You keep saying that, but what is the point of passing the act if it has no power or effect?

I agree with Xolox, it's more like saying this law is: "WA Human Rights Suggestions"


This proposed Act will serve as standards and add dimension to our roleplay since this could be used only as basis for accusing another country of human rights violations without any legal liabilities but only add pressure to the concerned country.

Just like in real life where the Universal Declaration of Human Rights has been adopted yet is not observed by many nations.

I suppose this makes sense. However, I cannot agree with Article 11. I feel that everyone should be responsible for supporting their own weight.

Article 3. No one shall be held in slavery or servitude.
Article 4. No one shall be subjected to cruel or degrading treatment or punishment.
Article 5. Everyone has the right to recognition everywhere as a person before the law. Thus, all are equal before the law and are entitled to equal protection of the law. 
Article 6. Everyone is entitled in full equality to a fair trial by an impartial tribunal, in the determination of his rights and obligations and of any criminal charge against him.
Article 7. Everyone has the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty according to law in a fair trial at which he has had all the guarantees necessary for his defense.
Article 8. Men and women of full age have the right to marry and to found a family.
Article 9. Everyone has the right to freedom of exercising religion.
Article 10. Everyone has the right to freedom of expressing opinion.
Article 11. Everyone has the right to work and to free choice of employment.
Article 12. Everyone has the right to education.
Article 13. All the provisions of this Act are encouraged to be observed universally by all nation states of the world as basis for determining the fundamental rights of all mankind. All the provisions of this Act are encouraged to be adopted into domestic laws, and if possible, international arrangements, by all nation states, without prejudice to their heritage.


NOTICE: A three (3) day debate and amendment period has been called. Please be guided.

While still under the period of amendments, the Eurussian Government initiated a full review of the provisions of the proposed WA Human Rights Act that resulted into additional provision, removal of critical provisions to a nation's sovereignty, and revisions of existing provisions to ensure the complete and consistent interpretation of the Act in the future.
Everyone is encouraged to share their views.

When someone breaks the laws and are prosecuted, their rights are taken as defined by your country's laws.

This act will not do a thing, the anti freedom counties will just ignore these types of acts. Like they do in real life.
