Land Mine Resolution

[DarkCloud]

Apolyton should, as a unit, vote against this restrictive proposal.

The Proposal

All nations are advised that landmines are cruel and unnecessary devices to civilian populations of nations around the world. These weapons indiscriminately maim and kill civilian targets. When conflicts end, landmines pose a serious threat to farming and render large portions of land unuseable. The expense and difficulty of removing landmines after hostilities cease means that farmland and other areas might never be useful to populations for any enterprise. For this reason the immediate banning of the use of landmines in conflicts carried out by UN counties is called for.

Copied from my Nationstates board post:

Vote AGAINST. All we need to do is map where we place our landmines. Then OUR citizens will not need to worry. Who cares about our enemies, they are our ENEMIES, whether or not we are at peace with them... They deserve to die- let them demine themsleves at their own cost- it'll ruin their country economically without requiring the vast expenses of a conventional war on our part.

[Mr. President]

It's a damn dirty bleeding-heart left-wing proposal.

[Verto]

Not in your region, but I did vote against it. Not that it seems to matter, since its winning 3 to 1 right now.

[DarkCloud]

Right-Wingers are too intelligent to join something as fancy as a UN and be forced into follwoing its demands.

Only left-wingers dream of costly regulations

[Verto]

I have a thing for lost causes. A real shame though; my economy would be a couple notches higher had it not been for these UN resolutions.

[DarkCloud]

You mean the UN resolutions are why the taxes in all the nations are going up?

I may just have to leave the UN... *The ********!*
