Today, Generalissimo J.L. signed into law a new bill known as the Suppression of Communism, Subversion, and Terrorism Act. The act stipulated that:

*Anyone committed to a doctrine aimed at bringing about any political, industrial, social, or economic change within the Pest Control Company of Roach-Busters by the promotion of disturbance or disorder, by unlawful acts or ommissions, is to be legally classified as a communist, publicly whipped on the soles of the feet 100 times and thrown into a light-proof cell for 25 years or enslaved for the remainder of their life. This law also authorizes the Secretary of Law and Order to execute (by burning at the stake, crucifixion, stangulation hanging, or other cruel and horrible methods) any violator of this act that he deems to be "incapable of orderly, law-abiding behavior," or who "shows a strong affinity for radical left-wing ideals," or who "relishes committing acts of violence in order to advance such ideals."

*Anyone found guilty in a court of law of reading or distributing Marxist, socialist, or leftist literature is subject to a variety of penalties, which may include a fine of $25,000, being blinded, and/or 25 years imprisonment. Two offenses will result in execution by beheading if blinding was not administered in the first offense.

*Anyone who raises a clenched fist- be it in public or private- is subject to a fine of $500 and up to six months' imprisonment. If done multiple times or once by a confirmed communist, the hand is to be removed.

*Anyone who "expresses contempt or shows disrespect," for anticommunism or anticommunists is subject to ten years imprisonment and 150 lashes to the soles of the feet or 25 lashes to the back and enslavement for the remainder of their natural life. Two offenses will result in death by beheading.

*The Secretary of Law and Order is authorized to have an individual's home or property searched without a warrant if said individual is deemed "extremist," "radical," or "dangerously lawless."

*The ownership or display of flags of communist or leftist nationstates, organizations, or political parties is illegal. Violators are subject to twenty-five lashes in public and ten years imprisonment. Two offenses will result in enslavement.

Does this extend to embassies?

"We are curious as to the definition of 'leftist' within the context of this law. Do you mean economically leftist, or socially leftist? I presume the former as the criminals will be classified as Communist, and we see no problem with this, but we greatly hope that right-wing social thought does not infect your society."

Good Generalissimo, your new law has come to my attention and I wish to inquire as to whether perhaps it is a tad mild. For example there is no mention of routine execution.

We normally tie up and burn people who are perversely left wing in their manner. This is the only way to deal with these communist heretics, the Devil's spawn.

Research is beginning to show that weakness in the face of is evil is genetic, thus I suggest you also execute every member of leftists family to be on safe side.

We should take no risks with those who would destroy the Father of mankind.

PS. The above mentioned research is by Professor Walter, who I am aware you know.

*Anyone committed to a doctrine aimed at bringing about any political, industrial, social, or economic change within the Pest Control Company of Roach-Busters by the promotion of disturbance or disorder, by unlawful acts or ommissions, is to be legally classified as a communist, and subject to ten years' imprisonment in solitary confinement. This law also authorizes the Secretary of Law and Order to execute any violator of this act that he deems to be "incapable of orderly, law-abiding behavior," or who "shows a strong affinity for radical left-wing ideals," or who "relishes committing acts of violence in order to advance such ideals."

*Anyone found guilty in a court of law of reading or distributing Marxist, socialist, or leftist literature is subject to a fine of $25,000 and/or five years' imprisonment at hard labor.

*Anyone who raises a clenched fist- be it in public or private- is subject to a fine of $500 and up to six months' imprisonment.

*Anyone who "expresses contempt or shows disrespect," for anticommunism or anticommunists is subject to six months' imprisonment.

*The Secretary of Law and Order is authorized to have an individual's home or property searched without a warrant if said individual is deemed "extremist," "radical," or "dangerously lawless."

*The ownership or display of flags of communist or leftist nationstates, organizations, or political parties is illegal. Violators are subject to twenty-five lashes in public and/or one year imprisonment.

It is not quite repressive enough, allow me to suggest changes (done in bold)

*Anyone committed to a doctrine aimed at bringing about any political, industrial, social, or economic change within the Pest Control Company of Roach-Busters by the promotion of disturbance or disorder, by unlawful acts or ommissions, is to be legally classified as a communist, publically whipped on the soles of the feet 100 times and thrown into a lightproof cell for 25 years or enslaved for the remainder of their life.

*The Secretary of Law and Order is authorized to have an individual's home or property searched without a warrant if said individual is deemed "extremist," "radical," or "dangerously lawless." No change needed

*The ownership or display of flags of communist or leftist nationstates, organizations, or political parties is illegal. Violators are subject to twenty-five lashes in public and ten years imprisonment. Two offenses will result in enslavement.

In addition, please allow me to offer you the services of one of our construction corps in building a prison.

Of course, but I would like to suggest a few changes to prisons. Most inmates should be kept in groups of 20 to a 15x10 cell and given food and water 4 times a week. The cells should be completley devoid of light as well. Worse offenders should be kept in vertical cells the size of a coffin and given food and water 3 times a week. They should be let out only once every two days at most to eat, use the restroom, and be tortured.
