Repeal "Citizen Rule Required"

A proposal to repeal a previously passed resolution


Category: Repeal


Resolution: #8


Proposed by: Dankism

Description: UN Resolution #8: Citizen Rule Required (Category: The Furtherment of Democracy; Strength: Strong) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: The United Nations,

COMMENDING the democratic intentions of Resolution #8, “Citizen Rule Required,”

NOTING that not all U.N. nations wish to be democratic,

FURTHER NOTING that Resolution #8, “Citizen Rule Required,” claims that citizen rule promotes “international peace,” which is not always true,

UNDERSTANDING that Resolution #8 fails to define which position the declaration for "citizen rule" applies to, making the resolution vague and ineffectual,

CONSIDERING that Resolution #8 does not adequately define “rouge nations,” nor how citizen rule deters said “rouge nations,”

ALSO CONSIDERING that Resolution #8 condemns certain governments, such as anarchies and dictatorships,

UPHOLDING that it is outside the mandate of this body to condemn specific political systems,

BELIEVING that member nations should decide on their own form of government at local, regional, and national levels,

REPEALS Resolution #8 “Citizen Rule Required.”

UNITED NATIONS RESOLUTION #8
Citizen Rule Required

A resolution to increase democratic freedoms.


Category: The Furtherment of Democracy


Strength: Strong


Proposed by: Aschen

Description: This is a resolution to require all nations to grant self-rule to all citizen on some level. Local, Regional, or National is no matter, just so long that all citizens have some say and control over the way they are governed. These measures would promote international peace and serve as a deterent to the formation of so called "rouge nations" that to this day threaten all nations.

Remove that awful resolution, just in case we ever re-join the UN.

Besides, what is a rouge stage? I'm perfectly happy being a rogue.

Why, I do believe a rouge nation is wear that wears copious amounts of make-up. Whatever it is, we happily SUPPORT this repeal.

This has to be one of the worst resolutions (Resolution #8) in terms of both spelling and defining what a 'Rouge nation' laugh.gif is. REPEAL
