Nay.

We should be teaching children not to assume that technology can solve all their problems.

I might point out that the Soviet Union was a multinational empire and the nation-states that peeled off from it were just that. Nation-states.

Massachusetts is a region, not a nation-state. The nation-state is the Republic of Atlasia, which has done nothing wrong. Name one way in which Massachusetts or Vermont or any other state in the Northeast is being wronged or oppressed by the Republic of Atlasia (doing things that happen to be politically unpopular in the region does not count, since that's part and parcel of a nation-state being diverse).

Censure is a parliamentary procedure, not a political one. In these cases, it instills the need for respect of oneself and others in public debate.

If we aren't generally going to be in the business of 'censoring' one another's vituperative and infantile attacks during debates, please let me know for the next time a bill that the gentleman from Massachusetts has authored comes to us for consideration.

I'm withdrawing the motion of censure but reiterate for the record my disapproval of the gentleman from Massachusetts's debating style and my belief that we in the Northeast Assembly should have stricter guidelines for respecting ourselves and one another in the course of our public business.

Bills like this are the cancer that is killing representative democracy.

I would like to, not introduce a formal amendment as such, but express my general belief that the resolution should in a better world be changed to read as follows:

Quote

It has as much chance of passing and is exactly as serious as the original text.

He should. It's for rhetorical purposes only.

I fully support this bill, my only concern being that it might still be a good idea for the governor to make interim appointments (if we can get those to be apolitical that would be good, but probably far easier said than done for obvious reasons) until special elections can be held.

I'm not sure it's a great idea to put condoms in restrooms. Those places tend to be filthy in schools.

Out of curiosity, is this intended to permit a K-5 or K-8 school to provide condoms as well as 6-8 and 9-12 ones?

Aye.

While I would have liked a clarified and amended section 1, I am confident that schools in the region will be at least somewhat judicious in their implementation, if any, of this new allowance.

Out of curiosity, is there any kind of government or political action whatsoever of which the gentleman from Massachusetts would actually approve?

I'd like to introduce an amendment to remove the apostrophe from section 1.

I fully support this bill.
