the Percy Jackson movie sucks
Okay, im really well versed in movies, new and old. But im a huge reader to, and I am always excited when a movie adaption comes along for that book. Some of it is a massive success like Harry Potter, some a fun popcorn flick like the Avengers, and some of it is a complete and utter screw-up Like Percy Jackson and the Olympians, The Lightning Thief. Never have I seen something so badly adapted since Twilight, and that already sucked! So, the arguement is, is this a good film. Ill lay down some g...
Euthanasia needs to be made legal for those who need it

Marijuana should be illegalized
There are plenty reasons in the world to make marijuana illegal. The first reason is that it is bad for you. Plenty of people develop serious chronic diseases. The next reason is that if you are then a hazard to others. Being high is dangerous, if you need to get high from a plant, then you shouldn't spend money on it. Why not just "get high" on the moment and the excitement. I am high on the moment every time I go into action. Every time I went to play baseball, I was high on the moment and I n...
Ronald Reagan was the best president in the 20th Century.
Ronald Reagan accomplished many things in is two terms. Domestically, he curbed Carter's enormous inflation. He also cut taxes drastically, which spurred business. In foreign policy, he brought the Russians to their knees, and fought the spread of communism. He also rebuilt America. Their military, their prestige, and most importantly, their morale. America had been humiliated by Vietnam and the hostage crisis. Most people would say FDR was the best president of the 20th Century. However, th...
Global warming is likely (and mostly) anthropogenic
This is for Subutai's environmental tournament. In this debate, I am for the resolution. The BOP will be even since this is a contested issue--BOP shall not be negotiated.

Ariel Castro VS Jodi Arias (who is worse?)
Hello everyone! Based on the two biggest issues on the news during the last week, I think this would be a fun debate. How this will work, is that my opponent will pick one person in round one. This debate will be about determining who is more sick and twisted out of Jodi Arias, and Ariel Castro. I will take either one. Debate will take place in rounds 2 and 3. Thanks in advance to whoever accepts this. :)...
