It is a well-established principle that an Honour, once granted, can always be rescinded, at least when the recipient is still alive. Given this, I call upon the Senate to strip jravnsbo of the Order of the Silver Star. This now disgraced individual is no longer an active Atlasian and has not been for well over a decade and a half, but he is known elsewhere by a different name: one that I will not utter and urge others not to either. It could be argued that unless this Republic removes the honour granted to this individual it is, in effect, condoning him and his heinous, awful actions. The maintenance of public morality demands action!

Can someone establish where he was given Order of Star of Atlasia? OSA was only created in 2012, and didn't exist in 2005. Someone posted a Senate resolution honoring him from 2005 but this would have been wiped with the reset in 2016.

I think we should reserve the removal of honors for things that happen within fanastyland.

Whether or not it was wiped by the reset, it was mostly a resolution to sentiments of the the Senate, their gratitude towards him etc.; as a result it isn't really legislation and one could argue it still stands today.

As a result, I urge Congress to pass a resolution expressly overturning any and all honors expressed to him by the old Senate. Will draft such a resolution for them shortly.

Seems a bit silly to make a big deal over someone who hasn't even been active in like 15 years or so.

I agree with Yankee that technically his honors were struck with the reset. Of course we can always pass a resolution condemning him or something.

Then again president MB pardoned jravnsbo so... Tongue

Being an Atlasian-American officeholder is a great distinction and privilege. As such, only the best of us should ever be serving IRL office... because most of us, let's face it, aren't qualified despite not having killed someone.

It is fitting and proper that jravnsbo be stripped of all titles and honors that may have been bestowed upon him.

Sounds like y'all are just bored and have nothing better to do tbh.

The vast majority of the game wasn't even around when he was, a very large portion weren't old enough to access the internet, and some I believe weren't even born. His current issues have absolutely nothing to do with past accomplishments in the game.

Like writing for a TV show, eventually you run slow on ideas.

The great thing about an efficient virtual government without constant recesses is that everything just goes to a up-or-down vote. The bad thing is that you accomplish so much that eventually you just need to work with whatever comes to mind.

And yet 122 people voted for more of the same lack of ideas, just because they are so scared of Labor losing an election.

Feds hold offices too and are free to submit things whenever they want. This is getting extremely tiring from you.

Maybe the people in your party can be free to stop treating us like trash. That isn't happening though because that is literally the only purpose of the Labor Party's existence.

There is too much salt in this thread, that is bad for your cardiovascular system.

If it continues I will be forced to take some actions as public health matter.

At risk of ruining the festive mood of recent posts, is there any reason why this wouldn't have been revoked during the legislative reset? I would argue resolutions ought to be counted as legislation.

Not that I don't agree with the consensus regarding the actions of the politician in question. Seems a bit redundant though.

I would like some focus drawn back to these matters. It has not been established who gave him OAS and when.

 It is also not been established that the resolution is still in effect, I am fairly certain the reset did in fact wipe all resolutions.

Yeah, it would have been repealed. That wouldn't necessarily stop Congress from passing a new resolution explicitly condemning jravnsbo, since the rescission of his previous honours was a technicality.
