Zentata, Maxilains
Even if the law is a joke? I mean yeah, the perception of whether marijuana should be legal is always up to discussion, but I believe that it should be legalized after the age of 21. Lots of studies show that it is not as dangerous as alcohol or cigarettes to individuals health after the brain is fully developed, which is after 21 years. In my eyes, this makes the law 'stupid' for a lack of a better word. Laws are not meant to be broken, but some are outdated, based on flimsy research or prejudice. This means that sometimes we have to look at the bigger picture and forgive and forget.
Also, sometimes we have to compromise. Maybe this isn't the ideal proposal, but how long do we have to wait for it to get better? If ever?
My thoughts, cheers :)
Ayeinc, Zentata, Quark A, Maxilains
So, I can easily see where you're coming from. You're implying that if a law existed that said that no one can eat dried dates, even though dried dates are alright. So, when dried dates get legalized, all the people that ate them before should get out of prison, because all they did was eat dates.
(As a side note, this cannot be extrapolated to discriminatory laws that would discriminate agaisnt religions. Not being able to eat "dates" is not going to discriminate against a certain type of people. (unless you need to eat "dates" for your religion, but I find that unlikely) Not being able to eat dates is not going to hurt you, unlike laws that promote racism or religious discrimination.)
But. If you are a law abiding citizen, why didn't you fight to get "dates" legalized? Why didn't you follow the law? You knew that what you were doing was illegal, so why did you knowingly commit what was a crime at that time? If people cannot follow laws because they know that they might be repealed in the future and they can get a bargain, then democracy starts to crumble down.
Nationific, Narvara
This is just a question should I make zoos legal or not
Zentata
It kind of messed me up when I illegalized them, so I'd keep em legal.
That's my exact point. To answer your counter-argument. The law - as stated before - could have been based on flimsy research amongst a lot of other things. In the case of marijuana, it comes from the lack of extensive research. Fighting to get it legalized would therefore at the time seem stupid and even if you believed that it was good, you still would have been in a democracy where the entire population or elected politicians decide the outcome. A general bad look on marijuana would sway most politicians if they had no research to back anything else up and a population is often swayed by media.
I do agree that people shouldn't break the law because they might think it could be repealed later on. I personally believe though, that most reasonable people would not jeopardize their freedom on the account that laws might change in the future. That is one hell of a risky bet if you ask me. Furthermore, pardoning people does not seem like regular practice and marijuana incarceration would not result in much more than a few years at best.
But you are making a super valid point. If it wasn't marijuana I might have voted 'Against' based on that argument. Definitely will next time. You've earned my respect Zentata :)
Ayeinc, Zentata
What are the best ways to grow my population
Zentata
Wait. It grows over time at a steady rate.
Another Note for the WA Proposal
I'm going to quote from Morover here, because this is something I hadn't noticed at first " ...the phrasing of the clause makes it so that people who were picked up for charges relating to marijuana possession, but also had a more significant crime (such as unlawful homicide) would need to be pardoned as well, due to the terminology saying "a full pardon shall be issued" (emphasis mine) to people who have been charged with these marijuana-related charges."
Just something I thought was interesting. Also, some of the phrasing in the proposal is a little ambiguous, but that isn't really a large reason for why I'm voting against. Not to mention that you can have legal drugs and/or cannabis in your nation with or without this resolution.
And just to respond to Narvara. I can completely understand legalization at 21 and up (for cannabis). It's your choice, your problem. Of course, this resolution doesn't say anything about legal age, so I have to assume that babies could smoke weed.
Nationific, Ayeinc, The Lustrous Ones, Narvara
Which one should I prioritize the environment or my economy
Zentata
You can prioritize both
Although I disagree with your conclusion that democracy will start to "crumble down" (sounds like a slippery slope argument here), there's not much I have to refute most of your questions... well except for one.
There seems to be a mismatch with the premise that people will break laws and the conclusion that they're expecting to be pardoned later on when the laws get repealed.
If something is still illegal during the time a person commits the illegal act and they get charged or arrested, it's unrealistic to expect them to be motivated solely by legalization for the following reasons.
1. It wouldn't be obvious or guaranteed to them WHEN it will be legal (or if it will ever be in their lifetimes), and I'm sure those who are desperate enough to smoke during illegal times aren't going to keep a long-term view. If the dates are close, most people would just wait (and if they don't, just hold them off until the day). If it's far away, it goes to point 2...
2. Even if you're absolutely sure it gets legalized later on, and say you get criminally charged with possession or usage or whatever, and it gets repealed after legalization, well you still lost a not-insignificant chunk of your time/life having to deal with legal consequences before getting released. As far as I see it, that's a net negative for you. If you waited, you wouldn't had to deal with legal consequences for 6 months-a year or however long before it was legal. How do you overall benefit from that decision? Getting a criminal record for a few months? Getting a temporary residency at your local prison? That's not going to motivate people to break en masse laws on the way out for its own sake.
It is kind of a bargain, yes. but the bargain goes from "lose 100 units of your life to this illegal action" to "lose ~10-40 units of your life to this illegal action". In exchange, you got to smoke some weed. Was it worth it? Not many would answer yes.
Personally I don't think I can change anyone's minds on anything, but I highly doubt anyone who ignores these points to "expect" some law to get repealed to actually have an effect on democracy breaking down at all.
Edit: by all means I'm not against people advocating against pardoning people for past offenses, (even though I support that clause), but I just don't think this is the right argument to make for it
Alaniztan, Ayeinc, Zentata
Perhaps I exaggerated a little with that, and you're points do make sense. It must be said that people do use cannabis even though it's illegal and knowing that they will go to jail if caught, although they don't expect to be caught. Nevertheless, better to make it legal then smoke it when not, and make it legal properly. (aka not the current proposal)

