Quote:
The fierce debate on angsty teenager hunting in Apathasis has been brought to your attention after vociferous supporters of both sides of the argument stormed your parliament.
The Debate

1. "Angsty teenager hunting is a cruel and horrible 'sport' for the wealthy," says Jack Gutenberg of the 'Protect Anything Cute and Furry Society'. "How can you possibly justify it? Oh, they witter on about 'tradition' and 'pest control' and other such nonsense, but really we all know it's because these sadists love to torture poor, innocent animals! Hunting must be banned!"
[Accept]

2. "Banning angsty teenager hunting would be the end for centuries of tradition!" wails esteemed aristocrat Jennifer Love from atop his steed. "The thrill of the chase, the baying of the hounds, the angsty teenager scooting through the undergrowth - it would be a travesty! We provide much needed stimulus to the local tourism, and you can't deny that angsty teenagers are pests - killing farmers' livestock for example! I propose that angsty teenager hunting be encouraged, for the cultural - and economic - benefit of the nation!"
[Accept]

3. "Well, you know what I think?" asks Hope Hanover, while helping to assemble a small trebuchet. "I reckon that the real issue about this sport is the cruelty aspect, and no-one can deny that sending a pack of dogs to tear apart a poor, innocent angsty teenager is cruel. I reckon we should just ban hunting with hounds and only allow kinder and more instantly lethal methods like guns, tranquillisers, and cruise missiles."
[Accept]

4. "I'm firmly against the slaughter of dumb animals," says Stephanie Steele, while feeding an infant angsty teenager with a milk bottle. "It would be best if the animals didn't die, and hunters could still do what they love to do - how about instead of shooting them or sending vicious canines after them, the hunter runs up to his quarry and gives it a symbolic 'tap' with his hand? Now isn't that much nicer for everyone?"


...guess what the national animal for that country is? ninja

The Issue
A coalition of tribalists, health experts, and civil rights proponents have recently suggested legalizing cannibalism for consumers of willing would-be meals.

The Debate
"I see absolutely no problem with people digging into each other at dinnertime, so long as everyone is willing," Jennifer Frederickson, the editor of the monthly magazine 'To Serve Man', quips, "Not only does it solve hunger problems and create jobs, but it also adds variety to Chievious's sometimes dull palette."
[Accept]


Civil rights leader Klaus du Pont came out publicly for moderate pro-cannibalism legislation, commenting, "While it may strike some as a crude, even evil practice, our ancestors have practiced cannibalism for years. If we create a government organization to strictly regulate and grade all human meat prior to its arrival on the market, we can ensure that respect for diversity is maintained while health concerns are also allayed. And instead of killing average people, why not make being turned into snack foods a post-mortem option? Like donating your body to science!"
[Accept]


"You're all absolutely out of your minds!" exclaims Elizabeth Hendrikson, head of Chievious's largest health-food manufacturer. "It's immoral, it's unhealthy, and it's disgusting. Not only are these so-called 'dietary rights' activists leading us down a dark path of sin, but right into a marketplace with yet another product that's almost as bad as beef!"

CANNIBALISM! twisted

The Issue
An organized crowd of leather-clad individuals, some of whom are on leashes, are protesting against discrimination for those who share their interests.

The Debate
"We happen to express our love differently, with different hobbies and activities," explains BDSM enthusiast Calvin Licorish, while wearing needle-sharp spiked heels and holding a whip. "Shops exist to cater to the needs of 'normal' people, but do you have ANY idea how hard it is to get a quality whip? A little support for our hobbies would be appreciated!"
[Accept]


"Yeah," exclaims May Mombota, another enthusiast, wearing nothing but a collar, "and like other couples, we want the right to display our affection in public. If Master wants to take me walkies in public, he should be able to."
[Accept]


Lars Winters dissents wholeheartedly. "This is not about showing affection--this is about moral decency. Think of the children, for God's sake! Think of the children! We must criminalize and eliminate this perversion to keep them safe. Which of course means a special task force to track down and capture these cretins!"
[Accept]

People regularly disappear off the streets and all evidence of them is destroyed, Max Barry is this year's Miss Mufffinworld, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and people are moving into treehouses in record numbers. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is a serious problem. Mufffinworld's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the air.

Meat is a luxury afforded only to the wealthy, young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts. Crime is moderate. Amigo Land's national animal is the buzzkid and its currency is the amigo-o.

Children are raised bilingual from an early age, skateparks can be found in every city, police officers are seen patrolling the streets armed with satellite-guided truncheons, and dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws. Crime is totally unknown. Commadawhatsit's national animal is the jackelope, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the whatsit.

The mining industry has taken a hit from tighter environmental regulations, pharmacies close down as medicinal drugs are sold freely by the government, soylent products are an expensive commodity due to a lack of volunteers, and political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations. Crime is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chievious's national animal is the fruit bat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the meep.

Evelyth is ranked 1st in the region and 8,576th in the world for Largest Public Transport Department.

Heckyes. cool

I could have gone totally opposite today, and made an all skateboard thing. xd That must be a new one; everyone's getting it.

Edit:
UN Category: Corrupt Dictatorship
Civil Rights: Some
Economy: Fair
Political Freedoms: Outlawed

The Queendom of Evelyth is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, cynical population of 561 million are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Public Transport, Education, and the Environment. The average income tax rate is 69%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Midnight raids drag couples from their homes in the name of decency, guns are banned, drug distribution is tightly controlled by the government, and the average commuter spends four hours a day driving to and from work. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Evelyth's national animal is the raven, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the gold.
