I am just tired of these dumb conservatives making any and every excuse to not include LGBT student in school non discrimination policies. If they were were gay or transgender they would want these policies in place to protect them from descrimination.

The attacks often happen so quickly that I can not wait for mercenaries to come save my nation. Often, I don't find out about the attacks until most of the demage has already happened. Also, mercenaries cost money.

Ok then.

Well, only one nation in my alliance is in my war range and it would take a while for him to respond to my messages. Raiders have done a lot of damge to my country before I am even able to find out about it. All of the nations that have raided me also spend all of their money on military, so my military is not large enough to defeat their militaries.

Maybe not to you, but raiders have destroyed and huge amount of infra in Flanders' capital, Antwerp, stolen hundred-thousands of dollars from my nation and forced me to give them tons of money and resources. I would say that raiding has been very damaging to my nation's economic and military growth.

The problem is that we can't really stop it. Most alliances (especially Arrgh) are either unwilling or even encourage the raiding of other nations by their members. Also, we could not defeat these raiders militarily.

OK, well raiding is the largest problem in orbis because raids are very damaging to the nations being raided because of the infrastructure and military units that they destroy, and the nations that raid are not only doing actual damage to the nations that they raid, they are also doing emotional demage. Raiders are basically sending a message to every nation that they raid that says "I am stronger than you. I can do what I want." It is terrible and morally wrong.

That is my thing

Raiding. It is rediculous how often I am raided and how little I can really do about it.

Well, if everyone got along, their would be fewer wars. If their were fewer wars, it would be more difficult to make money because the prices of the resources used in wars would decrease. It would be harder to sell those resources and make a large profit.

I am investing in commerce, but nations that constantly raid other nations often only invest in military and make all of their money by raids.

Oh, well, I am ok with alliance wars as long as no one attacks my nation or my alliance. Huge alliance wars cause the prices of almost all goods to increase, which increases the amount of money my nation makes per day, but they do increase they price of uranium on the market which is not good for my country. Also, many of the larger nations in my alliance have been obliterated and decimated by senseless wars, so maybe that's not the best thing for Orbis.

Greatly increasing the size of the country's military would destroy our nation's economy because of the high military upkeep costs.

I completely agree that the raids on our nations need to stop. All of the people that have raided me have militaries larger than mine could ever be at my level because those nations with giant militaries are only able to pay for their militaries with money they make from raiding. The Republic of Flanders could never do that because it is against the morals and ethics of the nation and our alliance.

Yes, yes you may.

Ok, thank you

Hello Mr. Horrell

Just because it should be considered bullying, doesn't mean that it will be considered bullying by school district administrators. If LGBTQ students are not specifically mentioned in the district policies then when an LGBTQ student is descriminated against nothing will be done. And if anyone complains about nothing being done then the school district officials will insist that it is not against the district rules or any law that applies to the students in the school district, and will do nothing.

Yes, I knew about the first law, but that is for employment and does not apply to students in schools. The second law does not include sexual orientation or gender identity. Only descrimination based on race, ethnicity, national origin, gender, disability, and maritial status or prohibited in the second law. Yes, well obviously adding LGBTQ students to the school districts non-decrimination policy will not entirely stop people from decriminating against LGBT students. Do laws against murder stop all murders? No. The point of adding gender identity and sexual orientation to the districts non decrimination policy is to make sure that there are consequences for decriminating against people who are LGBT.