Zentata, Renascia
Hy! How is everyone doing? I have contacted multiple flag designers in the past weeks, but none of them responded to me. Does anyone in this region design flags by any chance? I would like to have a custom flag for my nation.
Zentata
Just google what your looking for. There is billions of random cool flags all over the internet. There is also plenty of online sites that make it easy to design a flag.
Also would just like to give my opinion on the marijuana laws being voted on in the WA. I voted against because I think it is ridiculous for the WA to even attempt to infringe on the freedom of nations to decide for themselves wether or not certain drugs are illegal or legal. Member nations should be allowed to decide drug laws for themselves without intervention from the WA.
Zentata, Renascia
That is true. I'm going to go ahead and change my stance, this proposal is not fleshed out enough. Thank you.

I recommend voting against the marijuana act what I think it is doing is forcing Nations to do something that they could easily pick themselves and the people that are affected by this the people jailed for marijuana offensive know that they were breaking the law the all at the time and that should be punished correctly This is why I think you should vote against
The United Nations Of Kvenland, Zentata
Also even though I have marijuana legal in My nation does it mean observation should have it legalized I An pay people who commit crimes
Zentata
Greater Valaveria urges other nations to vote for the legalisation of marijuana, as a nation committed to allowing its citizens vast freedoms and civil liberties. Whereas I have gathered many nations take issue with the resolution mandating "a full pardon [to] be issued to individuals incriminated or incarcerated for marijuana and marijuana related paraphernalia," I believe that these people have served their time and their marijuana-related offences should be expunged.
The people who this would mainly impact are those who committed non-violent crimes and generally those from lower-socioeconomic backgrounds who would subsequently be disadvantaged with criminal records, thus inhibiting their ability to be effectively reintegrated back into society, such as in the workforce. Yes, these people did commit a crime at the time, but if this resolution passes, then it would then be found that nations would essentially no longer deem the actions they undertook as crimes - if I did a non-violent crime x then later x was legalised, should I continue to face repercussions for doing x? I would argue no.
Therefore the nation of Valaveria has voted for this resolution and would urge other nations to vote the same.
Alaniztan, Ayeinc, Veaetmar, Zentata
By voting for this you will set a precedent that the WA can decide laws for member nations. Do not give the WA so much power, stop this entire idea of the WA deciding such personal laws before things get worse. I myself plan on allowing marijuana in my nation once I am given the option but I do not believe other nations should be forced by the WA to do so.
The Lustrous Ones, Antaria Of Craftland
Actually seeing more of these posts, you guys are right. I already made it legal, it doesn't really change things for me anyway but I certainly don't want to be outnumbered when an unfavourable resolution wants to screw up my country. Changing vote......
Edit: on another note, do you guys sometimes see issues where all the choices suck? Are there some issues that screw up your country no matter how you choose, and what happens when you ignore them?

