School kill creativity in our children and cause them to be as dull as a Sheep!!

Burden of Proof: ProPro makes the assumption that all schools are equal. I won't deny that some school some where may kill creativity because there are so many schools in the world but to say all school's kill creativity in children is just false. Pro did not site one source to back up his claims. "The common school with black board or white, restriction heavy books to carry, loads of repetitive homework, silence! stuck to your desk, groups of 40s and more, sitting in a classroom with one elderly person dictating to them what they should learn no matter how boring it gets, children keep staring outside the window if they are sitting near one, or playing with their pen and paper drawing funny monsters."This is a false stereotype of schools."Then they are told to mug up some history or something irrelevant to life like what some guy said once upon the time, and they are dictated to how much they can remember."How can we learn from our mistakes if we don't know history. History is very important as it helps us make better decisions for the present and future."Then they are threatened to finish their homework OR punishment, they have to even take that boredom with them home."Just because something is boring doesn't mean it kills creativity. Sometimes to fully understand a topic people need extra time that cannot be provided by the school. Also, boring is subjective. To one person it could be boring, to others it could be extremely interesting."Tied for approx an hour to a chair being subjected to listen to crap by some teacher who cannot read their face expression saying We are getting bored."What Pro calls crap could be considered valuable information to others. "No music dancing, art or games, No fun, but just authority and punishment, No creativity just listen and do as said."Most U.S. schools offer music and art as an elective class. [1]"We are told that study to get a job in future study and become a sheep to run after that carrot."Schools cannot force you to get a job. They can only encourage it and try to help give you the tools necessary to start your own business or be successfully employed. What is wrong with working for what you get? "A research done on young children shows that children before school or early school were very creative and consequently lost their creativity as they continued school."Pro provided no evidence to support this claim; therefore, this information is invalid."Amazingly most of the worlds great people were deemed academically weak, and did not like school."Pro provided no evidence to support this claim; therefore, this information is invalid."School that teach idealism and the no 1....or every one should be a doctor or an engineer!! or who is the first and who is the best."This is false."I think all these schools should be abolished and those teached retired, maybe do something else but not teaching, since they have thought this dull way for so long that its nearly impossible to believe in new education."Education is constantly changing.

freedom of speech ends in school

Thank you for providing that source. However, unfortunately, it does not prove anything. Voters, and me included, still do not know what really happened during her graduation, or if you are making it up. Like I said, she could have said something very offensive, prompting the school to censor her words. And as you say, that is perfectly fine. Like all rights, the freedom of speech can be taken away if it harms or offends others. That doesn't mean that the freedom of speech ends in school, though, however. It still exists in school, but it can be taken away if it harms your surroundings. Unfortunately, this is the last round, and Pro has not responded to this crucial argument of mine. Rights can be taken away, only if by practicing those rights, one harms or offends their surroundings However, that doesn't mean that those rights don't exist anymore. It still exists in school, it is just taken away from one student because he/she is violating the school code. Pro even agrees that schools have the right to censor. My work here is done.
freedom of speech ends in school

First, let's see how rights work. The freedom of speech is a basic human right. However, like all rights, this right can be taken away, if you abuse it or if it harms others. For example, another basic right is the freedom to move and live within a country without restraint (article 13, 1). http://www.un.org... However, this right is taken away when you get arrested. As a result, any right, except for survival rights (i. e. eating, shelter, etc. ) can be taken away if you abuse or harm others with int. Therefore, if someone says something that harms someone or offends others, the freedom of speech can be taken away and you can be censored. And that's perfectly okay. Secondly, please, Pro, provide a source to back up that claim. However, I noticed that you said: "a girl that attended a massachusets school was censored for saying her beliefs as too why she was able to graduate"There really isn't enough information here. As you say, the school has a right to censor what we say if it is distracting or harmful to others. And you said it was fine. The girl who was censored was obviously censored for a reason. Perhaps her beliefs consisted of Nazism, or abortion, and the school was a jewish or catholic school. This would be harmful to students and families. And as you said, it is okay for the school to censor these types of things. Therefore, I don't see a problem with that censorship. You also said that "mostrecently i got suspended for telling the teacher how i felt i explained to him that it wasnt his job to tell me who i hang out with ". Again, schools don't just randomly suspend people. There was obviously a reason to your suspension. Perhaps you got mad at the teacher and swore at him or said something offensive? Then you would have been suspended justly. Therefore. .. .. .. .. .. .. The freedom of speech does not end in school. You still have freedom of speech in school. However, like all rights, it can be taken away if you harm others or abuse it. Therefore, I have fulfilled my BOP, however Pro has not. Therefore I have won this debate.
freedom of speech ends in school

