Paaarty! Lol
SCROTUM?
Supreme Court Room Of The Unyielding Man. Lol

Scrotum oddly enough doesn't bother me, SCOTUS is a terrible acronym and reads like letter salad.

Sounds like an old spice commercial after rereading that lol

What about USSC?
Who else is ready for this supreme court ruling and the various MOs, COs, and DOs?
Austex
Sure
WA delegate: None.
Our time has finally come!
Austex
Do I hear the calls for revolution?
Miencraft, The New United States, Rateria, Humpheria In The Commonwealth, Lain Iwakura
Are you guys okay?
I sure hope so.
I ask because I noticed commies attacking your embassies and now you're locked and you don't have a delegate.
Just checking in.
Austex
Pretty sure we're fine, but I'll let someone with more knowledge confirm.
We're a-okay! President Humpheria is on a state-visit to CFN, and so we've locked down the region, as a security measure.
Good to hear!
Actually leaving the region is a weird thing to do though.
It is a display of good faith. I'm still here.
Looking forward to this SC ruling, it's going to be a good one.
Austex
I know I'm practically shaking with anticipation. At this point, I don't care where the ruling goes (though I still would like to be ruled in favor of the plaintiff), I just want to see our Justice system in action.
Just a procedural reminder to the Justices: you don't say you uphold or repeal the law. You just rule in favor of the plaintiff or the respondent.
Hey, anyone else listen to the Tom Woods Show?
Nice twenty-four hour period, there Justices. One that only has two hours left.
What's going on?
Watching the world burn.

Don't you nag us, or it'll be another 24, you darned whippersnapper.

Mr. President, why did you have your primary nation leave?
We are in the middle of a State Visit with the Commonwealth. I moved my nation over there during the visit and will return at its conclusion.
So you felt like moving your primary account would be best for the visit? I understand.
7 minutes left in 24 hrs.
Can they run the ball into the end zone, or will they risk a pass play?
The ruling is today, right?
It was due 20 minutes ago. I believe that I will dock their salaries.
The first case of the new judiciary came to us from Mr. President Humpheria involving a claim of violation of the rights of sovereign nation by the WAR Act. The trial of [I]Humpheria v. Libertatem[/I], though with some delay, was heard smoothly and now a majority opinion comes, authored by I, Chief Justice [nation=short]the Aradites[/nation] with no concurring or dissenting opinions from any of the Justices.
The Supreme Court has ruled in a favor of 3-0 for the Plaintiff, Humpheria. The court agreed that the nation who holds the Presidential position has the same rights invested in them as any other nation, no matter the position. By the Constitution, all nations have the same rights and The WAR Act violates the nation who holds the Presidential position's right to free speech, self-governance and determination, thus, it is un-constitutional. Finally, those who do not believe the President is representing the people may call for either an Impeachment or withdraw their endorsement to the President.

Oh, no, I'm going to be paid even less of nothing than I already am!

Oi what's happening with the lockdown? Is it because we're without delegate?
Any Concurring Opinions?
I'd say something but he pretty much summed up my opinion on the matter.
That's fine. It's just a Justice's only opportunity to make case law, I just wanted to make sure you all had your chance.
You all still have your speeches to post in Commonwealth Of Free Nations.
Of tellings me plox.
There is currently a State Visit to the Commonwealth so since that has made us vulnerable, we locked down the region.

A new victory for Attorney Yrellian. I should think about raising my fees.
Congratulations guys, this whole thing went pretty well.

Isn't Pev still prohibited from RMB posting?
We figured something out.
Working on it.
Where can I find the court's proceedings?
Talk to Justice TNUS for a transcript.
Until then, just transcribe the Majority Opinion.
Wow, no dissenting opinions? That must have been a pretty compelling argument the Humpheria counsel made, then. I thought my contribution to the defense would have been enough to at least inspire a small degree of doubt.
Yrellian Confederacy, Rateria, Austex
Why isn't Pevvania allowed to post?
Hypersensitive lefties were offended that Pev dare call them out for baiting on 9/11. He was reported and given a temporary RMB ban of one month, I believe.
Pevvania, Rateria, Condealism Envoy Unit One
Mr. Chief Justice, are you almost ready to address the Commonwealth?
Yes I'm preparing my address
RP of State Visit Ball on the CFN Forums if any of you want to pretend to be at a fancy ball.

The entirety of the trial's transcript has been made available for public perusal at the following address:

A ball? That seems highly uncharacteristic of a Libertarian region lol.
It's a state visit. We can party!
OFF OF MY HARD EARNED ZEIMARKS.
So...
does anyone have controversial opinions (like the last time I tried sparking this conversation not ones that we all agree on here)?
Don't forget guys: Zombies are coming soon. Put on your hazmat suits so we can cure Libertatem fairly quickly.

For all of you following Canadian politics, who do you think is going to win the election? At first I thought NDP was for sure going to win, with a majority at that, but now conservatives an liberals are gaining more ground due to Mulcair's mess up during the French debates. It would be nice to have your two cen-, I mean, nickel in.
No one. The Canadians lose in the end. Our liberties and our maple syrup.

ZOMBIES? WHY ZA ZA ZA ZOMBIES?
I guess because it's Halloween?
Yes. Exactly why.
I could swear it started as an April Fools event, and then it became Halloween...
Either way, once again we must prepare for massive server failures this Halloween, just like last year. And the year before that. And the year before that.
Was it on the year before that?
The fact that I can remember Z-Day like that makes me feel really old, and then I remember that Miencraft was founded in 2011 or something like that, which makes it one of, if not the oldest country in all of Libertatem.

Hi guys. I'm running for election on the board. Vote for the united environmentalist states of mhomen. Long live Mhomen and good morning
Kings Island
Which seat?
I intend to run, I just haven't figured out the details yet. I intend to run for whatever seat is available at that time.
Mr. Mhomen, what is your position on the ROADS Amendment, and would you pledge to support its passage, if elected?
Muh Roads, Lain Iwakura
I, too, find myself interested in your stance on this legislation, Mr. Mhomen.
The New United States, Muh Roads
I can never tell if you are joking about that. You know it's unconstitutional.

Hey guys. What does your Political Compass looks like?
Teuberland
A grid with a dot.
Miencraft, Teuberland, Lain Iwakura
In all seriousness, someone made a crowd chart once. But I can't find it.
Teuberland
8.5, -5. Usually ends up roughly around that whenever I take it.
I usually fall somewhere between +8 to +9 on the economic left/right scale, and slightly positive on the authoritarian scale.
Just took it again, and I ended up at +8.13 economic right and +0.1 authoritarian.
Last time I took the test, I was +2 authoritarian. Don't know why there's such a large difference, since my opinions on social issues don't frequently change (and certainly haven't changed in the last two months).
That's quite a contrast when compared to myself
http://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=360878
The New United States
+5.63 Economic Right
-4.72 Social Libertarian.
Odd, I always thought of myself as more right-wing.
Teuberland
Fun fact: I'm the one that took it off the WFE because of how out-of-date it was.
The link should still be in my obsolete IA office, which you can still find in my factbooks.
Also if it's not in the IA office, it's in my Presidential office.
Scratch that. It's so out-of-date it literally does not exist anymore.

Haven't done a politcal compass test in a while. Got 2.88 to right economically, and only -.21 for Libertarian. Much improvement on the Libertarian front, but went down economcially.
Teuberland
I have done it! I have created a forum!
What do you all think?

I'll try to join after class.
What happened to Libertatem.shivtr.com?
Granted.
It is still existent but it is admin-ed by someone who isn't in Libertatem and it is drastically outdated.
Sweet Talos you set up my stuff quickly.
