That seems to be becoming a trend. Just like the plagiarism case earlier. If people actually learn from it, then I guess that's a good thing, but I feel it might be just to avoid punishment...

EDIT: Bah, wrong account.

Either or both of these are fine. Ever since GenSec took over policing the updated proposal queue, 'punishments' (i.e. mod warnings) have pretty much stopped except in cases of obscenity, spam, or blatant and unrepentant plagiarism. The 'Illegal' heading has probably reached more players than this thread ever did, so opportunities for learning abound.

Further Believing nations and citizens will adapt to changes made,

The World Assembly Herby,

1. Requires all automobiles to be banned from the road for one day per week,

I.) Corrosponding with the last digit of their license plate,

3. Nothing will change in nations which have banned cars,

4. In nations which do not follow the seven day week, changes will be made to this schedule.

RL references are the only thing I see. Also, I don't know why the WA would 'Herby' anything.

Make Chicken Tendies The Official International Food

A resolution to develop industry around the world.

Category: Advancement of Industry

Area of Effect: Protective Tariffs

Proposed by: LimpBizkit

Before you read this, this is not intended as a joke. Everything in this proposal is absolutely dead serious. Read on.

I , the United States of LimpBizkit, believe the current amount and availability of chicken tendies/tenders is insufficient. Such a universal and delicious dish should surely be treated as an international treasure, and this is what I am proposing.
What to do:
-Make chicken tendies an international delicacy
-Serve chicken tendies in restaurants internationally, by law
-Stock chicken tendies in grocery stores internationally, by law
-Improve wages of people in the Chicken Tendies Industry
I believe the CTI (Chicken Tendies Industry) is a growing industry now that we have technology that can prepare food in seconds. And while this growing industry is operating, I believe its' employees, the beautiful shining people who make tendies available for everyone in NationStates, should have higher wages. These heroes should not have to worry over bankruptcy, they should enjoy their lives in the same way they make everyone else enjoy theirs.
I also believe chicken tendies should be available nearly everywhere. If they are to become an international delicacy (big "if") tendies should obviously be commercially available in nearly every eatery and grocery store/supermarket, for the same reason cake is available nearly everywhere, the reason of being used during occasions and other everyday uses.
Thank you for taking time out of your day to read this.

Salvation Of The Poor

A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.

Category: Human Rights

Strength: Strong

Proposed by: The Coran States

Slaves shall be outlawed
Social Equality will be put to the highest level
Racism and sexism is treated with prison
The government will provide funding to areas like welfare
Undeveloped areas will get humanitarian aid
An undeveloped country will get aid from the WA
Taxes will be higher for the wealthy but low for the poor
Appropriate schooling will be provided to all areas
The homeless will receive an unused property for free
The minimum wage will be established to 20 dollars an hour

Overall, citizens of countries everywhere will have better lives.
The golden age is at hand.

Hodge Podge of contradiction and duplication.

Graffiti Is Art

A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.

Category: Human Rights

Strength: Mild

Proposed by: Romedian

Citizens should be allowed to graffiti - to an extent.

Graffiti on the side of a building can make the building unique and stand out.

If a business does not want their building to have graffiti, a sign in the front of the building will be placed.
Violators of this sign will be prosecuted.

No foul language or gang symbols are permitted.
Violators will be prosecuted.

This art around the world will attract tourists, and will therefore improve the economy.

Not seeing this as "human rights".

The Black Market Weapons Act Of 2017

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

Category: International Security

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: Zokk

In response to the illegal trafficking of arms across borders both with and without the knowledge of the nation where such action is known or suspected to occur, and to the increased activity of terrorist groups of all scales, this resolution, if adopted, will do the following:

1.) Automatically impose trade sanctions on the offending nation with the intent of preventing said nation from successfully of trading its goods internationally. The severity of the sanction(s) imposed shall be voted upon by the General Assembly and shall reflect the severity of the infraction.

2.) The trade sanctions shall be specifically targeted to industries and/or trade goods that are of the greatest need or generate the greatest revenue for the nation in question, and multiple individual sanctions of varying severity may be used in accordance with recommendations and votes by the General Assembly.

3.) The sanctions shall remain in place for not less than one year, unless the offending nation agrees to legally binding action(s) to combat further arms trafficking, takes specific action(s) of its own accord to better secure its borders against illegal arms trafficking, secures assistance from other nations to improve its security and/or assist with arms trafficking interdiction, and commits its own resources and/or peacekeeping forces/military to assist in the global effort to reduce arms trafficking and combat international terrorist activities.

4.) A sanctioned nation may appeal its sanctions to the General Assembly for their lifting at any time after their imposition.

5.) Sanctions can only be lifted if the sanctioned nation can show evidence that has been independently verified to be true that actions to combat illegal arms trafficking have been undertaken and/or have been shown to be successful, or if the General Assembly votes to lift said sanctions due to appeal by the sanctioned nation.

