The Electoral College Is A Terrible System/Should Be Removed

**The Electoral College is essentially a middle finger to democracy ** The Electoral College isn't about Democracy. It's about defending the descendents of the forfathers. It is about their liberty. It is about protecting the Republic. 1)The United States is not a "Democracy". "The"United States of America"(USA), commonly known as the"United States"(U.S.) or"America, is a"federal republic"composed of 50"states, a"federal district, five major"self-governing territories, and"various possessions." https://en.m.wikipedia.org... 2)The word "Democracy" is mentioned nowhere in the Constitution. "Many will be shocked to learn that the word "democracy" was neither used in the Declaration of Independence nor in the Constitution. Indeed, the Founding Fathers were anxious and fearful of allowing any form of tyranny, including the tyranny of the majority." https://www.cato.org... **It completely ignores the peoples true wishes quite frequently** 2016 Electoral map by county (Donald Trump winner in red)- http://i0.wp.com... Electoral map 2008 by county (Obama winner in blue)- https://upload.wikimedia.org... **The biggest complaint about a democratic vote is the fear that politicians would just go to big cities, but this is not true.** Sure it is. Democrats get their votes in the big cities. **Going past the top 6 most populated cities would already be in the 100,000s. In a democratic vote, campaigning would be forced to be more broad and open rather than focusing on key states to win.** Incoherent ramblings. **Even if you aimed for the 5 largest states by population, and got 100% of their vote, you would still fail to to win the election...** Good. Importing migrants for political power won't help the Democrat Party. Imagine if you were Somalion, living in Somalia, and 40 million Russians moved into Somalia. You, as a 20th generation Somalian still have the right to rule your country.
The Electoral College Is A Terrible System/Should Be Removed

The Electoral College is essentially a middle finger to democracy - It completely ignores the peoples true wishes quite frequently, even if the candidate who won the electoral college also won the popular vote. There have been quite a few elections where the winner had a close race against the loser, for example Garfield v. Hancock where he won 214 electoral votes compared to 155 electoral votes despite a 7,000 voter difference, Nixon v. Kennedy where Kennedy was just over 100,000 votes ahead of Nixon but still had 303 electoral votes to Nixon's 219, and Nixon v. Humphrey, where Nixon won by 515,000 votes, which is the population of Wyoming almost, but won 301 electoral votes compared to Humphrey's 191. Then there are the elections where the winner of the election by popular vote still loses, and this is fresh in our minds still with Trump v. Hillary and Gore v. Bush almost 20 years ago. In fact, the winner could have more than 70% of the nation vote against them and still win if they win California, Texas, New York, Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and a few more states. The Electoral College is also plagued by Gerrymandering, which can split up a voter base to be spread thin and have a concentrated population that will always vote a certain way dictate where that district goes. The biggest complaint about a democratic vote is the fear that politicians would just go to big cities, but this is not true. Going past the top 6 most populated cities would already be in the 100,000s. In a democratic vote, campaigning would be forced to be more broad and open rather than focusing on key states to win. Even if you aimed for the 5 largest states by population, and got 100% of their vote, you would still fail to to win the election, and even then this is impossible, all humans will vote differently, and while there are cases where candidates win large portions of a state, there has been no event where anyone won 100% of a state's Population excluding the potential of the election of 1820 and the Washington elections with the few states that had popular vote.
Home cooked meals or covienet meals

Convenient are speed on the go but not better in taste. When you make a home cook meal you can put your own ingredints & it's cheaper in prices in the long run . Some convenient meals cost about 2.30 which if you buy 5 it would be 1.40 total & after you're finished you're always gonnna want more plus they're more unhealthy for a person. A home cooked meal when you but the meat for 3:35 you have at least enough meat to prepare for at least 6 burgers 7 some of them have hamburgers cut out for you. Convenient meals are good on the go but when you finish it when you're gone you end going somewhere else to buy it. If you make a home cooked meal correctly You can also have it the & is more likely to fill you up because convenient are usually smaller in most cases & when you have some home cooked meals you save your meals & be full for a while & if you're hungry you'll most likely have more meals for a while. Example rice if you put 2 cups of rice it expands & then you'll get full faster & then you can take several of them to go as well & they can be microwave as well. Also you can have more when go home because of this.
The Marvel character Sentinel should be removed from Marvel Vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds

