UN: Repeal 'Rights of Minorities and Women'

[repaxan]

UN Repeal Text:

Description: UN Resolution #80: Rights of Minorities and Women (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Strong) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: UN Law "Rights of Minorities and Women" BAD!!!

Article I say "No one race or culture is better than another." What mean "better"? UN law not tell what "better" mean. This not protect any rights.

Article II say "Males and Females should be treated as equals. Whether it be in the workplace or at home". What mean "equals"? UN law not tell what "equal" mean. This not protect any rights.

Article III say "Not a single religion or belief is better or more right than another." This not tell what "better" mean either. Not tell what "right" mean. This not protect any rights.

Article IV say: "One should have the right to express their love for a member of the same sex." What "express their love" mean? UN law not say. This not protect any rights.

UN law use word "should" too much. Not strong word.

UN law not protect rights of minorities. Only mention "race" once in preamble part. Mention "race or culture" in Article I. Never mention again.

UN law not protect rights of women. Only say "should be treated as equals" in Article II. Never mention again.

UN law "Discrimination Accord" protect some rights. "Discrimination Accord" GOOD!!! "Discrimination Accord" still protect rights after this repealed. "Rights of Minorities and Women" not protect any rights.

UN Law "Rights of Minorities and Women" do nothing, just happy words to make UN people feel good. Stand in way of new law that protect rights.

UN Law "Rights of Minorities and Women" BAD!!! UN repeal.

I do not support this repeal movement.

Yes, the wording is amusing, but I'd prefer my UN nation's Civil Rights category to be high.

[Twobagger]

While I do agree with repealing this resolution, I object to the outright moronic wording. This sort of writing indicates that the author thinks his/her proposal is too weak to stand on its own, so the author "props it up" with some kind of gimmick (as seen here), or by demeaning something else (as seen here).
If the author thinks the proposal is too weak on its own, I am inclined to agree. Voting AGAINST.

[Lichto]

Agreed with the above statement.

[Govindia (Denivogar)]

I agree with Twobagger's sentiments and have voted AGAINST on this....

[Kawaroo]

Voted against.
It's a funny resolution, tho.

[Petalumadom]

Ya, funny to read...

But I vote against...

AWP has also voted against... It's currently

Votes For: 2,375

Votes Against: 2,099

Everyone be sure to vote using your UN nations ability too... those added up... add up

[Queen P of Pretty Ponys]

I voted for.

Sorry everyone,
I'm a woman, too, but this resolution takes things too far. I don't need the UN interfering in my citizen's HOMES as stated in article IV, and I reserve the right to have a state religion, that is "better" than the others.

Regretfully,
Queen P
