Repeal "Condemn The Black Riders"; Voting ends 1st September

The Security Council;

Frustrated with the failings of SC#91 which falls short of what should be expected of a condemnation of a region like The Black Riders including references to "cultural genocide";

Recognizing the intent, but poor draftsmanship of SC#91, and it's obvious attempts through choice of language to portray The Black Riders as grotesque monsters by exaggerating their presence within targeted regions as "oppressive and horrific";

Observing that this condemnation has done little to starve The Black Riders of their desire to continue to be a destructive force within the known world;

Determined not to further a region to which the current condemnation serves little more than a furtherment to continue these actions and as a badge and banner under which they march to their ends, despite the previous resolutions fear that The Black Riders would serve an "encouragement of other allied raiders, raider regions, anti-WA establishments and attitudes" if they were not condemned;

Observing that the antics of The Black Riders at this point, while still negative and hurting to those regions they sack with reckless abandon, carry little weight in any other form in the international community and thus are not deserving of a condemnation;

Hereby;
Repeals SC#91 "Condemn The Black Riders"

The best part of this resolution was lost in translation, the observing line should read:

And that small change is enough to earn my support.

What stripe?
And does anyone think removing the condemnation will change their desire to continue to be a destructive force within the known world.

They crave attention. Condemning them or repealing the condemnation -- it has the same effect. Look at us! We're important!

When the SC comes up with a way to officially ignore and show disinterest in a nation, let me know.

Thing is, the SC becomes irrelevant itself then. Not that I would have a problem with that.
