[Second Draft] Legalizing Prostitution

[Great Azarath]

"Now, I have pointed out earlier that WAR#4 Restrictions on Child Labor bans anyone under the age of consent from working as a prostitute. This is the exact wording:



I am concerned that the following clause of the submitted proposal is illegal for contradicting the ban cited above:



I could of course be wrong and I doubt that the proposal would reach quorum anyway, but I thought that I should share this legality concern and I hope that it could be addressed."

That definitely looks like an illegal contradiction to me: Have you contacted the Mods about it?

It is already said that a child cannot work a job like this, so there isn't a point to it.

[Alqania]

No it doesn't. That resolution is in effect, my resolution must also follow that one. By the rules of the game I think it doesn't conflict.

"From Your Excellency's statement, it seems there is some confusion on how the rules work."

That definitely looks like an illegal contradiction to me: Have you contacted the Mods about it?

OOC: Not yet, I wasn't sure about it, but considering your feedback I'll go ahead and do so. A GHR is the correct procedure since it's submitted, right?

[Great Azarath]

My Nation agrees to this as it is legal here and controlled by the goverment.

I applaud you.

[Alqania]

"What?"

I had a choice. Either I submit it last night, or submit it and not be able to constantly watch it. I choose to submit it.

"Then Your Excellency admits that Your Excellency's statement about not having a choice was false."

[Mahaj]

"What?"

I had a choice. Either I submit it last night, or submit it and not be able to constantly watch it. I choose to submit it.

Or you could not submit it.

No it doesn't. That resolution is in effect, my resolution must also follow that one. By the rules of the game I think it doesn't conflict.

Yep, GHR.

[Dizyntk]

"I can happily say that the Dizyntk have the regulations to squash this idea in our nation ready to roll in the, extremely unlikely, event of this horrendous proposal getting passed. Once again, I would like to thank the author for kindly leaving in not only the loopholes to do this, but also an encouragement in the proposal itself to do so."

A lot of proposals say that. You cannot just pinpoint mine. And yeah that does conflict with it.

"A lot of proposals I do not, necessarily, disagree with. And, conflict? Conflict with what? You are making absolutely no sense, Ambassador. Again."

[Great Azarath]

I had a choice. Either I submit it last night, or submit it and not be able to constantly watch it. I choose to submit it.

"Then Your Excellency admits that Your Excellency's statement about not having a choice was false."

No, as said right above. I have a choice.

[Mahaj]

"Then Your Excellency admits that Your Excellency's statement about not having a choice was false."

No, as said right above. I have a choice.

You didn't say that earlier.

[Great Azarath]

A lot of proposals say that. You cannot just pinpoint mine. And yeah that does conflict with it.

"A lot of proposals I do not, necessarily, disagree with. And, conflict? Conflict with what? You are making absolutely no sense, Ambassador. Again."

Yes, I am making sense. Try thinking, you might realize I was speaking of that thing your doing within your nation.

GHR?

[Dizyntk]

Yes, I am making sense. Try thinking, you might realize I was speaking of that thing your doing within your nation.

'You do not know what my nation is doing, Ambassador. I can assure you that it will follow the letter of this propsal exactly, should it pass, and still keep this profession completely unheard of in our borders."

[Mahaj]

Or you could not submit it.


Yep, GHR.

GHR?

GHR

[Alqania]

"Then Your Excellency admits that Your Excellency's statement about not having a choice was false."

No, as said right above. I have a choice.

"This is exactly what Your Excellency said:"

I didn't have a choice unfortunately.

[Alqania]

GHR?

GHR

OOC: I lodged a GHR a few minutes ago.

[Mahaj]

GHR

OOC: I lodged a GHR a few minutes ago.

OOC: awesome

[Flibbleites]

Why oh why oh why have you submitted this proposal?

Do our opinions not matter? Does the poll not matter?

Yes, your opinions matter a great deal to me. The poll encouraged me to do this!

So, what? All those "NO" votes are some sort of reverse psychology thing?

Bob Flibble

Bob, look at the YES as well!

[Flibbleites]

Bob Flibble
WA Representative

Bob, look at the YES as well!

I see them, but I see more "no"s than "yes"s, which tells me that you don't have the support to pass this.

Bob Flibble

Bobby boy, don't you know some votes are worth more than others? Dont you know there are people who commented, but didn't vote.

[Dizyntk]

I see them, but I see more "no"s than "yes"s, which tells me that you don't have the support to pass this.

Bob Flibble

"Are you really that foolish? Ambassador Flibble has been a member of this body since it went by the UNspeakable name. He has authored successful resolutions. He is, in another guise, one of our beloved Mods. I would wager he knows considerably more about this subject than you are probably capable of learning."

[Mahaj]

I see them, but I see more "no"s than "yes"s, which tells me that you don't have the support to pass this.

Bob Flibble
WA Representative

Bobby boy, don't you know some votes are worth more than others? Dont you know there are people who commented, but didn't vote.

And why would those powerful votes not be against this?

[Slivary]

So what are you going to do when it doesn't reach quorm this time?

[Mahaj]

So what are you going to do when it doesn't reach quorm this time?

Resubmit it, obviously. He has no choice.

[Slivary]

So what are you going to do when it doesn't reach quorm this time?

Resubmit it, obviously. He has no choice.

Is he just going to keep resubmitting it. I'd like to see that happen. This topic is going to be 1000 pages long by the time he gives up

[Dizyntk]

"With any luck, Ambassador SaDiablo can get his proposal passed and that will put an end to this silliness."
