Only you can prevent wildfires.

Ah, the infamous Smokey the Bear and his illogical and unrealistic expectations. Nary an American born citizen exists who cannot recall from memory the baritone plea, "Only you can prevent forest fires."

In a democracy, civil disobedience is an appropriate weapon in the fight for justice

Kleptin

Hi 5,000 characters, 2 round debate, open to everybody I believe this for the following three reasons: 1.Bring stability to a society 2.Democratic governments accommodate civil disobedience 3.Civil disobedience brings immediate attention to an unjust law For my first point is that civil disobedience is a beneficial behavior in bringing about stability to a society. I would like to point out a few examples such as the Women's Suffrage movement from 1848 to 1920; it acquired the wom...
