[PASSED] Repeal Condemn Macedon

Postby Concrete Slab » Sun Dec 09, 2018 1:56 pm

The Security Council,

Understanding SC 1 is a historical resolution notable for being the first resolution in the Security Council.

Believing two condemnations is illogical for a region that, as well as its allies, is no longer active.

Adding a SC resolution should provide substantial evidence a target deserves a condemnation.

Noting the first condemnation was deserved, however, the resolution did not sufficiently explain why Macedon was deserving of condemnation.

Acknowledging Kuriko's condemnation of Macedon in SC #269 goes much further in depth about why Macedon deserves a condemnation.

Noting the aforementioned second condemnation resolution was drafted and passed with the intent of repealing SC 1.

Understanding SC #1 has been replaced and is no longer needed.

Hereby repeals Condemn Macedon

Co- authored by Lord Dominator, Kuriko, and Praeceps

BELIEVING, however, TWO condemnations is absurd for a region that has, as well as its allies, ceased to exist.

APPLAUDING Kuriko for showing the entity of NationStates the evil Macedon has inflicted.

BELIEVING his resolution goes much more in-depth about why Macedon deserves a condemnation.

FURTHER BELIEVING two condemnations only serve to give the region more attention.


UNDERSTANDING the resolution is no longer needed

I’m pretty sure Kuriko already plans to get rid of the shitty first condemnation and has something drafted for it, so this isn’t really necessary.

I wonder if there'd be enough support to repeal the recently passed condemnation in favor of preserving the historical one instead. Probably not, but this entire situation feels like it's been a mess.

The new condemn passed because the old one was terribly written. There’s no point preserving it now that a better one has passed.

From what I hear, Concrete Slab and Praetor are working together on a repeal now. I'm just hoping it doesn't take too much longer.....

Seems there's several people that want to keep the original's historic value and don't care for the new one. There's probably enough numbers to force the old repeal through but there's definitely some divisiveness over it.

This is a hypocritical argument when one of the coauthors wrote the second, "illogical" condemnation. I suggest you remove it.
Acknowledging Kuriko condemnation of Macedon in SC #269 goes much further in depth about why Macedon deserves a condemnation.

Kuriko needs an " 's " there.

Macedon's activities were so long ago that even though the new one is more detailed I didn't support it in the first place. The new one is unnecessary because Macedon has been inactive, dead really that the new one is pointless. The original one is SC#1, a piece of history. It was also written when Macedon was active and had earned the condemnation which is why I'd rather repeal the new one.

It's going to be really sad if this passes. Don't buy the argument that repealing a proposal doesn't remove it from history. If we want to give Macedon two condemnations, that feels more appropriate than repealing the very first proposal of the SC. Removing historical content simply because the proposal doesn't match the standards of today is beyond silly.

Agreed, I hope this does not pass.

I can't quite understand why people are hesitant to remove the old resolution on grounds of seniority. That's the bloody point of a flexible law system, so that the new can advance beyond the old!

I thought that adding an extra condemnation just for clarification was unfair, so I believe that this is a perfect way to wrap it up.
If you were expecting a more off-the-walls, horrifically brutal travesty of a country, consider a visit to our colonies. They deal with all the nasties, so we don't have to.

You're a nation of 50 million pop, want to explain a little more clearly why you don't want it repealed if you just started playing this game? And its Macedon, not Macedona. Also, there's a new condemnation on the books anyways.

Following the updated condemnation of Macedon, I believe this original resolution is pretty much useless in its current state, seeing that there is an updated version. I approve of this, whilst it is a historical piece of Nation States history it isn't that important anymore.

First of all Populations don't matter it has to do with a Government of Dictatorship that is why you would have a condemn region. So I respect your yes vote I do not get it. But I have they are having a second condemn vote okay then. As far as newness I am not too but a little new I do understand how the game works lately.

This region is the reason we have the SC/liberations. They still control the regions. I don't really understand why people even want to repeal it, it's like destroying the old cave drawings because they aren't relevant anymore.
