MARCH MIRRORBOUND COUNCIL POST
Welcome to the Mirrorbound Council discussion post for the month of March! This is the space to discuss IC concerns from your characters that can be brought to Parliament by members of the Mirrorbound Council. Here are some quick facts!
• Membership in the Mirrorbound Council is open, so if your character is the type to get involved, you're more than welcome to sign up here.
• More information on the Council's history, current members, and motions can be found here.
• Each motion must be cosigned by 3 Council members.
• Each council member can only cosign 1 motion per month.
• As a result, there may be months where not all motions can be raised. In that case, motions will be brought to Parliament in the order of greatest IC support to least IC support.
• To suggest an IC motion, please post to the most appropriate heading below. Make sure to list the name of the character who would suggest it so they get credit!
• To support an IC motion, comment to the motion with either "+1" or some other indication of your character's support. There's no limit on how many motions each character can support, so be sure to check the whole post!
• All characters can suggest and support motions ICly — not just Council members! Consider this post an OOC representation of an open-forum style discussion open to all Mirrorbound. The goal is to get as many people involved as possible, both ICly and OOCly, so don't hesitate to chime in!
• The deadline to submit motions is March 15th. After submissions close, Council members will attach their names to motions and submit them to the mod team by March 25th.
• All OOC ideas and suggestions are welcome as well, so please hit us up!
FINAL MOTIONS LIST | OOC DISCUSSION & BRAINSTORMING

He doesn't find it unrealistic to assume that corruption still exists within the Guard. It is wise to be mindful of that and to use the presence of Mirrorbound among them to monitor that corruption as well as not wholly rely upon the Guard for protection for that very reason. Thus, it is motivated by wisdom to place the Mirrorbound in such close quarters with the Guard and to be prepared to make the decision of when to act more independently than the rank and file to protect Mirrorbound interests and deal with the consequences later.
However, a Patrol so solely focused on the Mirrorbound and refugee districts is one that seems more motivated by fear and paranoia than wisdom. It also runs entirely counter to another motion that Giorno is proposing regarding housing (which Ozymandias is so greatly in favor of, it's almost like he wrote it himself) wherein the Mirrorbound and refugees can integrate more fully into the city by not limiting themselves to specific neighborhoods or districts. Further segregation and cloistering like that is what will likely leave them far more vulnerable in the future as it makes them easier targets whereas more even distribution will make it far more difficult for those who would act against them.
Never mind that it is not just the Mirrorbound and Refugees who experience discrimination in the city. They may take a great deal of it, but they cannot neglect the anti-Monster sentiments that still (likely) lingers about.
This motion would only gain Ozymandias' support that the Patrol is amended to cover the entirety of the city and that its objectives are not presented as being so blatantly in favor of the Mirrorbound and refugees. Otherwise, he shall remain a neutral party and wait for a more appropriate time to put his support in for such a thing.

It seems as though everyone is ICly on a similar page, even if not the same page. There are some differences of opinion regarding execution of the overarching idea of getting Mirrorbound involved in law enforcement. To sum it up briefly, I think there are the following options for a motion:
A. Asura's original suggestion: a Mirrorbound Patrol, parallel to but not answerable to the City Guard or Coven.
B. The modified suggestion: Mirrorbound officers integrated throughout the City Guard.
C. Combo platter: a motion containing stipulations for both of the above.
D. Tabling the motion for the month and coming back to it at a later date.
What would everyone prefer to do with this motion? I'd like to make a decision by 3/18 end of day EST so we can divvy up motion assignments

But if proceeding, he will only give any modicum of support rn to B.