Firstly, glad to see that you changed your vote.
Secondly, yeah there is a lot of times where there is no good option. A lot of the time all options are to extreme or all the options are just different wordings on the same terrible solution. If there is no good option then just click ignore. Ignore doesnt harm you in any way it just deletes the issue and keeps your nation exactly how it already was.

I go away for 12 and a half hours, and the RMB's turned into a political battlefield!! Makes me feel so under-informed and under-educated, seeing the quality of arguments that have come up. May I propose something? Our region has quite enough influence. Why don't we discuss a proposal, a better one for the marijuana one and then put it up for the whole wide world to view? I'm sure we could get it pushed through. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Interesting idea, what changes do you propose?
Nationific
I dont see a need to propose anything new relating to marijuana. Nations should decide laws on marijuana for themselves and should not have the WA interfering with them. The WA should not decide such specific laws for independent nations.
Nationific, Yaldian Territories, The Lustrous Ones, Maxilains, Antaria Of Craftland
[spoiler=Greater Valaveria]
First of all, legalise marijuana
An unambiguous statement which asks for review of all marijuana related cases. A full pardon is filled with loopholes, as pointed out earlier and letting people stay in prison after the law has been passed is downright unlawful. I'd propose reviewing all judgement related to marijuana related crimes and pardoning those who did not commit any crime while under it's influence. But I'd prefer drug dealers to remain locked up, because I guess it's illegal to sell illegal things. That is criminal intent. I also should not demand full reparation for people incarcerated for marijuana related 'crimes' because an individual surely knows the law and hence, has broken the law in doing so. While they shall be put out of prison, they shouldn't be 'compensated'. And... The rest of the current resolution is all right. [/spoiler]
[spoiler=The United Nations Of Kvenland]
While I agree it doesn't have any specific reason to interfere with independent countries, I'd point out that the current resolution DID get through. Another thing, the resolution aims to improve civil rights worldwide. That surely is a necessary thing, so as to even undermine the autonomy of some States. The WA exists to pass laws which are not popular. But these laws have long term benefits. I know that's a very flimsy argument, but I haven't done much research. This is just a draft of a draft proposal. [/spoiler]
Maxilains, Greater Valaveria
Actually I can't believe I missed this. What was Thalassia's stance on the last resolution on forced sterilization? Are there some laws that can only be introduced and implemented through the WA? And what are many supporters' reasoning for supporting that resolution and rejecting this one?
Maxilains
Sounds like a good idea. Would love to flesh out this proposal a little more and make it airtight.
Nationific, Maxilains
1. Officially, Zentata voted For. And we all agree.
2. Nah. There are a ton of issues and almost every law can be passed by answering them. These are all known NS policies:
https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=920115
3. One of the supporters said that Sterilisation is barbaric, hence, for that resolution . Another reason was that nobody wants to be sterilized by force. There are a plenty of reasons against the current resolution. It's all in the RMB. If I'm not wrong, there are 38 messages debating this resolution in the board. I can't copy all of 'em here, lol. I'd suggest you look at the GA and SC forum threads. You'd find whatever you need there. All resolutions, and debates on them are recorded there.

How are other WA members feeling about the "On Marijuana" measure currently in front of the body? While I'm not certain the populace of Libertin would be against legalization, it seems the bill is written to force legalization among nations whose populace believe differently.

