More blog, this time a one-liner.

I'm not entirely sure this one is illegal. It's a one-liner, but that one line is an operational clause that tells nations what to do.

GAR#25 would prohibit arms manufacturers in member states from supplying weapons, including guns, to "extremist groups", accepting that "extremist groups" is another term for "terrorists"/"terrorist group". If we interpret GAR#25's first and third clauses as prohibiting/preventing access, then this is duplication.

Referencing repealed resolutions is not a house of cards violation, since a) those resolutions aren't active; b) the reference was vague. As for duplication, it does duplicate GAR#37.

Might I ask as to how? I've looked over #37 quite a bit, mostly to see if the Imperial Court System I had devised was in compliance, and nothing in it requires a Member State to have a jury in its courts.

Urges singular WA nations to require a fair and just trial to all accused persons

This part clearly duplicates much of GAR#37, which already spells out the requirements for fair and just criminal trials.

Mandates that all WA member nations implement a democratic jury in their criminal court systems

This clause is more interesting though. I'm not sure a "mandates" clause can do the same thing as an "urges", "encourages" or similar clause in existing legislation (e.g., GAR #37's "COMMENDS to the consideration of member nations a jury of the accused's peers as such trial adjudicators"), as technically that could be considered an amendment. Or contradiction. Or duplication. Take your pick.

It is the UN Universal Declaration of Human Right. A shortened variant of it, to be sure, but each of their articles is the first sentence of the UN UDHR articles. So, yeah, plagiarized.

Legalize Recreational Cocaine

A resolution to ban, legalize, or encourage recreational drugs.

Category: Recreational Drug Use
Decision: Legalize
Proposed by: Anti-Semitic Memers

Description: [b][u]Legalize Recreational Cocaine[u][b]

Under this proposal, all WA members must conform to legalizing the drug cocaine. We should enact this decriminalization for several reasons, which are listed below:

Promoting a free market will cripple the economy of illegal organizations.
Illicit drug activity rates will decrease.

Regulations and taxes on cocaine would both eliminate the drug problem [i]and[i] give the nations tax revenue.

Sales of illegal drugs are among the #1 cause of violence and death in most countries.

It is the moral right to legalize recreational cocaine, as it is unjust to take away the basic human right to consume what they want. The issue of drug crime would itself be solved with this proposal. This has clearly been proven before, and we will prove it now, with your delegation and its support. Thank you.

NS =/= Earth (and even if it were, those figures are bullshit), bloggish.

Right to Work

A resolution to develop industry around the world.


Category: Advancement of Industry

Area of Effect: Labor Deregulation

Proposed by: Dubnia

Description: The General Assembly,

Noting that many countries with large labor unions may require workers to join a union or pay dues to it,

Acknowledging that large unions that have control over employees in this manner are destructive to the end that they were created to strive towards,

Urges member nations to allow workers to choose whether or not to join a labor union;

Asks member nations to prevent labor unions from charging dues to non-members or requiring members of unions to perform certain actions not directly related to the execution of their job.


Already Covered and much better, so, pointless duplication.

Right to Work

A resolution to develop industry around the world.


Category: Advancement of Industry

Area of Effect: Labor Deregulation

Proposed by: Dubnia

Description: The General Assembly,

Noting that many countries with large labor unions may require workers to join a union or pay dues to it,

Acknowledging that large unions that have control over employees in this manner are destructive to the end that they were created to strive towards,

Urges member nations to allow workers to choose whether or not to join a labor union;

Asks member nations to prevent labor unions from charging dues to non-members or requiring members of unions to perform certain actions not directly related to the execution of their job.


Already Covered and much better, so, pointless duplication.

Also wrong category. It should be in Social Justice.


No. Weakening labor unions is definitely AoI/Labor Deregulation.

I was more looking at the "giving every worker a right to join a union".

That wouldn't be social justice either. Rather, that would fall under human rights.

Sexual Health and Education Act

A resolution to promote funding and the development of education and the arts.


Category: Education and Creativity

Area of Effect: Educational

Proposed by: Zenatias

Description: The purpose of this act is to ensure that all public school students of specified ages are given access to factual, educational, non-threatening material in regards to sexual education.

ACKNOWLEDGING- That due to certain cultural/religious/personal beliefs, many people encourage "abstinence-only" lessons for minors. However, "Comprehensive" Sex Education has proven to be more effective in terms of reducing the number of teenage pregnancies worldwide, and the spread of sexually-transmitted infections, as well as making minors feel more comfortable and informed about their bodies.

ESTABLISHING- That all public schools include comprehensive Sex Education as part of their course curriculum, for those aged 10 to 18 years old.

CLARIFYING- The aspects of the act

1) The curriculum must give students accurate information on STIs, teen pregnancy, reproductive rights, pubescence, sexuality, gender identity, human anatomy, and methods of birth control. For those between the ages of 10 and 13 years old, only information on pubescence, sexuality, gender identity, and human anatomy are required. For students aged 13 and up, the curriculum must include lessons on STIs, teenage pregnancy, reproductive rights, and birth control as well. Age-appropriateness should be taken into consideration when planning how to approach each topic.

2) Parents may exempt their children from the entire course through contacting the school. Children may be excused from a particular lesson if they find the material to be upsetting, offensive, or distressing. Every effort should be made to accommodate modest children who are embarrassed by course materials, such as not requiring such students to answer a given question out loud. Students excused from the required course will be required to take a standard health course instead. Students asking to be excused from a particular lesson may sit in the hallway outside of the classroom or go to a designated study hall at the discretion of the teacher.

3) This course will not advocate underage sexual activity. Instead, this course will make the children aware of the emotional and physical risks of underage sexuality, and will instruct them how to look out for their best interests. Class materials should be factual, non-threatening, and thorough. However, pornographic content is strictly prohibited; this includes pornographic videos, images, writings, and other visuals.

4) It is not mandatory for private education to systems to offer Sex Education lessons, but encouraged nonetheless.

HEREBY- Establishes mandatory Comprehensive Sexual Education curriculum in public schools worldwide.

Ages mandated. Ridiculous amount of micromanagement.
Everything you know about me is wrong. Or a rumor. Something like that.

I think we've forgotten the first word in this thread's title...
If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless. Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. | Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’
James 1:26-27, Matthew 7:21-23

This is why i Believe that basic income should be provided.