There's not really much for me to say in this concluding round of the debate. My main contention was that Sentinel should be nerfed instead of removed from the game. This will allow those that like using Sentinel to keep using the character, those that hate Sentinel to hate him less, and open more strategy options when using the character. All I have left is to respond to some things in my opponents lastest response. /// Just take a look at what professional gamer Justin Wong said about Sentinel (1). Clearly, if the pros have such gripes about a single character, then that character should probably cease to exist. /// I don't see why. Professional gaming leagues typically have their own rules when it comes to play. For instance the MLG rules for Super Smash Brothers Melee [1]. If Sentinel truly is an unfair element then the leagues should have no problem banning him from play. Plus, that is one person complaining about something he obviously doesn't like. Hardly justification for its removal. ~ /// My source (3) in debate 2 was a list of all popular marvel characters according to marvel (Its at the bottom of the page, titled popular character index). Despite all the mentions of extremely obscure hero's and villains, Sentinel fails to be on the list. This leads me to believe that Sentinel isn't popular (even by Marvels generous standards on who is a popular character). /// A few things about that list: 1.) I can only see the first page of it. When I try to view other pages it just takes me to the top of the page 2.) The list is clearly in alphabetical order, not ranked. For all I know Sentinel is on one of the other pages that I can't view. 3.) Even if Sentinel isn't on that list, so what? That isn't a popularity chart for characters in Marvel vs. Capcom 3. That's a popularity list for all characters in the Marvel comics multiverse. A character's relative popularity there would not be comparable to the character's in-game popularity. This is mainly because the popularity of a character in a fighting game is determined by more than simply liking a character. Other aspects come into play such as speed, power, etc. ~ Sources: [1] http://allisbrawl.com...
The Marvel character Sentinel should be removed from Marvel Vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds

I apologize to Con, I posted the wrong link for Round 3 for source 1. I meant to use this one: http://www.eventhubs.com... Anyway moving on "The evidence that my opponent has put forward of this is ONE combo that can be done with Sentinel. A combo that that can only be performed under a certain set of circumstances (namely pushing your opponent to the far edge of the stage). My opponent also says that this combo is "easy". I implore the readers to watch the video and judge for themselves whether or not this combo is easy. I presume that the narrator discovered this combo on his own and provided the video to demonstrate it. He fails to perform the combo more often than he succeeds, and in the audio you can hear the frantic pushing of buttons. There are at least 27 clicks that I could count. This does not seem "easy" or simple to me as a person who has never played this game." A few things here: 1) If you look at the description of the video on the actual YouTube site you will see a read-out of the combo, the full combo requires 12 inputs. The clicks are incredibility misleading to the true nature of the combo. 2) Even when the combo wasn't successful, Sentinel still managed 400k+ damage, with only 4 hits. No other character with that range and speed can do that. 3) Your right, I can only find ONE combo that does around 800k. All the other PLETHORA of combos generally do 900k to a million damage. 4) Any combo is going to be difficult for somebody who has never played the game. However, these people who never play the game or those who are not that good at MvC3 are not the ones suffering from Sentinel's inclusion in MvC3. It is, in fact players from moderate to professional skill that are generally feeling the wrath of such an over powered character. Just take a look at what professional gamer Justin Wong said about Sentinel (1). Clearly, if the pros have such gripes about a single character, then that character should probably cease to exist. "That is not what your (3) source really says. From what I can tell it's just an alphabetical list of Marvel characters." My source (3) in debate 2 was a list of all popular marvel characters according to marvel (Its at the bottom of the page, titled popular character index). Despite all the mentions of extremely obscure hero's and villains, Sentinel fails to be on the list. This leads me to believe that Sentinel isn't popular (even by Marvels generous standards on who is a popular character). In closing Sentinel is an overpowered character that ruins the game for slightly experienced players and pro players alike. Capcom should stop tinkering with a broken character and simply eject him from the game entirely. I would like to thank my opponent for such an awesome debate and thank the audience for staying with us until the end. http://www.youtube.com... 1-http://twitter.com...
The Marvel character Sentinel should be removed from Marvel Vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds

