We should treat the obese like animals.

Logan94

There I was, on the plane, when suddenly, a pizza-polishing fat bum moves his grossly overweight gluteus maximus over to the five seats next to me. He then lowers said body part down to all five of the empty seats next to me. He is still crunching on some fatty food and then says to me in a rather polite tone: "Wanacrisp?" (It's hard to decode Fatzonese) I stare at him as if he had just killed someone (he had, the flight attendant who was sitting next to me). I see this crisp-c...

Resolved: There is no need for testing on animals when there are 30 million Bieber fans available

Resolved: There is no need for testing products, medicines, etc on animals when there are 30 million perfectly good Justin Bieber fans available to be experimented on instead. My argument for animal testing no longer being needed is because there are 30 million Justin Biber fans we can test all of our stuff on instead. Justin Bieber fans are perfect test subjects since: 1) They have no soul, no sense of reason, no ability to comprehend reality, and therefore arent human 2) Animals that a...

There are many cases where people debate on this topic on how "humane" it is, but I want to talk more about effectiveness. I'd be glad to challenge anyone to this debate....

Gay Boy scout leaders.

KingDebater
Dann

The boy scouts made a big mistake when they maintained their position on not allowing any gay leaders [1]. This is because little boys need a diversity in activities, life isn't just putting up tents and tieing knots.

What the boy scouts are missing out on are the cool, hip and fun activities that gay leaders would introduce, such as Extreme Sewing Adventures and Radical Rainbow-drawing, with merit badges complete with pink glitter on them.

We should relax restrictions on guns

Nordenkalt444
amey

Here are some things I agree with: 1. Universal background checks 2. The prevention of allowing guns in the hands of people with certain mental health conditions. Although we cant stop them, I agree that they shouldn't have guns as easily as others. 3. People kill people, not guns. If everyone was armed, there would be less crime because nobody would want to commit crime against an armed person. 4. There should be armed policemen at every school, he can stop the killer before he even kills a...

Race is purely a social construct

Dann
The_Chaos_Heart

It has been said that race is purely a social construct with science seemingly supporting the notion. This view has gained traction, but I believe that the notion that race is purely a social construct is itself purely a social construct and that race definitely and objectively exists. As Pro, you will be arguing that it is at its most fundamental level a purely social construct. BoP Somewhat shared, but the greater weight of burden is placed on Pro. Pro must prove the proposition to...

Gift Returning

TheDarkMuffin
Dann

This debate will be arguing about whether or not it should be widely socially acceptable to return materials gifted to someone through a present back to where the materials were bought from.

I, as Pro, will be arguing that we SHOULD be able to, whether with or without external consent, be able to return a gift without resulting negative sanctions being generally appropriate.
