Prayer in public debate questions

Pro:
How would you prevent it from being misused and forcing a certain religion on people.

Con:
How can there be freedom of religion in a nation that doesn't allow for people to even pray in public or at public events.

It was short and had no real strong backing behind it. They thought it was just "silly remarks". The speech was slowly accepted into popularity instead of right away.

No I don't think it is because the town meeting is strictly government and should not be infused with prayer of any religion, unless it includes all or every one of each present.

euthanasia debate

The pros believe it will end suffering and just quicken what is guaranteed to happen. the cons believe it goes against the Hippocratic oath and it might be misused.
The cons pointed specific instances where they were misused. the pros continued on the suffering rout.
 well overall I believe courtney and lizz were better prepared and answered the questions better throughout the debate.

euthanasia debate questions

I think it would be so life altering to be paralyzed that death might be preferred for me. I probably would have chosen the same.

I disagree with it and believe all store should be closed on a federal holiday like thanksgiving. However I understand if someone employees want the extra money or need it.
The US is liberal in allowing gay people the right to free expression. And each state can choose whether to allow marriage and how liberal they want to be. In Russia, they are prosecuted and can be put in jail if they support gay people.

Drinking age debate

The opening statements are alright, however zack and joey made much better points in theirs
The crossfire was once again better with Joey and Zack as they pointed out many flaws in Grants and Simons argument.
The rebuttal was won by zack and joey as well since they showed the flaws with grant and simon as well as made good points of their own.
The closing remarks were about the same for both with neither being better.

I think since it is making it tougher to vote, people will not come out to the polls to vote since they don't feel like dealing with it.
I think it is not intended to take away voter's rights, but has a chance, since not everyone has a valid ID and it is unconstitutional to require them to buy something to vote when it is a right.

This is not a justifiable shooting at all, especially since he wasn't vandalizing or even on the shooter's property. This just says that some people are too trigger happy when it comes to guns.
