OOC:
So are you trying to propose new legislation or repeal previous legislation? Cause to me it looks like your trying to propose new legislation in a repeal.

Seigfried sighed and looked up over the top of his glasses. "Ambassador, are you the nation of Wezleana's ventriloquist dummy? This is a carbon copy of their proposal (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=548306). Also this is a direct one hundred and eighty degree course change from your previous proposal to encourage the use of psychotropic drugs for the betterment of 'good art'."

The Catwaban's grey eyes flashed down to look at the proposal. "I must ask, sir. What drug are you abusing at the moment and when will your 'counseling and rehabilitation' occur?"

all my views regarding pyschedelic drugs turned a 180, after i noticed that life would be better in the long run without drugs. Besides if you use pyschedelic drugs for art, only druggies probably would understand it. and lastly if you have not noticed, after i posted i announced very freely that i totally changed my mind and for the issue to drop, which took along time because people kept argueing about it, this is not a carbon copy because i corrected many mistakes, and also added other drugs.

No drug abuse for me, just a very "moldable mind*"

OK, so not only are you plagiarizing, you are attempting to introduce new legislation in a repeal? We STRONGLY urge you to read the proposal rules before you submit again, because at this rate you will surely be booted from these halls.~Saleed Assad
