I have to give a persuasive presentation in class tomorrow and haven't even decided on a topic. What should I try to convince people of? Note that i need to be able to provide solid evidence for it, but I'm not allowed to use graphics

Also no, I'm not convincing anyone that some tragedy was a government hoax

Persuade them that eating semen is directly related to GPA and that consuming more semen directly correlates to the GPA.

Use female classmates with high grades as examples.

Do a persuasive essay on how Hitler did nothing wrong.

Persuade them that cereal is actually bread-soup

If this wasn't a liberal arts school and i didn't use students in class as an example, I might actually be able to get away with this

Convince niggers to go back to africa

Make a case that people that watch MLP are Tumblr shills.

Persuade them that the concept of a 'legal age of consent' is a stupid law with no real reason for existing.

Include in your argument the legal age in germany is 14 and japan's is 12.

Both are first world developed countries.

>liberal arts school
Jesus, it's like you kids deliberately don't want to succeed at anything in life.

Convince them that niggers are actually subhuman

you're on B so you are probably very informed in killing ones self.

Prepare yourself to lose friends, but do one over that Homosexuality is indeed a mental illness

but yea, I'm actually just here for the gay rights and art history

Convince your class that your persuasive presentation isn't successfully persuasive.

>has one of the best undergrad business programs in the state
You're going to be a drag on society and complain about how you can't get a "real job" and can't afford to pay off your student loan debt.

The death penalty is a good thing and should be applied to any criminal beyond saving (ie; all those serving life sentences).

To prove your point, you could start by calculating the savings we would be making (average cost of a prisoner serving life, cost of an execution).

You could also argue that this will make prisons safer (find stats of criminal acts done by prisoners serving life sentences) for those who actually have a chance of being rehabilitated.

You could then go on with how these savings could be invested in actually reforming those who will come out of prison. Look at the budgets and how they are distributed, look at what is being done around the world, reallocate the money "saved" by the executions towards more effective/important activities.

It's 16 for girls and 18 for boys in Japan, where on earth did you get 12 from?

How long does your speech have to be and how long have you had to decide a topic?

this

i think it costs more to house a death row inmate that an inmate in general population.

and it also takes forever to actually send an inmate to death. they can make a few appeals and each one can take up years.
it adds up to millions of dollars wasted.

but I do agree that criminals beyond saving needs to be executed.

4-5 minutes long and about a week to decide on a topic

Actually, it seems it is 13.

Wrote a speech just like this for AP english in High School. Stats are easy to find back up, controversial enough to make it persuasive and debatable, and interesting too.

there are also tons of shows about inmates on death row.

>The death penalty is a good thing and should be applied to any criminal beyond saving (ie; all those serving life sentences).
A criminal "beyond saving" has mental issues. His place is a psychiatric ward, not a jail.
>To prove your point, you could start by calculating the savings we would be making (average cost of a prisoner serving life, cost of an execution).
Justice should not be a money issue. Also, while life sentences can be revoked if a mistake was made, death sentences aren't.
>You could also argue that this will make prisons safer (find stats of criminal acts done by prisoners serving life sentences) for those who actually have a chance of being rehabilitated.
You could argue that. You would be wrong.
>You could then go on with how these savings could be invested in actually reforming those who will come out of prison. Look at the budgets and how they are distributed, look at what is being done around the world, reallocate the money "saved" by the executions towards more effective/important activities.
Again, justice should not be a money issue.

If you look up the AoC for Japan it says it's 13, though I heard it is 13 in Tokyo and one other city with 18 being across the board. Though it could mean that the AoC cannot be lowered past 13

justice is a money issue.

if I was paying for your someone else's stupidity then it becomes a financial issue to me.

My only issue with using the death penalty is that I know a lot of death row inmates end up being found innocent because it turns out there wasnt enough accurate evidence when they were sentenced. Hell, I just signed a petition to help some death row inmate out a few weeks ago.

>A criminal "beyond saving" has mental issues. His place is a psychiatric ward, not a jail.

That's like your opinion... And it's pretty retarded if you can't do anything about it, a dog that bites need to be put down, not isolated and fed because the poor guy doesn't know any better.

> Justice should not be a money issue. Also, while life sentences can be revoked if a mistake was made, death sentences aren't.