even though The School Has A right to censor What we say if it is distracting or harmful to others then thats fine but i was doing research and i found out that during a highschool graduation a girl that attended a massachusets school was censored for saying her beliefs as too why she was able to graduate, mostrecently i got suspended for telling the teacher how i felt i explained to him that it wasnt his job to tell me who i hang out with
freedom of speech ends in school

I assume this debate is centered around the schools in America. Let me first set some definitions:freedom of speech: The right to express any opinions without censorship or restraint. . http://www.google.ca...ends: A final part of something, esp. a period of time, an activity, or a story. . http://www.google.ca...Burden of Proof:As Pro, Pro must prove that the right to free speech ends in school. As Con, I must prove that the right to free speech does not end in school, in fact, the freedom to speech continues after school and still exists in school and outside school while you are in school. Therefore, if I can provide a case where free speech still exists in any school, preschool, elementary, secondary, or post secondary, then I have won this debate. Please comment or PM me if you disagree with any of the above claims that I have set this debate to. Otherwise, I look forward to your arguments. To you, Pro.
Abortion

Now I would like to start off with a few main points 1) Abortion is a form of murder. Abortion prevents a baby from having the right to live. What did the baby do to deserve to die? Just because they may be born with a disability of some sort is no reason to kill them. When you are conceived, the mother doesn't say "The fetus kicked", they say "The baby kicked". Although the baby cannot depend on itself to sustain life, it has every right to live. When the baby is in the womb, it is about to be born, to being its life. Killing a baby is wrong because it did nothing to deserve to die. Whether it will have problems in life or not are no reasons to prevent it from enjoying the value of life. Life is one of the greatest gifts of all, and that precious gift us not to be wasted. 2) Abortion is against the Hippocratic Oath The Hippocratic Oath is what doctors take when they are being initiated. In one part of it, the oath states: "I shall not prescribe deadly medicine. " The medicine that is prescribed during an abortion kills the baby, and is responsible for the death of the baby. If doctors are not allowed to prescribe deadly medicine, then abortion should be illegal. 3) Abortion causes risk of loss of fertility and other health risks Women can receive infections from abortions from chemical substances inside of the medication. In some cases, the mother dies after having an abortion. Therefore, it not only kills the baby, but also increases the risk of the woman dying. In other instances, women have received long term infections and other symptoms including nausea, vomiting, bleeding, and fevers. Women can also suffer from even longer psychological problems after having an abortion. With this, abortions are dangerous for the baby and for the mother in cases of health. 4) Rather than having an abortion, you can put the child up for adoptions. There are thousands of couples across the country (and world) that are unable to have children of their own. Many are waiting 5-10 years to adopt a child, and are loving and willing to raise a child. By satisfying your own desires, you will also satisfy those of the adopting couple who have always wanted a child. 5) The potential contributions to society that a child might make are eliminated What would happen if Abe Lincoln, George Washington, or MLK's mothers had abortions? America would be under British rule, slavery would be legal, and African Americans would not have their Civil Rights. What if a baby that was aborted could have cured cancer. More lives would be saved by a cure for cancer, many more. 6) Abortion discards legal rights of the unborn All are entitled to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. When you have an abortion, that breaks the first right of those: life. If all have the right to life, then abortions can be considered against the laws. I rest my case.
PC Gaming is better then Console Gaming.

