Who is to judge what a crime is?
Who is to judge what a crime is?...if the people who make the laws have no idea of what its like to be in a position where crime is prevalent. Ultimately life is about making choices, with the notion that there will be subsequent consequences, whether they be positive or negative. One false move can have you put away for life...but then again can a second chance mean, a shot at a new life? Maybe to some, others however find themselves right back in situations where there progress is only based o...

You should be allowed to bump people with your car.
Have you ever been driving down the road and a group of people are standing in the middle of the road? They see you coming, they see you getting closer and closer yet they just sit there with some dumb look on their face. Some times they are riding bikes and swerve like they are going to turn in front of you and other times they just stand their ground, flip you off or yell some obscenity at you as you are forced to drive around them. I think you should be able to run into them to teach them a l...

Homosexuality Should Not be Permitted
Thank you, to my opponent for accepting my challenge. To begin with, statistics show that homosexuals remain faithful to one another only 25% of the time, on the other hand, heterosexual couples remain faithful to one another 80% of the time. Professionals say that the reason for only 25% of homosexuals remaining faithful to their partners is because homosexual relationships are 'unnatural,' this is not how humans were designed to live and function. Also according to, http://www.bfamilyadvoc...

Resolved: The United States ought to be considered a 'good' country.
In my profile, under the 'BIG Issues', I have marked Con by 'United States'. I have been challenged on my beliefs, and thus, I feel that I might defend my opponency to the United States as a country. For definitions: ought - implying a binding obligation good - We will be referring to 'good' in a very broad sense - satisfactory, of high quality, excellent, reliable, responsible, competent, skillful. I should clarify before the debate begins; in talking about the United States, I am n...
It's time to crackdown on geriatric spinsters
I was just thinking that it had been a while since I last posted one of my "crackdown" debates and I was pondering what section of society needed cracking down upon next when a woman came into the room and (for some reason) told me about how traumatic childbirth is. This outburst reminded me of a group of people who have been freeloading off the rest of us for far too long now and who certainly need cracking down upon, and need cracking down upon hard. Now, it's well-known that women have a g...
