No

“Religions should be respected but never forced.”

No

“This is a shocking violation of the personal freedoms of Avalonians. Under no circumstances can we foist religion on the people with total disregard for the individual beliefs of a person. We will also not support the civilian carrying of firearms because of the massive risks to health and safety it brings.”

Centrist Zone
Voted May 29, 2020
Yes

“This law will increase individual liberty and free market”

Left Alliance
Voted May 29, 2020
No

“Forcing a religion on people is not a goid idea, Avalon won't be turned into a theocracy”