/// This has already happened, yet Capcom only decreased his health level. If this is the only "nerf" that such an over powered character receives, then he should be removed entirely. /// You can nerf an aspect of the game more than once. Plus, I do not understand the significance of the source listed after this statement. It's just the health comparisons that you posted earlier. There is nothing about nerfing Sentinel. ~ /// My opponent agrees Sentinel is an overpowered character /// False. Nowhere in this debate or otherwise have I stated this. The nerf suggestion is merely an alternative to removal from the game. In fact, other than Sentinel having a long reach I don't feel that there is anything wrong with the character.

"My main contention is that instead of being removed from the game, Sentinel should be nerfed." This has already happened, yet Capcom only decreased his health level. If this is the only "nerf" that such an over powered character receives, then he should be removed entirely. (1) "Most of my opponent's points against Sentinel point towards the character being overpowered. Not that he should be removed." Two things here: 1) My opponent agrees Sentinel is an overpowered character 2) My argument is that he should be removed because he is overpowered. "Are the attacks too fast for a character of its size? Make its attacks slower. Are his attacks too powerful in a way that unbalances the game? Make his attacks less powerful." I would normally agree here however with the inclusion of the X-factor ability, no matter how much his attacks are reduced, a level 3 X-factored Sentinel will still have ridiculous attack power and speed. (2) Sentinel isn't a popular character to begin with (3); Capcom should remove him and make Marvel vs Capcom 3 more balanced. (1) http://wiki.shoryuken.com... (2) http://wiki.shoryuken.com...

The Marvel character Sentinel should be removed from Marvel Vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds

Nerf - a change to a game that reduces the desirability or effectiveness of a particular game element. [1] My main contention is that instead of being removed from the game, Sentinel should be nerfed. Most of my opponent's points against Sentinel point towards the character being overpowered. Not that he should be removed. Are the attacks too fast for a character of its size? Make its attacks slower. Are his attacks too powerful in a way that unbalances the game? Make his attacks less powerful. Nerfing is preferable to removal of elements of video games because instead of simply getting rid of something perceived to be unfair, it takes said unfair element and balances it. This allows for those who enjoy using the element to still use it while everyone else gets to play a game where they aren't dominated whenever they play against one character.

The Marvel character Sentinel should be removed from Marvel Vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds

Sentinel is an unfair and cheap character and because of this, should be removed from Marvel vs Capcom 3. Reason 1: Sentinel's launcher attack is unfair. Not only is it an armored attack (i.e it will take more than one hit to stop the attack)(1), Sentinel's launcher has enormous range (2). Sentinel's launcher attack also is incredibly fast and this speed makes it impossible for other characters to close the distance and launch an offense. Having such an over powered launcher can easily make any fight one sided, especially considering the massive damage that can be done when an opponent is hit by one. Keeping a character in the MvC3 game with such an over powered launcher prevents the game from being a based on player skill, an idea that the MvC franchise tends to emphasis Reason 2: Sentinel's Combos misses the skill/damage ratio It MvC3, if a player wants to do a massive damage in a combo, they must have a certain amount of skill to execute the combo. My first video shows that combos preformed by Ryu. Notice that in these combos, Ryu generally did an average of 550k damage per combo unless he used X-factor or 3+ hyper bars.http://www.youtube.com... However, in the case of Sentinel, combos can be pulled off using less inputs, less hyper moves, and no X-factor and can easily achieve 890k damage per combo. That is high enough to one-shot 12 characters.(3) These Sentinel combos are way less demanding then the combos of Ryu, yet, they do way more damage. Combine this cheap combo-ing power with the insane power bonus of the X-factor and you have a character that is flat out unfair. For these reasons I feel that Sentinel should be removed for MvC3. I would like to thank my opponent for this debate and wish him good luck. http://www.youtube.com... (1) http://wiki.shoryuken.com... (2)http://im.tech2.in.com... (3) http://wiki.shoryuken.com...
Semi Auto Handguns are more dangerous than AR15s

