[DEFEATED] On the Majesty of Elephants

Postby Savonir » Sat Apr 01, 2023 11:21 am

For this April Fools I present this declaration On the Majesty of Elephants

The Security Council,

RECOGNIZING the great importance of elephants in nature

NOTING the great size of elephants, and their magnificence and majesty

RECOGNIZING that elephants are not to be trifled with

PRAISING the great strength of elephants

AWARE of three living species of elephant

Thereby declares all elephant species shall be considered official animals of the World Assembly.


The Security Council,

RECOGNIZING the great importance of elephants in war and labor

NOTING the great size of elephants, and their magnificence and majesty

RECOGNIZING that elephants are a menace in battle

PRAISING the great strength of elephants

AWARE of three living species of elephant

Thereby declares all elephant species shall be considered official animals of the World Assembly.

Ok. I changed my mind. If AN deletes the part where elephants are sent to battle and killed, I will declare full support again. Elephants are literal gods, and by sending elephants into battle, you are committing a grave sin

I'm glad at least one joke proposal is making waves.

But if this stays in the Security Council for more then four months, I am repealing it.

The South Pacific recommends that you vote $AGAINST$ On The Majesty Of Elephants", by Savonir.

Please find the Office of WA Legislation's analysis of this resolution below, and make sure to upvote the OWL's recommendation dispatch.

Nah.
If authors want the OWL to put effort into writing recommendations for their proposals, they should put effort into writing said proposals.

Thus, OWL recommends a vote AGAINST the at-vote resolution, "On The Majesty Of Elephants".

This resolution will be at vote between midnight EDT on April 3rd 2023 and midnight EDT on April 7th 2023.

either put some actual significant effort or none at all.

i'd have supported a tautological one-liner with zero effort or i'd have supported some truly high effort trolling

this one isn't nearly good enough to be the latter and takes itself too seriously to be the former.

i am personally very much against though you'll probably still end up getting TGW's vote because enough people there think it's funny
