An excerpt from the Zackaroth Times: As in every summer in Zackaroth, major laws are reevaulated and either changed, gotten rid of or just leaving it alone. Many laws have been changed since Zackaroth firs began this process but over the course of the years one law has not changed at all. The one barring the small Communist Party from running for office. While we as a nation have move forward from out terrible experiance with communism we as a people have not. We still tell our children horrors, the evils and the crimes commited by the long dead communist goverment. And that we still hold on the fear of the Reds.
While yes, Zackaroth has been attacked by Communist terrorists three times we must realized we have experianced both sides of the Left and right. first we where hit with the hardcore left communists. Then we where hit by the hardcore Facists. Though far right parties are still allowed to run for office. I believe this is a great injustice. Yes we have been wronged once in the past by communists before. And yes those where dark times. But we are a land of free people and we must allow these other communist to run for office.
Why? Because if we do not. We will be doing the same thing Von Strangaild and Eddmon did to us. Restrict the basic rights of human beings. I am not advocating or supporting the communist party in anyway. I am supporting the people's freedom and allowing certain parties to run for office. What are we afraid of? Another Red Sickled reign? The communists in the party are clearly not fanatics like those that have attacked us. All I am saying is for the High Leader if to grant rights to one more group of people. And while there ideas may not work. And while there thoughts and economic system may fail they are still humans and they still have the right to form try and run for office.