Whilst a rifle is almost impossible to conceal, it has a larger capacity, meaning less needed to reload. You can keep shooting without worrying about counterattacking, and plus, its reload is probably faster than a semi. Plus, a pistol has worse accuracy, and, at close up, it won't matter if you are shot in the head with a pistol or an assault rifle. A rifle has much more stability, while a pistol has a recoil. An inexperienced shooter has a higher chance to miss with a pistol than with an assault rifle.
Semi Auto Handguns are more dangerous than AR15s

With all of the talk about banning AR15s to stop school shootings, I argue that semi automatic handguns are more dangerous than AR15s in this matter. Semiautomatic handguns are easier to conceal, fire at the same rate as an AR15, and have hollowpoint rounds that maximize damage on impact. AR15s are long range rifles that are nearly impossible to conceal and are not meant for close range targets.
minus is impossible.. destruction

i see, so you would mean if soda = 1 then soda minus soda would just mean taking the soda out of existence which is impossible and that taking a bit of it away is still just separation and not destruction, in which case you may be right. however destruction is not limited to merely erasing its existence ( subtracting soda from reality). if the soda were to be sucked into a black hole it would compress and become one with the singularity, if i were to send the soda 10 years into the future, it would cease to exist in the present and for the next 10 years. if i were to teleport it into a parallel dimension and switch its mass with equal mass from this other universe the soda would cease to exist in our universe and so = 0. the concept of destruction isn't limited to destroying something to nothing.
Islam is a religion of peace rather than the stereotypical Islam represented by the terrorists

At the end of your latest speech you implored me to study the Quran. So I have. I have a copy of the Quran sitting right next to me. And it's interesting for me to find this gem:Quran (2:191-193) - "And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out."I give you proof from the Quran that Allah commands Muslims to execute those who don't believe in him. This is undeniable; this is true in other religions as well. One must realize that these religions were conceived in a time where murder and war were capricious and numerous compared to today's civilization. I now ask my opponent:If an American soldier kills a POW, does that mean he is not an American the moment he pulls the trigger? No. We arrest him, and we put him on trial under AMERICAN justice as an AMERICAN citizen for disobeying AMERICAN laws. How are Islamic jihadists different? Is it that fact that they're too busy killing each other (yes, in Yemen, Muslim shiites are massacring Muslim suunis by the dozens)?I now turn to my audience.My opponent is irrational. Given the day and time, I could easily argue for the other side. To debate, you need to understand your enemy. He refuses to see the other side of this coin. He refutes my arguments with flimsy, self-assured statements saying "Muslims don't kill other Muslims" and "ISIL isn't Muslim". He has no accountability, and at this point, I have to wonder if his arguments are to half-heartedly convince us, or rather to comfort himself. In fact, his whole case revolves around those two points. It is also true that I have shown sufficent evidence counteracting those claims. I give you five reasons why I have dominated this debate. 1) Shiites and suunis, both Muslim groups, have been locked in a decades old fight against each other, and it is not uncommon to see them killing each other. Islam is one of the only religions that have Muslim groups kill each other for believing in certain forms of Islam.2) ISIL is Muslim, like it or not. They are the purest form of Islamic fighters ever to live, and my opponent has yet to make rebuttals to that. 3) My opponent refuses to clash my arguments. All he does is extend his own, while I have fought on both sides of this debate.4) My opponent refuses to come out of religious context. He is quick to call me ignorant while his arguments are a hodgepodge of religious zeal.5) My arguments were supported with quotes from the Quran that showed Allah's supposed teachings. I proved Muslims DO kill each other, and is one of the only religions that kill each other for their beliefs (seriously, do you see Catholics beat up Christians today?)For these reasons, I believe the CON is winning this debate.Thank you.
