IDS1: Dignity of the Flag Act (DEBATING)

[Dereich]

I was actually thinking about designing a new flag that meets the standards of our flag regulations law, but I can't understand those standards at all.  I am offering an amendment:

You don't like golden fringe on our flags?

I don't really have a preference for which design is used; practically anything is better than the current one.

[Dereich]

Well, I didn't think it was a priority before, but since you mention it maybe the amendment should be something like this:

Griffin had a suggestion which was this:



and Enderman described one which was this:

Of course not. At this point, we're legislating for the IDS as it is now and shouldn't think any other way.

[Dereich]

I kind of like it, it shows our Southern uniqueness. We ain't gonna use those "regular" northern flag poles! Not to say I'm invested in it one way or the other.

[Dereich]

Do we currently have a coat of arms?

[Dereich]

Its hard for me to comment on these. My laptop's screen shows every color as either pink or green. I'll comment more tomorrow when I get on a screen that shows regular color.

But again, this is meant to be a coat of arms separate from the flag, correct? Is discussion of a coat of arms appropriate for this bill?

[Dereich]

I'm interested to hear what Hash and Small L have to say. Their opinions matter just as much but we haven't heard from either for a while.

[Dereich]

Friendly. I don't think its ideal, but its far better than the current flag.

Just to throw out a suggestion: do you think it might be a good idea to put whatever comes out to a vote? Its not usual procedure, but its the kind of thing people might care about and could coincide with the upcoming regional election.

[Dereich]

Friendly, unless anyone has objections.

[Dereich]

Personally, I'm not a fan of the cloture votes at all. There is almost always a consensus to end debate anyway by the time a cloture vote is called.

[Dereich]

Yes, yes

[Dereich]

As Emperor of the Imperial Dominion of the South I hereby sign this bill into law.

If nobody objects I'll include the referendum in the regional election this Friday.
