Banning torture resolution. STOP THE HUMAN RIGHTS!

08-12-2003, 00:01
NO!!!!!! IM TRYING TO BE A CRAZY DICTATOR BUT I CAN'T DO THAT WHEN HUMAN RIGHTS ACTIVIST PEOPLE ARE VOTING FOR HUMAN RIGHTS ETC.....! SO STOP IT! ANY DICTATOR OR CONSUMERISTS PLEASE VOTE !~*AGAINST*~! THE NEWEST RESOLUTION TO OUTLAW TORTURE THAT HAS A STRONG EFFECT ON HUMAN RIGHTS. PLEASE CONVINCE OTHERS TOO.
08-12-2003, 00:04
Agreed. The Kingdom of Skullzz will not take part in the banning of such a beautiful art as torture. I have voted against the resolution, but I fear it may be in vain. The ignorant masses of the world seem to believe human rights are the answer to all their problems. Human rights will be our undoing. Should this resolution pass, The Kingdom of Skullzz will leave the UN and allow a lesser nation to become regional delegate.

every nation should be ruled by a single minded dictatorship governement. WITHOUT HUMAN RIGHTS EVERYONE!

You would think differently if you sent your highest government officials for a stay in one of Skullzz's pristine resorts. I think the beachside "Lament of Thousands of Tortured Souls" would be an excellent getaway. On me, what do you think?
08-12-2003, 02:41
If you come to Jaru you would find it not so easy to take...It is a rugged land..With a rugged and Native people...But still a people of the 21st century..You would not find it so easy..

You are a nation of 5 million people. Surely you don't consider yourself a match for a nation of 405 million? :lol: I can easily field a soldier for every citizen of your nation, and then some. Your mobile trash cans will not last five minutes against the Kingdom of Skullzz. :twisted:

If you don't agree with the UN quit. it's that simple
08-12-2003, 03:09
Not only is this resolution daft in what it calls for but the implacations of it could do if passed is great. This is useless for who would impose the fine on the country that uses torture. Then along with that a life is now just worth a fine that is imposed after death. If anything this resolution needs to be redone to have stronger powers for it to have an use anywhere. Though don't do that for what it wants to do now it is too strong. The UN was set up to help the nations of this server come to terms with their problems. It was not created to invade the soverginty of the member nations and impose the will of other nations on lesser ones. The banning of landmine I was and is against though it had world implacations. This on the other hand deals with the internal running of the nation. It interfers with the way I want to get testomoy and how I wish to run my court system. You, the people wishing to pass this, want to come in and tell me how to run my nation. This is something I will not have. :!: I ask that all nations vote against this resolution not because they disagree with it but because it seeks to curb our nations independence. :!:

Your futile attempts at blackmail are nothing short of amusing. Skullzz is currently unmarried, your lies are worse than those of the American they call Bush. And we have no Vice President either! Skullzz alone is leader, there is no Vice Skullzz! :lol: Quit while you still can, Jaru. I would hate to have to destroy you with such impunity.

I thought I already told you to be careful with your negotiations with the Kingdom. Our nation does not need your drugs, and you're lucky you're even in a position to ask for favors. I think an apology from the government of Jaru is in order if they truly value the lives of their citizens.

Your gods are powerless against an atheist Kingdom. We torture as an art form, and all we ask is that our art be respected. Is it so much to ask that our artists are respected?

We do not have museums. We have public access dungeons. Photographs are taken of torture victims and those are put in foriegn art galleries.

I force nobody to abide by my rules. I do not push my ways onto neighboring nations, and my own citizens are free to leave at any time. Obviously, considering my 405 million and growing population, the people do not have a problem with my ruthless leadership.

For starters this is a blatant offense against national sovereignity. Secondly, how is the UN going to prove any of this or create an agency that will ferret out all those nations? Thirdly, who are these idiots who right this drivel up? I've read tabloids that bear more merit than the current crop of UN resolutions.

That's the whole nature of the resolution. It's "If you don't agree with it, SCREW YOU" and force people to comply.

Thank you, this is a point that nobody understands. I am tired of being bullied by the UN, they should not have such control over what I do to my citizens in MY nation. I founded this nation, and have led it since its conception. NO international organization is going to tell me that I cannot allow torture. :evil:

And that is why I am so strongly against the resolution. I've said it before, and I'll say it again. If this ridiculous resolution is to pass, I will leave the UN, and I will have to put the responsibility of UN Delegate of the Bowels of Hell on another set of shoulders.

Despite the fact that the original author of this thread is an insane dictator, he has a good point. National sovereignty is constantly being abused in NationStates. If the crazy dictator governments want to torture their citizens, they have that right. Plus, the resolution is the most poorly-worded piece of junk I've ever read, but that's a different issue. And don't try to tell me that we should just leave the UN if we don't like it. Everyone has to take a loss once in a while, but that doesn't mean we can't keep our opinions (and voice them too).
