that are offered to heterosexual couples.

Umbreria has police too, my condescending friends, but they can't be everywhere at once, and a thief, or a rapist, will not politely stand by and wait as you dial the phone. The best idea is to be both ready and able to defend oneself, at least until the dedicated law enforcement can arrive on the scene.

Indifferent, by the way. The exact opposite of what we do, but we just don't care.

Homosexual in Umbreria are not allowed to marry, adopt, or serve in the military.

In Rumbria, during his last address, the Lord President was receiving a blowjob from his wife's sister. He made no secret of this fact, and in fact, she waved at the camera halfway through

Curse all you like. It has no effect.

Condemn, by the way. Ingrate.

Umbreria's leading judicial authority, the Supreme Court, has refused no less than nine times to make a ruling on the rights of homosexuals to serve in the military, stating it is not the Court's rightful place to meddle with the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

I'm pretty sure the Lord President is now having sex with my brother in the office next to mine. I'm not quite sure. I may have to go check.

Legally speaking, they're right. Changes may only be made to the UCMJ by the Congress, the Defense Department, or both, and even then a change is only legitimate when it has been signed by no less than the currently serving President.

Indifferent, so long as the dogs are wild, and not pets.

Rumbria: Indifferent.

Umbrerian police officers are always armed, even when they are not on duty.

A man was recently found in a cafe in Tradstokk, screaming at the world and pouring hot coffee over his naked flesh. Surprisingly, there was no drug/alcohol trace in his system
