  • Campaign for Camel Rights and Wellbeing

    Worried at the proposals for the upcoming wonder building, and the use of camels therein, I would like to take my first political stance, and point out that camels have feelings too.

    For the safety of the camels, happiness of the people, and well-being of the empire, I request the president:
    • a) Ensure all camels are stabled in a city until such a time as they are need to travel a route.
    • b) Ensure camels should not be forced to endure arduous sea journeys for more that 2 turns, or their health will suffer
    • c) Ensure no camels come to any harm, and any "disbanding" of camel herds and social groups be done as painlessly as possible, with large groups in one city, rather than spreading the sociable camels across the empire and separting them.
    • d) Ensure that where possible, wonders built on camel labour be in some way beneficiary to the camel species as a whole, preferably named after one or more of the camels who placed the most major role in its construction.

      Hmmm

      We will do our utmost to assure that no camels are killed, maimed, annoyed, upset, or even saddened in the caravasarry process.

      Does that help?

      If I am elected City Planner,

      - I promise that all camels will be treated with respect, physical kindness, and appreciation for their substantial benefits toward the advancement of oiur Civ.

      - Camels that have done their duty in support of the Civ will be given fields of their favorite foods, companionship of other retired camels, and Purina camel-treats every weekend.

      - There will be a *special place* for retired camels where they may romp and engage in leisure pursuits to their hearts' content.

      - We will welcome foreign camels to that joyful reservation for the perpetuation of genetic diversity asmong all camels.

      - We will respect camels for their personal integrity and not just the value of the commodities they carry so well and honorably.

                Gramphos, please see cavebear's post.
                His six points will suffice as an acceptable starting-point for good camel-human relationships across the spans of time.

                Does that help?
                Yes. Yes it does.

                Thankyou for taking this matter seriously.

                          I must thank the president for the lovely camel steaks he provided the people.