I'm sorry to hear that, good luck and I hope you get better soon. Thank you to my opponent for responding. Rebuttal to Point #1: In a debate, one must always make themselves clear, as to what they are trying to say. Nothing is "obvious". My opponent mentioned this in their argument, and I would like to apologise for not responding correctly, but I would just like to remind them. What I meant by, "A console already has pre-decided specs, and the developers know what to aim for, when developing the game. A console will run any console games comfortably." is that PC video game developers have large audiences with a large variety of different specs, and unless they make the video games a low-end game (specs wise), they will always leave out a portion of the community. The people left out either cannot play, or have to upgrade or buy a new PC. However, console game developers have a specific set of criterion (specs) for them to aim for, and everyone that has the console can play the game, without any special upgrades. Rebuttal to Point #2 There are no facts to this point. My opponent simply wrote down his or her opinion, and did not say how my point did not meet the topic of "PC Gaming is better then Console Gaming". Therefore I will not respond, as my opponent simply tried to offend me in a very unprofessional manner. Rebuttal to Point #3 Another unprofessional and immature attempt to argue about me, rather than the topic at hand. I understand that there are 370,000 active players, but does that matter to the argument? I tried to state that CS:GO is a complicated game, and a very fun, interesting and intricate game, but it takes a lot more time and dedication to be good at, compared to CoD. CoD is much more relaxed and simple, and this is why it would appeal to a larger majority of the gaming community, because of the lower skill ceiling. PC games in general, as my opponent mentioned, usually takes much more precision and skill to master, and not everyone wants that. The console fills in that gap for being much more casual and less hardcore. Rebuttal to Point #4 Not everyone needs the streams, the music, the YouTube videos because most of them have friends or family around to interact and play with. A PC, as I mentioned, if playing multiplayer, requires more than one machine, discouraging side-by-side gameplay, as desktops are not portable. A controller is, though. Rebutting your point that rebutted my point. :) You can't plug in a mouse and keyboard into a desktop and have multiplayer. Yes, I understand that you can plug in the Xbox controllers into a PC, but that negates your whole argument about the "precision and skill" the PC has over the console. Also, the average computer part (computer hardware) lasts about a year until a new, better part comes along and outdates the previous one. And, I understand a PC has beautiful graphics, but I keep saying this over and over, not everyone wants/needs those specs. I would like to respectfully ask my opponent to not generalise as much in future debates. Good luck with your health. Enjoyed the debate.
PC Gaming is better then Console Gaming.

PC Gaming is far superior to Console Gaming and here are the reasons why: 1. Easily change the internals to make them better, for one example, the graphics card. By changing/upgrading a graphics card it greatly can increases the performance and experience of gaming. You can do this with all parts on PC's, (GPU, CPU, PSU, Memory, Storage) on the other hand, consoles do not let you change the parts and make you keep the terrible internal components that come standard in the consoles. 2. More freedom. While PC Gaming you don't have to be limited to playing normal game and chatting with a limited amount of friends in a party/chat. First of all, on PC you can mod games. Yes, yes you can mod games on console but it takes much longer, and you can't take it as far as you can on the PC. Secondly, you have much more freedom chatting with friends, either with voice or text. By this I mean on PC you are not limited to how many people you can talk too, by using programs such as teamspeak and discord. Lastly, You are not limited to be in the game... If you want you can always tab out of the game, turn on music, youtube videos, twitch streams, anything you want. You have the whole internet at your fingers meanwhile on consoles you don't. 3. More skill based. This is simple, gaming on the PC is way more skill based then on console for one simple reason. Mouse and keyboard gives you much more precision than using a controller. For one example, First Person Shooter Games, on PC you get to aim exactly where you want with the mouse rather than using the joysticks on the console controllers. (The perfect example is CoD, the biggest FPS game on console people don't aim for the head or upper chest, they aim for the general area of the body of the enemy, meanwhile, CSGO on PC you aim for the exact body parts, like the head, with precise accuracy, showing how good you are.) This is why eSports are played using computers and the keyboard/mouse combination. 4. Steam, the best gaming platform ever created. First of all, if you don't know what Steam is, it is a platform where you can buy/download games, play with friends, chat with friends, and do so much more that it is all a Gamer will ever want. With Steam, you can get games within minutes by just sitting in your chair, you don't have to go out to Gamestop and buy the game you just click two button, hit download and you're done! It is the quickest way to get games yet. Also, chatting and playing with friends is made 1000x easier with Steam. You can quickly join games, play with friends, chat with friends way quicker than you can with a console. Finally, you can download user created items for games, mods, and play with them! No way can you do this on console. That is why PC is much better than Console! Good luck to my opponent.
Television is a bad influence for young children

