I doubt he was planning on it. if he were to mention them, it would hurt his arguement, rather than help it.
The new Russia was in trouble. Prime Minister Putin was concerned, and thus, through the ancient art of necromancy, he revived the great leader, Uncle Joe.

"Stalin!" he cried as the ghost materialised in his office. "The Motherland is in trouble, what do I do?"

Stalin looked grave for a moment before answering.

"My son" he said pensively. "You must round up all the liberals in the country and have them shot. Then, you must paint the Kremlin building blue."

"Why blue?" Putin asked, confused.

Stalin boomed with laughter "I knew you wouldn't as about the first part!"

and he has already shown a clear lack of interest in backing up his argument with any studies or examples. This is him wanting to legislate his own personal feelings regardless of any logic.

You left out the part where if boots are hung up by their laces to dry, then there is the danger of somebody accidently strangling themselves on the laces. This cannot be tolerated.
Everything you know about me is wrong. Or a rumor. Something like that.

OOC: Okay, perhaps the most irritating thing about this thread. The [proposal] tag is not how you propose something.

Ah, but some here have no discernable sense of humour. Sad but true. ;)

OOC: No, Stratskava has a habit of using it as if it's how you actually propose something.

OOC: I have observed some ambassadors have confused the "proposal" tag as being part of the proposal syntax when it isn't.

Welcome to 1938.

I thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards to avenge even a look that threatened her with insult. But the age of chivalry is gone. That of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded; and the glory of Europe is extinguished for ever.

To the OP, I find it funny you come into the WA and plead for the banning of several classes of weapons, yet looking in the SC section you post your military power. Thats general turd like behavior.