Personally, I feel that we could use the measure to check the effects of marijuana on the body, which could determine its effectivness.

I'm voting against, for many reasons stated above. It is, quite simply, a badly written bill.

I'm voting against this resolution because I believe that drew has done nothing to merit a condemnation, or a commendation. He accidentally made NS laggy, and accidentally threw off an update/raid.

Drew does not deserve this condemnation. Once he does something that is worthy of a condemnation, he can be condemned. As of this proposal, he has not.

Dear Honorable Mr. Strondheim,
We in Avalonia are quite excited for your arrival and the no-doubt productive meeting we will have. My office has made preparations for your delegation to be accommodated at the Hôtel d'Buërge, in central Amalijesholm District, Köbarnhavn, in walking distance to both the Royal Palace and the Government Isles.

Additionally, my office has received a gift from one of the state industrial companies, Vålvö, so you will have at your disposal one Vålvö Xcs40 for when you are in Köbarnhavn.
Awaiting your arrival, and with hopes for safe travel,

[spoiler=RP 2]Vålvö Factory, Glasgå
Vera Yang walked through automatic glass doors into a fresh smelling assembly line room. With some workers in blue at machinery, she watched as the metal bodies of the ecautos floated down the assembly line, automated arms putting new parts in place. Smiling at the efficiency of the system, she walked further through the factory, until she reached the end of the assembly line. The new cars stood in a line, a quiet purr of a conveyor belt moving them down the room as even more rolled on. Taking an elevator up, Ms. Yang walked through a brightly lit hallway into a fitting inspection room. Two workers were inspecting the finishings on one of the recently finished cars. As Ms. Wang watched, they finished their inspection, and left the room to go onto another inspection. The door closed, and Ms. Wang walked in a circle around the car, admiring its Öresund Blue. The XC90 was the perfect family SUV and one of the safest ecautos out there. Stylish too, it had become a symbol of the 21st Century modern family mobility in Avalonia. The standards sold for 36.560,00 Æ, but the car Vera Yang looked at was the XC90 Excellence, with a upgraded interior making it even more luxurious. A different engine also made it an even more powerful car, and the much of the finishing was handmade. An artificially intelligent interface and concierge, with self-driving and assistive driving features, the 59.660,00Æ XC90E was a masterpiece of Avalonian Ecauto Design and Engineering, something Vera Yang was proud of.
As the President of Vålvö for a decade now, she had helped Vålvö become synonymous with safe, stylish, and premium vehicles. Regarded as a luxury-quality car maker that could cater to all people, Vålvö was a trusted brand in a nation where the people have extremely high expectations for ecauto makers regarding safety, environmental footprint, and design. Now, it was time to take Vålvö international, in the opinion of President Yang. There needed to be a high-quality electric vehicle company on global markets with the capacity to reach more and more consumers, and Yang's Vålvö was that company.
Returning to her office in the Glasgå Vålvö Production Plant, the flagship factory outside of the Suèditje Region, President Yang sent an official request to a potential partner with which Vålvö could create a great economic relationship.
To: The Economic Ministry of Zentata, and Business Communities
From: Vera Yang, President of the Vålvö Groupe
Hello,
My name is Vera Yang, and I am the President of the Vålvö Groupe, an international ecauto producer headquartered in Göteborgstad, Avalonia. When Avalonia outlawed cars using internal combustion engines, due to the environmental recklessness they pose, Vålvö lead the way to sustainable mohility. I believe Vålvö and its high-qaulity electric vehicles it produces are perfect for Zentata. Behind the Avalonian high-design, state of the art technology, cutting edge safety measures, and immaculate finishes of Vålvö cars are happy, healthy, and well-treated unionized workers, and a large environmental protection infrastructure within the company. I invite representatives from your union to come, see our ecautos, our factories, and discuss the future of Zentata-Vålvö relations.
Sincerely,
Vera Yang