6.) The General Assembly may consider each sanctioned nation's economic effects during the course of the sanctions' imposition and vote to increase or decrease the severity of the sanctions based upon factors that include, but are not limited to, humans rights, societal detriments, governmental lapses or shortfalls, natural disasters, or a hostile power engaging in aggressive action that directly affects the sanctioned nation.

7.) A nation that has served its one year of sanctions will have its situation re-assessed at the end of that period, and if the nation is found to be in compliance with directives and actions to curtail, interdict, cease, or otherwise interfere with illegal arms trafficking, the sanctions shall be immediately lifted.

8.) A nation that has served its one year of sanctions that is not found to be in compliance or adequately complying with directives and actions to curtail illegal arms trafficking will be subject to additional sanctions according to the voted direction of the General Assembly.

9.) The General Assembly may not vote to engage in police actions or enter into war with the offending/sanctioned nation using this resolution as a foundation, but must instead vote on such action in a separate and specific resolution.

10.) All votes by the General Assembly to impose, lift, or otherwise modify sanctions on an offending nation shall by executed by simple majority.

Category: Advancement of Industry

Area of Effect: Environmental Deregulation

Proposed by: Kulgrak Space-Fairers

Proposes: A set of laws to limit/prevent any harm that could occur to celestial bodies outside and inside of our solar system

The following are a set of laws to be set into action

1.) No nation shall now fourth set foot on any celestial bodies excluding earth if the spacecraft has not been decontaminated of all earth life excluding humans - any human on bored must have gone through a sterilization process - this includes probes

Kulgrak space-fairers define a sterilization process as: removing any foreign bodies of life weather that be bacteria or insects that is not native to the human body and is refereed to as a hijacker organism.

The Kulgrak Space-Fairers Define a Hijacker organism as any organism that does not originate from the human body.

The Kulgrak Define space-craft as anything that has the ability to fly through the vacuum of space and remain functional, the craft must contain a pilot, if it lacks a pilot it will be refereed to as a probe

The Kulgrak define a probe as any unmanned space craft that has the ability to function in the void.

2.) The craft must be totally devoid of any device/weapons that are designed with the task to cause harm to local life on any celestial body, including earth bound life.

The Kulgrak Define weapons as anything with the soul purpose the cause harm to living things.

3.) The Location of this spacecraft must be open to the public at all times, the whereabouts must be released publicly, any privet space craft development that is kept secret will be made illegal, the development of a spacecraft must be announced three weeks before construction begins.

4.) In order to construct a craft you must gain approval from the region Delegate, nations with out regions will be denied the right to construct there space craft, as this would allow them to do so secretly allowing them to bypass any law set in place by this act.

5.) A regional Space Agency will be required, nations will be denied to run there own agency and instead will employ civilians into the Regional space agency.

The Kulgrak define a region as an area made up of one or more nations, the region would have a selected delegate, e.c.t, an example is The South Pacific.

The Kulgrak define a Space agency as: A Government run program with the soul purpose of sending equipment or space craft into space with the objective of research .

Category: Repeal

Resolution: GA#2

Proposed by: Leondaldal

General Assembly Resolution #2 “Rights and Duties of WA States” (Category: Political Stability; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

OBSERVING that this resolution is allowing corrupt non-democratic government to exist, oppress there citizens and break international law also it forces democratic paradises with very high civil rights to slash the political freedoms in the name of law and order.
ACCEPTING this resolution is flawed in many ways.
HENCEFORTH non-democratic governments shall be against international law and if they do not improve civil rights and political freedoms or they shall be ejected from the WA and political freedoms and civil rights will also be improved on a worldwide scale

Military Weaponry Regulations And Restrictions

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

Category: International Security

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: Jackany

To The World Assembly,

To prevent unprecedented armageddon and mass destruction to nations in the case of a nuclear war, the People's Republic of Jackany would like to propose some regulations and restrictions to the sizes and arsenal of a nation's military:

1.) A nation cannot have a military that occupies over 45% of the nation's population, unless mandated by the World Assembly for special circumstances.

2.) A nation's nuclear arsenal must contain less than or equal to 15 total nuclear warheads. Chemical weapons should be outlawed, and the cap on ballistic missiles shall not exceed 12,000.

3.) The proposed experimental weapons brought up by a nation must be approved by the Regional Delegate. If a nation is not associated with any region, they cannot use the weapon.

4.) Budget toward offense-based military spending should be less than 1/2 of the spending for defenses in a nation.

5.) All guns shall pass a examination and shall be able to effectively use 5,56×45mm cartridges. The weapon itself shall be able to penetrate at least 2 inches through a solid iron sheet, from a minimum distance of 100 feet from the sheet itself, with a max range of 430 feet, to prevent over-abuse of power in a firearm.

