I ask the speaker to yield the floor to me for two minutes. Thank you.

The arguments presented by my esteemed colleagues of the KAK represent their extreme Puritanistic, presuppositional, prejudices against those that they believe are inferior to themselves. Their arguments reek of “Manifest Destiny”, feudalism, fascism, and tyrannical intolerance. They treat the Kobold as an ignorant savage, which must be dealt with harshly, and even eradicated. Stating that any integration of the Kobold into our society would lead to anarchy is simply proof of my esteemed colleagues presuppositional prejudices. We must remove the yoke of oppression that our society has placed upon the Kobold tribes. We must make educational opportunities available to them. Are we talking about assimilation? Nay. We are talking integration. Remove the yokes of oppression. Destroy the walls of tyranny. Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!

Lord Brass has insinuated that I, Champion of the Common Kobold, may be, in fact, not of my right mind. Well I will make this challenge here before the forum today. I Mr.Underhill, not Mulahey as some members have been so absurd as to suggest, (See earlier comments on Kobold blood not being too far back up the family tree) shall submit myself to the care of a cleric of whose faith I shall let my detractors decide so there will be no petty squabling over whether or not the results are rigged. And we shall see what that cleric has to say about the health of my mind. I will go immediately and without delay one the Temple has been named and we shall see. Poisoned mind indeed, I doubt any of the members of KAK have become friendly enough with Kobolds to even dream of the purdent arts that their females are capable of as the esteemed Mr. Snark the Strange has endevored to point out. And let us hear no petty picking at his name as well for any of you who know him knows that he is called "strange" not due to his affinity for our Kobold sisters but because he tried to infiltrate the Cloakwood Mines under the guise of Daveron's personal jester. So there it is before you...your chance to prove your claims. I can not help but wonder if any of my detractors (cough"LORD BRASS"cough) will take up my gauntlet and see this through.

You do realize that with no limits on Kobold procreation that the Sword Coast will be overrun with the critters. You will upset the balance which no druid in his right mind can ignore.

[img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img] I guess if you do go though with this insanity I could actually profit from it by being paid to exterminate the critters when you realize the folly in allowing the Kobolds to run amuck for to long.

Any ideas for the name I could name this Kobold exterminating company? All members could split the profits minus our equipment of course, Who is in? How about 50gp a head for each Kobold?

This is just getting pathetic. *casts Finger of Death at Baggins and Keraptism* Even if you make you saving throws you will feel the agony of your life energies leaving you for all eternity. Kobolds serve no other purpose other than to line the walls of my trophy room (their preserved heads make excellent torch holders).

I second the motion put forward by the fine member of this forum Keraptisdm and do call this item to a vote. Remember a vote for the Kobolds is a vote for decency, freedom, and equity throughout the Sword Coast. And who can tell maybe the rest of the world will see what we do here today and the Kobold race will trive and flourish throughout the land. Myself, I shall take the honor of casting the first "AYE" vote for the betterment of our Kobold brethern. How shall history remember you my friends?

For the betterment of a repressed race; for making a better world for all. For turning to the better Angels of our Nature. I vote: AYE!

The Xart are the more humanoid creature, with nice little villages, away from all the inocents, not under the command of any goon who wants to rule the world. Kobalds are overgrown ratboys, only good for extermanation. NAY!

Hmmm well with a haircut, a shave mb and ALOT of perfume... they would make great butlers. You know...it would be like a monkey butler... without the intelligence.
