Repeal "Common Sense Act II"

A proposal to repeal a previously passed resolution
 
Category: Repeal
   
Resolution: #30
   
Proposed by: Dashanzi

Description: UN Resolution #30: Common Sense Act II (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Significant) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: UN Resolution #30: Common Sense Act II (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Significant) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: The United Nations,

REGRETFULLY ACKNOWLEDGING that individuals may be reckless, irresponsible, ignorant and/or foolish, and

SOBERLY MINDFUL of the potential for the waste of time and resources represented by such individuals,

NONETHELESS REMAINS AGOG at the chutzpah exhibited in crafting a resolution that seeks to legislate against stupidity, yet which simultaneously fails to account for the myriad factors involved in personal decision-making, and furthermore

RAILS MOST FURIOUSLY at those who seek to undermine the lofty goals of this institution by assailing it with such egregious trivialities and alarmist pettifoggery, and consequently

RIGHTEOUSLY PURIFIES the UN statute of this most disingenuous resolution by

REPEALING United Nations Resolution #30: Common Sense Act II.

Votes For: 2,136

Votes Against: 1,014

Voting Ends: Tue Oct 16 2007

My instinct is not to vote for repeals. But Since the consensus seems to be to vote "for" that is the way I am goign at the moment.

 Our Delegate duly informed us some days ago that a nation of Taijitu has a resolution up to nomination in the U.N. I wanted to ask, is there any possibility of introducing some sort of "chutzpah" amendment to it (i.e., making the word "chutzpah" to appear in it at any cost)? The success of the resolution would then be absolutely guaranteed...  :-P
