Draft: Repeal GAR 416: Ban on Ritual Sacrifice

Postby Wealthatonia » Tue Apr 23, 2019 4:58 pm

Seeing how this bill is an attack and displays obvious ethnocentristic views favoring religions and societies who have problems with this yet will allow their own "civil rights abuses"

Observing how the World Assembly is made up of different nations each with their own beliefs

Dismayed that some nations cannot accept what they perceive as "barbaric practices" and must impose their own beliefs upon other nations.

Wealthatonia as a recent member of the World Assembly wishes that this resolution be taken seriously as our yearly sacrifice of the homeless is done to cut down on homelessness, vagrancy, inequality and starvation and as a measure to bring entertainment to our masses that can afford it is a huge boost to our economy. It helps solve many of our problems, but as mentioned previously it is blatant Ethnocentrism from other nations who probably have a Colonial History of subjugation and would like to point out the hypocrisy of those nations who would take offense if you try to ban something from their own nations.

OOC: Even if this was a serious attempt, it'd be iIllegal for Honest Mistake (doesn't address the resolution text, instead ranting about other nations) and Branding (mentioning your nation by name).

(OOC: Welcome to the General Assembly. Unfortunately as Araukar has said, this proposal is illegal for a honest mistake and branding, as well as possibly being a joke proposal. In the future, I suggest looking at and familiarising yourself with the rules.

Also, GA #416 is a very well-crafted piece of legislation, so I don’t think you will have much luck in repealing it, even if you do make this legal.)
Hello! I’m a GAer and NS Roleplayer from the United Kingdom.

Any posts that I make as GenSec will be clearly marked as such and OOC. Conversely, my IC ambassador in the General Assembly is Ambassador Fortier. I’m always happy to discuss ideas about proposals, particularly if grammar or wording are in issue. I am also Executive Deputy Minister for the WA Ministry of TNP.
Kenmoria is an illiberal yet democratic nation pursuing the goals of communism in a semi-effective fashion. It has a very broad diplomatic presence despite being economically developing, mainly to seek help in recovering from the effect of a recent civil war. Read the factbook here for more information; perhaps, I will eventually finish it.

The main argument usable against #416 is that its ban extends even to consensual sacrifice.

OOC: I don't think consensuality would have been involved in what the OP described in the other thread. :P
