Huh? I just tried TGing Brians Room, who to my knowledge doesn't have me on ignore, from Gruenberg. The text was this:
Hi. You mentioned you'd be interested in supporting a repeal of "Right To Divorce". We've been discussing a draft, and come up with this. Thoughts?
The United Nations,
NOTING the recent passage of "Right To Divorce",
CONCERNED at a number of failures of said resolution,
OBSERVING that given that the resolution only creates a right, where divorce 'may be granted', the final decision still rests with national or local courts, who would be better placed to judge the circumstances of the case anyway,
DEEPLY DISTURBED by clause 3, which enforces parental rights in such a way that it is illegal to deny regular access to the child to a parent who is assessed being a significant risk to the child, even where such parent has been convicted of crimes such as sexual molestation of children or infanticide,
BELIEVING it to be mistaken to base post-divorce visitation rights exclusively on the circumstances of divorce,
RECOGNISING that it would be better to have visitation and other rights assessed on a case-by-case basis by a local agency, better appraised of the facts of the individual situation, where the welfare of the child, as well as the rights of the parents, could be taken into consideration,
NOTING FURTHER that the definition used in the resolution does not extend any rights to those in polyandrous or polygamous relationships, and as such enforces one particular set of values,
DEEPLY CONSCIOUS that clause 1.5 opens up the possibility that someone attempting to gain a divorce in order to extort alimony payments could be legitimately granted such opportunity by simply registering two complaints,
CONVINCED that the resolution constitutes an attempt at inappropriate micromanagement, where many of its provisions would be more effectively delegated to national or more local agencies,
REMAINING OPEN to the possibility replacement legislation that legislates a 'right to divorce' without resorting to unnecessary micromanagement:
REPEALS "Right To Divorce".
I got the message 'This request failed a security check'. I was logged in, the TG doesn't contain any inappropriate language...what does this mean? I hadn't seen the message before.