Everything is a money issue you fucking moron. Oh sure, you can wish it was not, you can be a moralfag if you want, it doesn't change the fact that money rules the fucking world. I don't know about you but I am paying for these fuckers, so unless you want to fund it, it's not even remotely a valid argument.
Mistakes can be made, sure.. Life sentence by mistake isn't a walk in the park either.

> You could argue that. You would be wrong.

Compelling argument...

> Again, justice should not be a money issue.

Fuck off already about what should and should not be. World hunger should stop, war should be banned...

Is this even 4 chan

Some real topics
> Hitler did nothing wrong
> 2D girls > 3D girls

> Usa should nuke Korea
> Islam is evil
> Feminism is cancer (Could actually be a legit topic).

There is plenty really.

@Op Are you a ginger?

Maybe what we should change are the requirements to actually sentence someone to die. Death penalty is not inherently bad because it's being used badly.

Death penalty usage should be expanded and number of appeals and review mechanisms should be reduced to reduce cost to the public. Crimes for which death penalty should be applied to include all premeditated murder, any second conviction for rape (not statutory) and any second conviction for trafficking more than 10 kilos of illegal narcotics not marijuana (drug lords and high level traffickers). You will find a ton of statistics on recidivism online. You will find that statistically, rapists are almost certain to have multiple victims, thus the second conviction demonstrates proof that rehabilitation is unlikely to succeed. Ditto for high and middle level drug traffickers. Premeditated murder is not easy to prove, and the death penalty need not be sought in cases of doubt. The prosecutor has the privilege of determining when is will be sought, and usually only does so in slam dunk cases. This provides a protection against mistaken executions. It's not perfect, but it's damn good.

OP here,
I'm thinking that I should try to persuade people that living in a constant state of fear is a good thing. I can bring in biological factors (strengthening synapses in the amygdala), psychological factors (people being on high alert 24/7) and other stuff

Basically, terrorism is healthy. thoughts?

user what world do you live in?

Everything in the world is deeply affected by money whether you like it or not. Whether we think it should or not.

Retarded and easily debunked.

choose butthash and tell them it'll get them ''high as shit nigger''

watching horror movies has literally been shown to increase white blood cell count and increase oxytocin

How the fuck is this easily debunked?

convince people that there are only two genders.

use evidence such as the physical evidence, psychological conditions like gender dysphoria, gender swappers being diagnosed with an addiction to surgery and augmentation, and the risks of diagnosing children with hormone inhibitors just because they appear to be more feminine.

If I read that right, doesn't that mean that forcibly having sex with a girl under 13, and doing so with her consent share the same mandatory minimum. Seems a little backwards to me.

convince people that circumcision is genital mutilation.

bring up the Kellog brothers, how it was originally proposed as a method to keep men from masturbating, how it doesn't stop phimosis and other diseases but just makes them harder to identify, and the loss of necessary functions of the organ itself, such as self-lubrication.

how about how Traditional Martial Arts (wing chun, tai chi, hapkido) are completely ineffective in a fighting situation, despite claims to the contrary, while sport-oriented systems such as judo, wrestling, jiu-jitsu, muay thai, and boxing are very effective, with a few in the middle (karate, taekwondo)?

no graphics though? that's boring af

Hitler did nothing wrong.

You are trying to argue for putting a lot of mental strain on people in a world where more people then ever get sick from an high amount of stress.

>What should I try to convince people of?

That you're a faggot. Should be super easy.

wing chun is a practical art, it's based around taking out your opponent with the least amount of physical exertion used as fast as possible.

tai chi is the groundwork for learning all forms of martial art. elements of it are even used in boxing. tai chi teaches you how to respond to an opponent, there are offensive, defensive, passive, and neutral responses for every movement your opponent can make, and there are over 40 different styles of tai chi, each with 24 different moves at least.

here is a fight between muay thai and tai chi chuan form 42 (competition form).

Does not matter user. Everything has pros and cons and if we only see the pros we can literary argue for everything and anything.

should have said, blue shins is muay thai, red shins is tai chi.

Persuade them on how community college is a failure and you will never get anywhere unless you pick the right university name

euthanasia man.

easy topic and very controversial.

Niggers are shit.
Ask them to provide stuff niggers actually invented besides AIDS.
Ask them why niggers were still in stone age while every other player was in medieval/renaissance age.
Find more questions. Be creative. You can be creative, remember, you're not a nigger...

That gender isn't a social construct

convince them to be gay
