Hi Fellow Asgardians, so excited to be a part of this community! So i am so proud and thrilled to be involved in the entire Asgardian idea, as I'm noticing (as we all likely are), that the world seems to be falling apart around us. I'm in a place where, should this idea become a reality, I just don't know where I'd fit into this society. I'm definitely a tech person, but I work in Enterprise Software Sales, so I really don't feel that that the only expertise that someone with the ability to talk to people and work out deals is to be in politics, but that's really something I'd rather avoid. I'm good at building things when i have instructions and a guidepost to follow, but by no means am I an expert. I'm also a sci-fi/fantasy writer, but have put those dreams on hold while i build a career for my family to have financial security and stability. I'm also astute at MMA and Martial Arts as that has been my primary source of exercise and fitness for over a decade. So I'm a fighter but wouldn't really want to join any kind of security Asgardia might need to have in place in the future. So as you can see I'm all over the place! If the proverbial crap hits the fan and a nation like Asgardia is the place my family and I will seek refuge, what kind of work would I be qualified for? I know this is a bit of a strange rant for my first post, but I would just want to be of service and I'm curious as to what you more experienced citizens might recommend. Thank you for indulging this long and obnoxious post haha, and I'm super excited to join you on this journey!

Dear Nation Builders c/o Ross Cheeseright, Thank you for your endeavor to engage your government via the Parliament. As the author of the Citizens’ Rights Act, I provide the follow responses to your inquiry. In general, I will tell you that much thought has went into these articles and I collaborated with four other Parliamentarians. Additionally, it was scrutinized by Parliament as a whole, the Justice Committee and Attorneys. The stance of this document is that all freedoms and rights are bestowed upon Asgardian citizens and residents unless restricted by law. You have made certain assertions that I faced during the drafting of this law. These concerns were addressed in a diplomatic manner which leading to the final document. I will speak to your specific comments below: Article 5 Definition of “abridge” is as follows: “to reduce or lessen in duration, scope, authority, etc.; diminish; curtail” This definition makes clear that citizens and residents have full and complete freedom of speech. Of particular note, the following from the definition…”TO REDUCE OR LESSEN” The law does take in to account the digital nature Asgardia. You are failing to see that this article covers a citizen or resident whether in a digital or physical location. Specifically, there was a counter proposal that limited these rights to what I would call an online user agreement. Fortunately, I was able to get others to see the all-encompassing nature of the protections contained in the document. Understand that these protections are bestowed upon the individual and not where the individual is residing. No matter where the individual finds her/himself, these protection follow. This document does not prevent Asgardia from establishing online code of conduct for its digital outlets. I am not aware of any censorship and have seen discussions that I felt were wholly out of line but great care was taken to ensure these individuals are allowed to express their freedom of speech. Freedom of speech does not equate to anything goes. There are some limits such as but not limited to yelling fire in a theater, threatening other verbally or physically and hate speech. Article 5 & 6 Peaceful is defined as follows: “characterized by peace; free from war, strife, commotion, violence, or disorder: a peaceful reign; a peaceful demonstration.” Peace has a universally accepted meaning and understand. Your concerns here appear to be based in a standpoint of mistrust of the governmental bodies of Asgardia. We are sworn to a duty to serve the citizens/residents and faithfully execute the Constitution, Declaration of Unity of Asgardia, Act of Acts, this Citizens Rights Act and various other laws Article 7 Understand that the Citizens’ Rights Act is a foundational document that is not intended to address the specific hows. It creates the boundaries and guiding principles which relevant laws need to stay within. The example you have provided in regard to petitions is addressed in the Act on Act. Article 9 This will be addressed in subsequent Acts and administrative procedures adopted by the relevant governmental bodies for the requested information Article 10 As stated above, rights and protection are bestowed upon the individual and follow her/him where ever that may be, whether digitally or in person. Also as stated above, Asgardia can and should moderate its online digital outlets via the online code of conduct. Speaking for myself only, Asgardia’s digital outlets are a public forum for anyone interested to come and interact with one another. It is governed by the online code of conduct. I believe that Asgardia must create an online digital community that is restricted to citizens/residents only. This “private” community would enjoy all the protection that Asgardian laws and this Citizens’ Rights Act affords. Article 12 There is a principle of common understanding and I believe the article is clearly written and it intentions are also clear. The question you are apply to this article is misplaced because the article does not seek to address employment of Asgardians. It sets the boundaries and protection of employment as it relates to the employee. I find no ambiguity in the meaning of equal. I present the following definition from the dictionary: “as great as; the same as” Your other concerns shall be addressed in the relevant employment and labor laws. It would be inappropriate to address such things in the Citizens’ Rights Act. Article 13 See response to article 12 Article 14 States that everyone is entitled to education. It does mean that government will ensure all Asgardians have an opportunity to be educated within Asgardia. I expect that this is an obligation of citizens/residents. This along with your second concern/questions will be addressed in the area of education acts. Article 15 I believe your assertion is unfounded. The governmental bodies of Asgardia does not arbitrarily interfere with the rights and freedoms of its citizens and residents. As I stated above, all rights and freedoms are enjoy by citizens/residents except as limited by the acts (laws) of Asgardia. The governmental bodies of Asgardia are guided and bound by the Constitution, Declaration of Unity, the Citizens Rights Act and the other Acts (laws) adopted. Your example does not hold up as Article 5 specifically protect citizens/resident’s rights to peaceably assemble. Understand that Article 5 and the Citizens Rights Acts, as a whole, in part defines Asgardia’s purpose. You are in essence saying that the governmental bodies of Asgardia would circumvent its own laws in order to carry out its own will over the will of the people. Also, your scenario necessitates the government willful desire to suppress the people through violation and suppression of the letter and spirit of the law. I believe our government is far and away above such oppressive conduct. Article 16 Note that originally I did include specifics as you have raised but due to diplomacy I had to remove it from the documents. It was insisted that specifics be spelled out other acts. I expect these will be addressed within civil and family laws (acts). Finally, I want to thank you again for taking the time to discuss this matter and bringing your group’s concerns forward. Please note that this act was based on the UN Universal Bill of Human Rights, the Asgardian Constitution and the American Bill of Rights. I have endeavored to respond to your concerns because I am the author of the act. I am speaking for myself and not Parliament as a whole. Sincerely, Paul D. Lovette, AMP, D-1
