Haiku Battle - Personal Insults

He cannot match my Talent in flow and diction; His words rest in peace. He put up a fight, But misery and failure Were his broad results. Verse carries no stench, Nor does it rise from my keys, He's deeply confused. His bland metaphors Bore me and force me to puke On his words and schemes. Ignore my insults, And I have still won, you see, From C's ghastly rhymes.
Haiku Battle - Personal Insults

I had one goal here, To be part of the top ten, Which I've accomplished. I am man enough, To admit my faults, weakness, I have matured well. A man quite confused, He creates his haiku sh! t, With laxative help. Too constipated, He's backed up, dry, and shaking, Just seeing my flow. His sh! t flows here, there, From his brain, to this battle, Shouldn't try, but quit.
Haiku Battle - Personal Insults

1. Preys on the weakest, Hoping to boost his percent; Takes cheap shots at noobs. 2. Admits his failure, Publicly apologized; He's bad at debate. 3. Paradoxed soul Thnks he's both dead and alive; His haiku is dead. 4. The undead poet Has dead people for his friends; Franklin would be shocked. 5. The dead man gravely Admits his true worthlessness; He's a sorry man. 1. . http://www.debate.org... 2. . http://www.debate.org... 3.

Haiku Battle - Personal Insults

He's in haiku hell, Can't escape, not through the mind, Which he endeavors. [1] He stresses logic, But fails at displaying it, Wants right, but is wrong. [2] He goes either way, Just plays with words, not people, Can't get the action. [3] Much too arrogant, Thinks he can win with cute twists, Knows not of what comes. [4] Insecure at heart, Feels that reason and God match, Needs false hope to live. [5] References: [1] "The mind is its own place, and can make a heaven of hell; a hell of heaven. .. " [2] "I believe that logic is sufficient, without resorting to abuse of the reasoner. And I believe that correct logic, regardless of the subject or the real-life verity of the conclusion, is a beautiful thing. " [3] "either side" ; "playing with words. " [4] "I enjoy twisting other people's words. " [5] "I believe in one God, as defined in the Bible by orthodox Christianity. I affirm the Nicene Creed. " Thank you.
rap battle

Dearly Departed, This is one battle you shouldn’t have started. Hearing you rap is like keeping my mouth open after somebody farted. Your better half ran down yo mommas back, that’s why you’re retarded. I’m not making fun of your gay issues or your poverty, for real. I’m a little disgusted that you’d swallow a load, just for the hot meal. I won’t address all the crap you said. It’s all just a gimmick. Go crawl back in the dumpster behind the abortion clinic. Now, you said some serious stuff about my wife. That’s a really dirty move and you deserve a rusty knife. I’ll let this one slide, bro. After all,.. What ‘chu know about having a vagina in your life? You said I still play pokemon, but that’s what you do fun. I play poke-a-female, while you treat dick like Pringles. Bet you can’t have just one. You talk a big game but I’m the weatherman. I predict a storm, cause you just messed with a veteran,I dropped Bombs before the conflict in Lebanon. There’s no regimen that can mess with me, son. I’m simply better than, This little female who’s all out of adrenaline. Doping like Armstrong but you used estrogen.Someone help this fool up, the Ref already counted to ten.I gotta go. I'll catch you later man. (Drops mic in a dramatic gangsta fashion) ** Thanks for the battle. This was quite entertaining. **

rap battle

You’re right, my profile has the theme of a carnivore. I’d rather eat noobs than get my food at the Grocery store. Let’s focus on your profile more. Likes Men and Women? I guess he wants to explore more than his ol’ ladies front door. Let’s talk about your Pic. What are you wearing bro? Looks like a blow out sale from the T-shirt stand inside the Texaco. It’s ok though, I guess some of us buy our threads at the Dollar Depot. “Ya’ll take food stamps? I really hope so!” I know we ain’t supposed to cuss, yet you called me a “hoe”. You know that’s a gardening tool and not what your mom does to feed you, right bro? And what ‘cha talking about the North Pole for? Is that the same pole that made your back door sore? You know, when you let another dude explore your “earth’s core” ‘cause you decided you didn’t like women no more? So you’re an extra terrestrial. I’m not sure I’d brag about that extra testicle. But it’s your world man. Dress in your rainbow spandex and have your gay festival. I don’t know what you mean by “spitting a bar”. Is that when you refuse to swallow after blowin’ a dude in his car? You might be taking this gay thing too far. Not that there really is a limit. It only takes one dick to be gay, which makes you gay twelve times every damn minute. Let me stop before I just win it. Go get a napkin and wipe that stuff off your chin kid.

