An Amendment to BOR.I
BE IT ENACTED BY THE STATE OF FIRESTONE CONGRESS THAT:
§ Section I: The Firestone Bill of Rights shall be amended:
§ Section II: Section I of the Firestone Bill of Rights currently states: “Citizens shall be free of prosecution when expressing an opinion. The impediment of freedom of speech is a crime. Defamation and slander are not illegal unless under special circumstances if set by Congress. The deletion of wall posts without the permission of the poster is forbidden; however, a wall post may be deleted freely if it is spam, a scam, or is not official to the State of Firestone. Furthermore, press agencies have the freedom of press and the unalienable right to report news without fear of government interference or censorship: no legislation can impede on the right to publish. Freedom of Speech will only be restricted by the ROBLOX Rules of Conduct, Terms of Service, or Privacy Policy; although no individual may be prosecuted in a court of law for violating standards set by the ROBLOX Rules of Conduct, Terms of Service, or Privacy Policy. The use of external communications or sites, outside of ROBLOX, as evidence in a court of law for instances of slander, defamation and/or harassment is not valid and such evidence are to be dismissed. Law enforcement agencies and their officers are obligated to yield parts of their right to speech upon a citizen’s request to know their name, callsign, and/or badge number, and they must oblige within 2 minutes; however they are not obligated to do so in a situation deemed simply too intense and pressing for such, with reasoning plausible, and may delay its provision until the intense and pressing situation is resolved. Further, law enforcement is only obligated to comply with requests for name, callsign, and/or badge that are made in English, and are requested while said officer is on duty. Law Enforcement must state their name, callsign, and/or badge number within the global ROBLOX chat in-game. They are not to use /whisper or any other in-game command to otherwise avoid informing the requesting citizen with their credentials.”
§ Section III: Section I of the Firestone Bill of Rights shall now read: “Citizens shall be free of prosecution when expressing an opinion. The impediment of freedom of speech is a crime. Defamation and slander are not illegal unless under special circumstances if set by Congress. The deletion of wall posts without the permission of the poster is forbidden; however, a wall post may be deleted freely if it is spam, a scam, or is not official to the State of Firestone. Furthermore, press agencies have the freedom of press and the unalienable right to report news without fear of government interference or censorship: no legislation can impede on the right to publish. Freedom of Speech will only be restricted by the ROBLOX Rules of Conduct, Terms of Service, or Privacy Policy; although no individual may be prosecuted in a court of law for violating standards set by the ROBLOX Rules of Conduct, Terms of Service, or Privacy Policy. The use of external communications or sites, outside of ROBLOX, as evidence in a court of law for instances of slander, defamation and/or harassment is not valid and such evidence are to be dismissed. Whilst on-duty law enforcement agencies and their officers are obligated to yield parts of their right to speech upon a visible citizen’s request to know their name, callsign, and/or badge number, and they must oblige within 3 minutes; however, they are not obligated to do so in a situation deemed simply too intense and pressing for such, with reasoning plausible, and may delay its provision until the intense and pressing situation is resolved. Further, law enforcement is only obligated to comply with requests for name, callsign, and/or badge that are made in the modern English language. Law Enforcement must state their name, callsign, and/or badge number within the global ROBLOX chat in-game. They are not to use /whisper or any other in-game command to otherwise avoid informing the requesting citizen with their credentials.”
§ Section IV: This legislation shall go in effect immediately after passage and the constitutional procedure required.
Respectfully submitted to the Congress of Firestone,
Chief Sponsor:
Right Honourable Senator Ash1835
