Wikileaks

Wikileaks should be classified as a terrorist organization bent on the downfall of the United States of America. This will be the Pf debate style. Contention- Wikileaks should be shut down because it is a terrorist organization with only one goal in mind and that is to destroy the United States of America.The latest breed of anarchist is not a protester who takes to the streets, Molotov cocktail in hand. His weapon of choice is the laptop and his battleground the Internet, which he uses to s...

Should we pull out of Iraq?

Herbert Hoover once said, "Older men declare war, but it is the youth that must fight and die." Our invasion of Iraq is unjustified we went there in search of weapons of mass destruction, but we found none, and still we are there. Its like a search warrant, you search for the things you are looking for only. We dont need to try to control another country when we can barley control our own...

I am interested in the debate over whether it is right the prisoner's should have the right to vote. My argument is that Prisoners should have the right to vote becuase it is a human right and once we begin taking away human rights where can we draw the line? If we assume the belief that someone forfits their human rights when convicted of a crime, what is protecting prisoners from unjust treatment and torture? This is my first argument, but I am interested in how other people feel on this i...

the possesion of nuclear weapons is immoral

jaylen.dodds
Grape

Resolved: that the possession of nuclear weapons is immoral. I stand strongly affirmative on this issue. I would like to begin by defining a few terms defined by Webster's dictionary the first being nuclear weapons: being a weapon whose destructive power derives from an uncontrolled nuclear reaction. The next being immoral: not moral; broadly: conflicting with generally or traditionally held moral principles. I will be basing my debate today on the value of the sanctity of life. The value debate...
