Improve Human Rights

A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.

Category: Human Rights

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: Jojoburgh

We need to have it so that nations who's citizens have little to no rights face punishment. Possible punishment can be economic sanctions. I think that would help it so that human rights improve.

Does nothing

Also seems to say that existing resolutions do not exist, so... contradiction? And also format failure and branding.

The Assembly Currency Act

A resolution to reduce barriers to free trade and commerce.

Category: Free Trade

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: Plena Aequalitatem

The General Assembly,

CONCERNED that the different currencies of the Member States within our Assembly are a barrier hurting trade between the nations within our Assembly;

UNDERSTANDING that it is hard for our Assembly to enforce or create financial regulations due to the different currencies of the nations within our Assembly;

DOES RESOLVE THAT:
1. The Assembly shall adopt the Dollar as its offical currency.

2. The Assembly shall present two options to its member States relating to their domestic policies dealing with the Dollar:
2a. A member State is encouraged to change its offical currency to the Dollar.
2b. A member State may still keep their own currency.
2c. If said member State follows 2b, they shall be required to tell the Assembly how much the unit value of their currency is worth in Dollars.

3. A member State shall be required to follow specific rules explaining how to comply with the regulations set in Section 2:
3a. Any member State that exists when this resolution is passed shall be required to follow either option 2a or 2b in two months' time.
3b. Any member State which is created after this resolution is passed shall be required to follow option 2a or 2b in three months' time(after they join our Assembly.) The same applies to any State which has already been created before the resolution but has not joined our Assembly until after its passing.

Pretty sure you can't do that.
----------------------------------------------
End The Death Penalty

A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.

Category: Human Rights

Strength: Strong

Proposed by: Swiatan

There needs to be a bill passed to end the death penalty. Killing people because they made mistakes is wrong. There needs to be alternative punishment other then the death penalty. It has to be made illegal for the whole world right now. Because the death penalty violates human rights.

contradiction with extant resolution

WAR ON ISLAMIC EXTREMISM AND RELIGIOUS CRIMINAL ACTS

A resolution to improve world security by boosting police and military budgets.

Category: International Security

Strength: Strong

Proposed by: Dependants

WAR ON ISLAMIC EXTREMISM (AS WELL AS
ANY ILLEGAL ACTIVITY COMITTED BY RELIGIOUS GROUPS SUCH AS CHILD RAPISTS AND TERRORISM)

Not against Muslims but against the backwards Islamic Ideology that supresses Millions. No Religion should be exempt from critism or incarseration for committing illegal acts.

BAN Sharia Law, only an individual nation's government should have the right to impose law on it's people and no court should undermine a nation's court systemc except that which applies International law.

BAN the burka, it is cultural clothing that comes with Sharia Law forcing women to wear it and directly undermining human rights & supressing women.

Those whom are on a government's Intelligence watchlists for known extremism or with known support for extremist organisations such as ISIS or Al Quada must be detained to prevent possible terrorist attacks thus saving many lives.

Full investigations & routine checks must be carried out on Religious Institutions such as Churches or Mosques & Religious Schools as to route out any Extremist preachers or pedophiles thus supplying protection for everyday worshipers & innocent children.

BAN the ISIS flag or any known extremist flags/propoganda from being flown or postered onto walls.

Any person who travels to another country to fight for an extremist organision should be free to do so but have their passport taken thus banning them from re-entry to commit terrorist atrosoties in the name of those extremist groups.

Was submitted, ruled illegal, withdrawn, then resubmitted. Note to author: It's still illegal.

RL references, probably more

Conversely, mental institutions shall also be required to not let patients who are still suicidial get out of their hospitals.

6. The ROSPB(Rights of Suicidial Patients Bureau) shall be created. It shall consist of 100 representatives, who in turn shall be voted upon by the population of the General Assembly as a whole once per year.

Between the first and second versions they dropped some RL references, a ban on FGM (illegal for duplication) and a ban on male circumcision (illegal for contradiction).

In other words this:
Compulsory voting for regional delegates

Category: Political Stability
Strength: Mild

I believe everyone should vote and here's why

Noting - Regional delegates are chosen by there regions to represent them so they must vote
Realising - that regions can simply change who there delegate is

Acknowledging - that sometimes people are inactive
believing - that they should atleast say how long there going to be gone for.

1. Regional delegates must vote on all proposals if they can get passed the first stage.
2. A regional delegate has to inform people/regions for how long they will be gone for .
3. If a regional delegate does not vote and has no reason why should have the position as regional delegate questioned by there region

Game mechanics and branding.

Cesnica, in the future post the actual proposal here. They'll likely be removed before most people can view the link's contents. Also, if they weren't game mechanics violations, it would have an active clause at least with clause #1, maybe also #2.

I'm calling it Meta-gaming (for the mention of delegates & regions), rather than Game Mechanics, because with all those "should"s it wouldn't actually do anything and thus wouldn't affect the mechanics...

Clause 1 has a "must", though. Saying "(someone) must (do something)" works as an active clause. If it was "member nations must (do something)", it'd be a viable active clause. Of course it's a bunch of illegality even then, because it addresses regional delegates, but that one is an active clause.

IC- The Federation of Keshiland stands for freedom and local governance. Requirements for state hood. A territory atleast 1,000 KL and a population of atleast 100k. Our Constitution keeps us free and can only be changed with a 3/4ths ratification of the states.

Realizes that barbaric nations need such a law to keep citizens safe.

Bans- The killing of political opponents
Bans- The killing of civilians that have not been found guilty in court
Requires- The WA Nations to enforce laws that ban the unjustified killing of other civilians
Bans- The killing of non citizens living in the nation
Bans- The killing or execution of citizens, or residents under the age of majority each nation
Bans- The killing of citizens or residents based on color, species, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, language, or religion.

Category violation? Should be Furtherment of Democracy...?

It also runs afoul of at least 6 existing resolutions. Namely GA #194 and possibly GA #37, GA #180

It seems meant to ban killing by governments, but is so badly worded that it bans killing by private individuals as well. I'm going to mark it as illegal for being too much of a mixture between 'Human Rights' (the ban on official killings) and 'Moral Decency' (the ban on unofficial ones).
There's duplication of #37, but a limited amount of duplication within a larger proposal can be allowed so I won't mark it down for that although I can't speak for my colleagues on that point. At first glance it looks okay with respect to #180 & #194; What are the other resolutions in your "at least 6"?

Proposals that have their own threads, should not be posted here.

The murder ban one has a thread: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=413416

Both duplicates (majorly!) and contradicts GA #375, Crime and Punishment, contradiction due to the "equal before law" part of CoCR as pointed out above. Taking #375 and CoCR together, they seem to cover everything this crap proposal is wanting to do.

And it also contradicts GA #180, A Decriminalization of Suicide.

The "requires" clause also seems to amend previous resolutions that mention restricting civilian killing(s).



Still OOC: Do I really need to make an official Legality Challenge for this shit, or will the GenSec refuse to deal with it otherwise?
