The US should have a Elephant Polo league

I. Asian Elephants are very safeI am going to jump the gun on this one, and assume your opposition isn't with a United States polo league, but a US Elephant polo league. Its important for me to argue any questions you might have regarding my BOP, which is why I asked you to go first. As you can see, a Asian Elephant is only 1/3rd larger than a average sized man. The majority of people can pull themselves up on a elephant with ease. Its stubby legs make it very hard for it to step over you. I call them the midget elephants. They are the official elephant of the WEPA, or World Elephant Polo Association. A Asian Elephant has low slinking shoulders, which make it extremely easy for one to hold easy grip over the elephant. Despite what many would think, the Asian Elephant is very easy to play a high stakes sports game with. 2. WEPA safety regulationsElephant Polo is played with 4 players, or elephants, depending on the game. All elephants have 2 team members on them. One to ride the elephant, and the other to shoot the polo ball. The WEPA fully realizes all the safety concerns that come with playing with live Elephants, and its compiled a full list of regulations and safety guidelines.You can view their in depth PDF here, which you can download from the side bar.http://www.elephantpolo.com...The point is, that the only one who can be held accountable for safety accidents are the players. The rules are very detailed, and a cautious and responcible player will expierience no physical injuries in his career. I would say its a hell of a lot healthier than football or boxing. III. Niche markets in AmericaThere is no doubt in my mind that Elephant Polo will find a nice niche in America. I mean, its being played in Iceland! Iceland people! Just like their are leagues in Switzerland and Thailand. Those populations are much smaller than ours. My opponent will have to seriously contend even a small sized niche league wouldn't make a reasonable profit in America.I mean, who doesn't like to see plated Elephants charge into each other in a intense game of polo? IV. Sufficient resources and fundingThe United States has all the resources and money to get a league started. The Elephant population is very large, and the current Europe leagues are already very cheap. If I know anything about American culture, I know that there will be investors ready to pit angry elephants on a soccer field against each other. We have about 250,000 elephants that can start creating us some money. How can we not get in on this offer? Like WPEA rules, all Elephants must be kept in a conserved enviorment. We have 1000's of zoos, parks, and enviormental centers that can give our elephants proper healthcare and treatment.There is nothing hindering us from an elephant polo league.http://www.ringling.com...V. Better funding, conservation, and healthcare for American ElephantsAs I already touched upon, we have plenty of facilities for proper treatment of our elephant league players (Elephants). This does not mean our Elephants are living in near sufficient standards. The African and Asian elephants are endangered, and slowly dying off.Here is the WWF on the endangered status of Elephants.... This is very bad for the long term status of the eco-system. People often forget how serious this is, and I don't want to sound like a hippy, but this presents a larger threat than global warming or fracking. A WEPA league in America would cause 1000's of zoo sponsorships, grants, and triunes. It will lead to better healthcare and conditions for our zoo animals, and likely breeding programs.My opponent should concede this debate. I see no reason why America can't open a small to moderate sized Elephant league within our nation. There is no need to draw on this debate any longer.
