Resolved: Abortion should be legal.............................................. On DDO

1) Right to choose > Right to life"Given that the audience also made equal investments of time to participate to make critical judgments and to vote, choice to terminate a debate should not be made exclusive to the debaters alone"The audience most certainly does NOT make equal investments to judge and vote on a debate that debaters spend making the arguments, because 90% of the time voters already know which side they are going to vote for before they even read the arguments..... Besides, an aborted debate wouldnt even reach voting period which means that the audience literally wouldnt have anything to read over or vote on once the debate is terminated because people only look at debates when they enter the voting period, not round by round. 2) Unable to care for the debate"Adoption is a better suited approach than termination"Debates up for adoption/acceptance is a fate worse then death for debates that otherwise would have been aborted because the system is already overloaded! If you go over to debates still in the challenge period, you will always find anywhere between 15 to 25, maybe even more, debates still unadopted. Debates that go up for adoption will be neglected and probably mistreated which is far worse then never existing in the first place and going straight to debate heaven. 3) Debates conceived from someone being raped...... by debate challenges"In the proponent’s legal system, it is better to be a rapist since at least it is a granted a choice, undergo due process and is given his day in court"There arent courts or due process in DDO, and there hasnt been since the Second Ima revolution of 2011.... People can send/rape people debate challenges at will no matter what laws there are against it..... The best thing to do though is let the victim have a chance to abort an unwanted debate if one happens to be raped (by debate challenges) and is illegitimate. 4) Debates pose a serious health risk................... To one's win record"Terminating the debate terminates the audience’s engagement, and the serious health risk rightfully is towards the participation of the debate community in general."Oh thats just horse sh*t.... DDO isnt a 'community' and theres a reason why the slogan of DDO is "Everyone gets along, except usually". Also people dont follow debates as they progress (through pregnancy) people only care about the final product of the debate when it is born (into the voting period). This claim that people participate in debates when they are still in the womb (of the debating period) is both idiotic and demonstrates a severe lack of understanding in how the profile works. 5) Better off on the taxpayers ('taxpayers ' is slang for 'forum posters')" Those who frequently participate debates only for them to continually leave them should be flagged so that future participants will be more discerning in engaging them."And we will, but that doesnt have sh*t to do with the main point....========================================================================================Con drops numerous arguments and dodges several of them with the outlandish claim that debates shouldnt be aborted and flushed down the toilet by claiming that doing so would harm 'the audience' who is following the debate.POPPYCOCK I SAYTheres a reason why DDO is always at war with itself, why there is a crippling shortage of votes, and why the challenge section is just backlogged with unadopted debates.... Because the 'audience' doesnt care about debates or are as invested in them as con claims they are! Therefore his only counter argument is invalid and people should be able to have an abortion......... On DDO