without further more wait , Off to debate! definitions: influence-1. the capacity or power of persons or things to be a compelling force on or produce effects on the actions, behavior, opinions, etc. , of others: He used family influence to get the contract. debate: now considering I am the pro stance on this debate I will be agreeing with the fact that television can be a bad influence on young children. first of all you said it yourself "Some people think some shows are inappropriate " meaning as it could be ( has the possibility to be) a bad influence on the children. given kids are sneaky at times they will get a hold of a television remote and do what they please, meaning they could easily come across shows with explicit content leaving what every they find can be a possible bad influence you say "but that is why children have guardians and parents to make sure what they're watching is ok" now I have two problems with this statement 1. who says the guardian has proper judgment in this scenario them self in the first place because I am sure there are some cases where a parent can have perverted judgment them self leading to the television guidance to be infective for they would let there children watch what ever they want freely leaving the possibility of television being a bad influence for young children. 2. there is the possibility that a parent might not always being around as I explained what would happen in that scenario "PG , M , M 15+ , MA 15 + R 18 + and many more. Those classification details can help people to enjoy what they watch and not watch things that are inappropriate. " I agree that yes, if used properly T. V. can be Ok for younger children but if easily abused it can have the wrong influence on young children making the pro stance for this topic completely true and there may be some people thinking well Mastajake you are saying 'it CAN be a bad influence on younger children' but if it CAN then it IS in certain situations, making every thing I said completely legitimate. I feel my debate is adequate, I now wait for my opponents rebuttal, ~Mastajake
Television is a bad influence for young children

I do not think television is a bad influence for younger children. T.V offers a whole range of programmes that as people and human beings we can enjoy. Some people think some shows are inappropriate but that is why children have guardians and parents to make sure what they're watching is ok. T.V shows and movies ALL have ratings - G, PG , M , M 15+ , MA 15 + R 18 + and many more. Those classification details can help people to enjoy what they watch and not watch things that are inappropriate.
learning is stupid, as there can be no learning without stupid

"without intelligence there can be no stupidity, like 2 sides of a coin"Of course Stupidity can exist without intelligence, ever heard of Congress?"and without beings intelligence and stupidity cant exist, so beings are intelligent and stupid, the more intelligent the more mistakes made, the more stupid"if intelligence and stupid are opposites like M Night Shyamalan and good movies, then they naturally cant mean the same thing at the same time correct?"can the most intelligent man not make mistakes?"Is he a jew?"im not discussing abortion, that is stupid, and i dont have time to be stupid"Jew
learning is stupid, as there can be no learning without stupid

"learning is stupid because, stupid is learning,"Accepted"the educated student dosnt need to learn, he is already educated by stupid"Naturally"you can not learn without making mistakes, even if your teacher is a man, stupidity is still how you learn"Stop stating the obvious and get on with it already"so in a way im saying, if you do it right the first time you do it, you havnt learned anything"haven't* "even for the most intelligent man in the World that has achieved complete intelligence of everything, has made the most mistakes, so he must be the most stupid"Youre making a lot of sense with your arguments, but I have to disagree since im against abortion. The reason why stupid isnt stupid and why learning isnt stupid is because its stupid's fault that stupid is too stupid to see how stupid stupid is being, stupid. It's stupid to think that stupid is stupid since stupid is stupid for being stupid, thats just stupid, stupid. Stupid is stupid because stupid is naturally stupid by its own stupid fault, if stupid wasnt stupid for being so stupid, then it wouldnt be stupid for stupid to be stupid at its own stupidity of being completely, utterly, stupid..... Why should stupid be called stupid just for being so stupid about being stupid while stupidly denying that stupid cant help how stupitly stupid it really is to be so goddamn stupid? Thats just stupid. LEARNING on the other hand cant be stupid because if learning was stupid and stupid was learning, than stupid would have learned how to not stupidly not know how stupid it really is by being so stupid all the time. if learnign cant be stupid since stupid is stupid to being stupid, then you also have to concede that there CAN be learning without stupid because stupid is too stupid to stupidly see its own stupidity regarding how stupid that stupid really is...... ....... Stupid.
learning is stupid, as there can be no learning without stupid

learning is stupid because, stupid is learning, the educated student dosnt need to learn, he is already educated by stupid you can not learn without making mistakes, even if your teacher is a man, stupidity is still how you learn so in a way im saying, if you do it right the first time you do it, you havnt learned anything even for the most intelligent man in the World that has achieved complete intelligence of everything, has made the most mistakes, so he must be the most stupid