6.) Police in a nation are required to carry a non-lethal firearm, but one that can take out a suspected felon or active shooter quickly and flawlessly.

Concerned that a nation could use nation or even region-ending weaponry, The People's Republic of Jackany would ask the World Assembly not only to pass legislation on the issue, but also to enforce these regulations in all participating regions.

With Regards, The People's Republic of Jackany

Branding, Metagaming

Also that made me laugh at the mental imagery generated of gun testers trying to stab solid iron with guns... too bad this is no longer known as the "Silly/Illegal" thread. :lol2:

Yeah, me too. I'm guessing the author don't know much about guns, because of these requirements are downright laughable.

International Human Rights Act

A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.

Category: Human Rights

Strength: Strong

Proposed by: Uary

Observing that there is currently no guarantee of justice for those accused of criminal acts.

Noting that convictions are often unsafe due to the absence of any legal requirements for a trial under international law

Remarking that miscarriages of justice are common.

Believing that it should be everyone’s right to be protected from malicious and unfair prosecution by law.

Further believing that the more rigorous examination of evidence seen in a fair trial will lead to fewer innocent people being unfairly punished.

Hereby mandates that all WA member nations guarantee a fair trial to anyone facing prosecution in their territory, in accordance with the following requirements:

Article 1 § That the accused be seen as innocent until proven guilty beyond all reasonable doubt, thus placing the onus of proof on the prosecuting authority.

Article 2 § That the defendant be given the right to present his case or to be represented by a person of his choosing.

Article 3 § That the evidence shall be considered by an impartial jury of no less than 5 people and presided over by a judge with knowledge of the laws being applied and the requirements for a trial.

Article 4 § That all persons shall have the right to remain silent when questioned, and exercising this right shall not be used as evidence against them in court.

Article 5 § That information and testimony may not be extracted under duress or using any form of physical or psychological torture.

Article 6 § That the defendant shall have the right to question any witness who provides evidence.

Article 7 § That the defendant be entitled to appeal against both the sentence and verdict that has been passed.

Article 8 § That any punitive sentence passed by a court be proportional to the crime committed.

Article 9 § That the proceedings of the trial conclude within a reasonable time period.

Lets see here, how much duplication?
Prevention of Torture
Fairness in Criminal Trials
Ban on Ex Post Facto Laws
For the Wrongly Convicted
Extradition Rights
Preventing Multiple Trials
Habeas Corpus
Convict Appellate Rights
Access to Courts
No Penalty Without Law
Crime and Punishment

Are they going for a new record?

Reduction Of Electoral Interference

A resolution to increase democratic freedoms.

Category: Furtherment of Democracy

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: Black Nazis

The World assembly,
Gravely concerned by the Russian Federation’s proven interference in the American presidential election of 2016,

Affirming the considerable potential for such actions to undermine legitimate governance systems,

Emphasising the incompatibility of such actions with the upholding of a member state’s sovereignty,

Alarmed by the demonstrated potential of such actions to engender civil unrest and violence,

Calling upon the International Court of Justice in its role as an efficient settler of inter-state disputes,

Affirming further the right of a state to protect its government from interference, particularly when that interference constitutes a direct undermining of democratic processes,

Highlighting the need to strongly address the matter of inter-state political interference before such actions are able to become any more commonplace,

Acting under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations,

1) Unequivocally condemns the Russian Federation for its interference in the American presidential election of 2016;

2) Designates the following actions, when committed by or on behalf of a state government, ‘acts of political interference’:

i. Distribution of propaganda intended to influence the outcome of an election in another state (via printed, audiovisual, online or any other relevant means),
ii. Any public statement made in support or denunciation of an electoral candidate or political party in another state,
iii. Release of information, gained via espionage, pertaining to an electoral candidate or political party in another state,
iv. Any action, the effect of which is to undermine the legitimacy of an election occurring in another state;

3) Prohibits any and all acts of political interference;

4) Specifies that the International Court of Justice (the ICJ) shall be empowered to, if called upon by a signatory state, determine whether an act of political interference has been committed, and if so, enforce any remedy it deems appropriate;

5) Recommends that the ICJ, if it concludes that a state has committed an act of political interference, have that state pay monetary compensation for any unrest, violence or property damage caused or intensified by its destabilising actions;

6) Recommends further that states, if they suspect themselves to be the subject of ongoing acts of political interference, take the necessary means to end those acts, including but not limited to the shutting down of communication channels being used to transmit interfering propaganda;

7) Encourages the unilateral enforcement of diplomatic and/or economic sanctions against states found to have committed an act of political interference;

8) Decides to remain actively seized of the matter.

Just one big RW reference from start to finish.
