Resolved: Cats rule the world.

Thank you Staff Sergeant Allan for your arguments. I spent round 2, submitting evidence as to why humans still rule the world. I will use this round to counter Staff Sergeant Allan’s initial argument, as well as present further proof of humans domination over cats.1. The Poop Argument Just does not smell right.Staff Sergeant Allan, argued in part “Cats rule the world by the cat poop parasite, or scientifically known as Toxoplasma gondii. This parasite is formed by an infection in the cat's intestines and then it makes it's way into the cats poop". On the comment section of this debate, “Natoast” said “I agree that the glorious toxoplasmosises rule the world, this is obvious. But cats are just their lowly servants. Natoast makes an excellent point, saying cats rule the world for having formed a parasite, is like sying alcoholics rule the alcohol industry for having bad livers.2. Allan is Correct! We domesticated the cat, not the other way around.Staff Sergeant Allan in his argument said "It is just the fact that we have domesticated the house cat that we take care of them so much other wise you would have an animal like the badger running around and still being able to tend for itself".Staff Sergeant Allan in this argument is acknowledging that humans have in fact domesticated the house cat. If cats ruled the world, they would have domesticated us. If cats ruled the world then cats would sometimes cage us, they would decide when we go outside, they would put out boxes for us to poop in, and they would give us balls of string for us to entertain ourselves. Even large cats are under our control, humans use lion and leopard skins to make coats and purses. We cage them in zoos, and put them in circuses, for our own amusement. We make movies about lions, “The Lion King”. Large cats can argue they rule the World when “The Human King” opens in theaters around the Country.3. Humans dominate on net kills.Staff Sergeant Allan has argued that cats kill humans “Here's a list of big cats: tiger, lion, lion, leopard, sabber tooth tiger, etc... http://www.thefreedictionary.com....... So lets look at some death tolls now. Big cats kill a total of 20 people and mall over 246 people in the US and now lets multiply that by other nations in the world. http://bigcatrescue.org...... if there are 196 countries and multiply that by these numbers and we get 3,920 deaths and 48,216 maulings!"Staff Sergeant Allan is correct, when you include big cats there are documented kills. However even if we give Staff Sergeant Allan his full estimate of 3,920 big cat kills, add in some for disease (Staff Sergeant Allan never provided a firm number), throw in a handful of freak cat kills (I once saw on “Six Feet Under” episode where a cat knocked a radio into a bathtub electrocuting the woman taking a bath). Total all these cat kills together, it still pales in comparison to the number of cats, humans take down. Consider the following.1. The 4 million cats, killed, cooked, and eaten in Asia each year, as referenced in the second round.2. The 2.5 million cats that are euthanized by humans each year, as referenced in the second round.Add to those 6.5 millionCats that end up as road kill, as a result of humans driving estimated at 839,00 a year,According to animalpeoplenews.org, “That was the earliest comprehensive count of roadkill cats known to ANIMAL PEOPLE. Since many studies indicate that both the U.S. pet cat and feral cat populations tend to mirror human population distribution, and Baltimore lies close to the climatic midpoint for the U.S. as a whole, the Baltimore ratio of one roadkill cat per 270 residents can be projected to the nation with reasonable hope of accuracy. The U.S. had 226 million residents according to the 1980 census, and thus probably had about 839,000 roadkill cats.” Adding all these numbers up comes to over 7.3 million deaths a year. Given these numbers, with all due respect, Staff Sergeant Allans’ argument does not have 4 legs to stand on.Back to Staff Sergeant Allan, for closing arguments.
