Please tell me you took the text labeled as "Final Text" and not what was in the OP.

Don't worry. 

I was born to worry.

Statement on the Recent Initiative Launched by the Attorney General

The Department of External Affairs is strongly opposed to the recent move by Attorney General Fuzzybigfoot to record the license plate numbers of all Muslims currently residing in Atlasia. The Department finds this action to be unnecessary, illogical, and detrimental to the relations of the Atlasian government with the Islamic community both here and abroad. In particular, the Department finds important allies such as Turkey, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia will be less likely to trust and work with Atlasia due to the Attorney General's actions, casting doubt as they do upon the loyalty and trustworthiness of Muslims. The Department of External Affairs would like to remind the Atlasian populace and the international community that they are not supportive of this action, and that the actions of the Attorney General do not necessarily correlate with our ability to co-operate with other nations. We hope that Atlasia can continue to work with Islamic nations such as Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, and Pakistan in order to constrain Iran, despite this incident.

Figured I should post this here too.

Someone is now a suspect!

Of? Being a Muslim? Larceny? Tax fraud?

Maybe all, now that you mention it!  Mwahahahaha

I assure you, I am not a crook and I did not have sexual relations with that woman. The DoEA is seriously concerned if being a Muslim is considered a crime... That may alienate some countries...

On an unrelated Justice-related note, is there any sort of functional Supreme Court?

As soon as it get's set up, we may just have fried Fuzzy to celebrate the start of our first oversight committee.

And you spelled gets as "get's"!  Only a foreigner would do such a thing!!!   Add 1 to the list, boys.   

Time to defund the Justice Department, boys!!!

Wow people have no sense of humour

[Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Wow, people actually think we are talking serious here?

Wow people have no sense of humour

There's a reason my amendment is in the AG thread and not the Budget one...

Executive order from the Office of the Attorney General, Fuzzybigfoot:


This administration charges the Imperial Region with breaking Second Clause of Section 7, Article 1 of Atlasia's third constitution by creating a regional curency (the "Dibble") under the Second Section of the Trojan Act. 


Due to said violations, Federal Agents will seize control of all exchange places listed in the Trojan Act (including the Imperial Capital of Memphis and all other state capitals in the Southern region) and cease the exchange and distribution of "Dibbles" to all Southern citizens.




Stand by for an impending lawsuit against the Imperial South.

[Emperor SJoyce]

The IDS's Chief Judicial Overlord is currently on a vacation; an attorney for the IDS shall need to be located.

The relevant section of the Constitution is as follows:

No Region may issue Coin or Currency or make any Coin or Currency other than that of the Republic of Atlasia a legal tender.

And the relevant section of the act:

Section 2
The Government of the IDS shall accept the "Dibble" (gold and silver coins in 1,2,5,10,25,50,100,& 500 Dibble denominations that are produced and distributed by a private company) as payment for and service or debts owed to the region.
a. The IDS shall not by any means force any private business or individuals to accept the Dibble in private barter.
b. If any citizen on the IDS would like to Exchange Dibbles for Dollars or vice versa, they may do at the Capitol Building in Memphis or in the capitols of the states within the IDS.
c. The IDS does not recognize the Dibble as a "currency", but as simply items to be used in barter.

[Fuzzy]

I am ordering my agents in the South to stand down until further notice.

[Fmr. Emperor PiT]

I am ordering my agents in the South to stand down until further notice.

     Thank you. Likewise, I will suspend my orders to arrest them until further notice.

[IDS Legislator Alfred F. Jones]

Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!

[Pacific Councillor Big Wiggly Style]

One for the blooper reel indeed

[Emperor SJoyce]

Mr. Attorney General, a question from a concerned citizen of the IDS:

If the Supreme Court does indeed find the IDS in violation of the Constitution, what is the impact on the average citizen of that region, particularly if they own a good amount of Dibbles? Can they not use their Dibbles anymore and that's the end of it? Do you require them be exchanged for Atlasian dollars? Melted down into its original gold state?

[Fuzzy]

Mr. Attorney General, a question from a concerned citizen of the IDS:

If the Supreme Court does indeed find the IDS in violation of the Constitution, what is the impact on the average citizen of that region, particularly if they own a good amount of Dibbles? Does their money suddenly become worthless? Do you require it to be exchanged for Atlasian dollars? Melted down into its original gold state?

We'd probably try to redistribute the dollars that were originally exchanged for the Dibbles, in order to ensure economic accountability in the South.  But we have a little while until the court comes to a decision, so we'll continue to ponder all our options.
