should Socrates have killed himself
Socrates didn't matter; he only annoyed his fellow Athenians and made them look stupid. He also spread unorthodox stories of the gods. The evidence he uses to defend is case is dubious at best since all the authorities he draws upon are dead. "Chaerephon is dead himself but this brother, who is in court, will confirm the truth of the story" as shown by this statement the originator of the tale of Socrates"s wisdom is dead and all we have to go upon is hearsay....

Easy win for me
Full resolution: The purpose of this debate is for me to receive an easy win. As a brief bit of background information, this debate is derived from ReformedArsenal's RFD on this debate -> http://www.debate.org/debates/This-is-not-a-debate/1/ My opponent was given the conduct voter as I was apparently trying to "Game the system" for a free win.

If forced into a fight, a lion would defeat any other big cat.
"Big Cats" are seen as Lions, Leopards, Jaguars, and Tigers. As Pro I will argue that a lion would defeat any of these animals if forced into a fair fight. (1v1) Terms: -3 rounds -500 character max My Argument: A lion is the largest cat. At over 500 hundred pounds and almost 11 feet long this beast is the ultimate predator. They have 3 inch canines and 3 inch claws which they use in devouring their prey and challenging other males. They are called "King of the Jungle" for a reason...
Abused Women - Second Chance?
Once the abuser has struck the women, should they be given a second chance without dealing with the law? I'm not saying that what they did to hurt the person is right, but most everyone deserves a second chance. If we don't give them forgiveness, how should we expect them to change their way?...
