Quotes:"People will come, Ray. The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again. Oh... people will come, Ray. People will most definitely come. "

Torture is sometimes morally permissible.

Freeman
tribefan011

Torture can be morally justified in rare circumstances. In the case of a ticking time bomb that could destroy a city and potentially kill millions of people the use of coerced interrogation to extract information can be justified. I am not arguing that torture should be made legal. Torture, like theft, could be ethical under certain parameters and still be against the law. Nor am I arguing that a general practice of torture can be made from the scenario I outlined above. What I wish to argue is...

tribefan011

I will Prove that Affirmative Action is more harmful than helpful. Affirmative Action is in itself causing more division between races instead of bringing them together.

Affirmative action - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affirmative_action "The terms affirmative action and positive action refer to policies that take race ... into consideration in an attempt to promote equal opportunity or increase ethnic diversity." This does not include jobs in which a certain race is obviously preferable, such as casting for the role of George Lopez's son for the TV show "George Lopez." A Latino actor would obviously be preferable, and was therefore chosen. Let the debat...

youngpolitic
tribefan011

Cap-and-Trade is a Bill that has sadly made it through the House of Representatives. It is a bill that has been created to "combat global warming" and to "lower the dangerous levels of CO2 in the air". To do this Cap-and-Trade will set up a hugely bureaucratic system that would assign tax credits to a certain amount of CO2 emmisions. Say a factory is producing 50 tons of CO2 a day (this is just a made up scenario based on no actual figures) Cap-and-Trade would say that this company has to pay 25...
