IDS 1: Liberalization Act of 2013 (Passed)

[Donerail]

Hey, y'all, so this would define how our law works in regards to all that crap that makes Jesus

[Donerail]

I like this, mostly, but I'm a bit concerned about the middle part of section 9 - it seems as if this would benefit people who don't wear helmets.

It means that, if you're suing a guy who hit you (in an auto accident), you may have the money you get from it reduced if you don't wear a helmet (the thinking being that your injuries wouldn't be as severe if you had worn a helmet). It's designed to incentivize helmet-wearing.

[Donerail]

Section 8 and 9 are just out of this world. Seatbelts and helmets have saved thousands of lives, and we'd like to ban them ? What is wrong with you Sjoyce ? Maybe we should give guns to every user of a car or motorcycle to protect them instead of those boring seatbelts and uncool helmets.

Seriously.

No portion of the legislation bans helmets or seatbelts. Read the legislation.

Hash's amendment excluding the striking of 8 and 9 and the insertation of 12 is friendly.

[Donerail]

All amendments (excluding Dereich's amendment to Clauses 4 and 8 and Hash's amendments to clauses 8 and 9) are friendly.

We made the age of consent 12?

So what of my striking of clause 3? Is that friendly as well or does accepting Hash's revision count as rejecting it?

And Velasco, I wasn't really thinking too hard about it; I just noticed that the changes to 8 didn't really effect 9 and glossed over it.

I accept Hash's revision to Clause 3.

Do you accept my striking of clause 6? Its always nice to say we don't support child pornography, but its pretty redundant when we already have a law about it.

Yes.

On the Liberalization Act of 2013: by the powers vested in me as Emperor of this region, I thus sign it into law.

Be it resolved, X Emperor SJoyce
