Note: Do not vote on this proposal, it contradicts a resolution and therefore cannot be sent forward until the Universal Bill of Rights is repealed.

I personally like the idea of it, but the specifics seem too "light". Why should there be a point where the UNART will intervene? I'd like to think that ALL cases of racism, no matter how severe or numerous, should be dealt with, not the "fifth" incident. What is someone going to do if they were beaten by people racist against them, and it was their first attack? Wait to be beaten again, and again? I don't think that's fair. Plus I do think this is covered elsewhere.

This has not been approved.

Too bad I can't edit my proposal to change it. The limit idea is there to cut down false reports but then again, now I see that this could be more of a deterrent than a safeguard. So this proposal will fall flat on the floor.

Also, the UNART could then become a fallback, if the local forces can't do anything immediately.

Damnit, I'm beginning to hate my own proposal :headbang:

Forget it. We will not allow our freedom of speech and expression to be gutted in such a manner, nor will we ever let anybody but our own police and justice system act within our borders. This proposal is just ridiculous, and also, I suspect, illegal.

This proposal is illegal, as it violates the protection of free speech set down in the Universal Bill of Rights.

And even if it wasn't, our far superior species may not be willing to go along with it. Hell, comming up with new ways to try to get around the national law declaring humans sentient to try to get them put in the same category as chimpanzees is almost a national sport.

OK then. Nobody vote on this proposal. Make sure it goes to the bottom of the floor. At least until the Universal Bill of Rights is repealed.

If a gamemod happens to pass by and look at this, could you please delete the corresponding proposal? Also, could a forummod lock/delete this topic? Thanks.

how can you ban racism, you can't ban how somone feels, you can tell them to but what about free speech, isn't free thought like that, I'm glad this is being taken down though.