Should all terrorists be deported? (either to their country of origin or another country)

The fact is that by deporting them the country's intel services will be able to trace him to wherever they go. Upon adding to this facial recognition services used by one's country is good enough to recognise the terrorist himself. By deporting the said terrorist one's country may be safe knowing that the terrorist will probably never dare set foot in the said country again. Did you however know that most terrorist acts are perpetrated by that same country's citizen? The reason to this is that they might be insane, idealogical purposes or the feeling of discrimination,segregation, and most of all the urge to do something about what someone believes in regardless of the fact that it's wrong.
Should all terrorists be deported? (either to their country of origin or another country)

I think that all terrorists should NOT be deported for the fact that we will no longer know of their location and what they are planning to do next if they were released into another country. By not deporting terrorists and instead keeping them within a prison we can limit their contact with other potential suspects and reduce the chances of another terror attack happening if they were unable to communicate and plan another attack with the assistance of others. (This debate is going to be used as part of an extended project so if possible could you include websites that you find useful on this topic as this would help me greatly in my work. Many thanks)
Impeding a Rising China

The actual resolution (too long for topic box): The United States should enhance its policy of 'hedging' in East Asia as a means to impede Chinese soft and hard power projection. DefinitionsEnhance: add to the policies already implemented in the status quo, or strengthen existing policies.Hedging: diplomatic and military maneuvers to foster bilateral, trilateral and multilateral relations in order to isolate competing nation states for influence. Impede: reduce the ability ofSoft power: diplomatic and economic influenceHard power: threat or use of military force as a means for influence or controlRulesNo semanticsForfeits are auto-lossesDrops are concessions, individual pieces of evidenceNo new arguments in the last round, including new evidence*Rd. 1 is for acceptance. Rd. 2 will begin argumentationGood luck to my future opponent!
Impeding a Rising China

U.S. Interest Analysis Asia has often been the flashpoint and the center of the world's problems and attentions for many years. The Pacific War in World War II and the Cold War are just two examples. A form of hedging was attempted in Korea and Vietnam to prevent Soviet communist expansion; this met with minimal success. Korea- nothing really changed at the end and Vietnam resulted in a Communist victory. In the 21st century, Asia will continue to be a center for world politics as per the norm. C1: China has been acting more aggressively as its military and economic prowess grows [3] While China has indeed made several attempts to calim landoutside of its border in key strategic positions, these have not gone anywhere and while China could have seized these lands and hold them with extreme ease given the manpower they command, they have not for one obvious reason. US naval power far exceeds China’s. The US have over 700 ships ready for war, while then Chinese have no more than 300. They do not have the technology to fight successfully, and while they are progressing, the US still builds ships faster than China.C2: Hedging Advantages I ran a simulation to see in a potential fight, who would win between a wing of 4 F-16Cs and Su-27s (of which China has a variant of). The F-16s were destroyed ,albeit taking out 75% of the enemy force. I then ran a sim to see if the F-15C could do better. The opposite occurred. This shows that in the event of an invasion, the Philippines would do better with F-15s and would be hindered with F-16s. Furthermore, could two F-16 squadrons really withstand a 700 strong airforce long enough for help to arrive?Military Alliances A military alliance does not always mean that sides will come to each other's aid in times of need. In Vietnam, many NATO countries refused to send aid or men to the US.C3: preventing a nuclear arms race. “... the Republic of Korea (ROK) has openly raised the possibility of asking for American tactical nuclear weapons to be reintroduced to the peninsula.” -While hedging would prevent a nuclear arms race, it would also drag the US and China into supplying nuclear devics into the Pacific, meaning they could lose control of said arms if a country decides to launch without the supplier's approval.

We should prevent a discriminating political group from rising in power.

Your arguments: 1A. It's unrightfull to just blame a lesser group for the world's crisis. This is to much of an umbrella statement for me to agree with, but in general i agree, and for the sake of argument i will accept your claim (so you have no need to spend next round proving this) 1B. we should prevent [Nazi-like] discrimnation from happening again in the future I agree 2A. All people are the same Again, i agree with what you are trying to say, my only objection would be that this is phrased on an individual level, and ignores distinctions which are functions of definition, such as black people are darker skinned than white people, but these are largely irrelevant semantics, and as long as you don't go crazy i won't worry about them. 2B. we shouldn't judge people from their looks and their nationality. I agree 2C. we should prevent [anti-Muslim] discrimination I agree If i have mis-represented any of your arguments i apologize and please correct me so i can provide an accurate response. My Arguments: Your resolution is "We should also add a law where discriminating a certain group as your political group goal is forbidden" 1. This law would be, necessarily, a violation of freedom of speech. It basically says that people with certain views should not be allowed to peaceably assemble. 2. This law is discriminating against racists 3. This law threatens everyones future rights It sets the precedent that it is ok to forbid certain views from politics, in your law i happen to disagree with those views (assuming it is properly enforced), but what happens when they outlaw something i do agree with. What happens when they outlaw everything they don't agree. That is exactly what happened in WWII Germany. 4. The first amendment "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
We should prevent a discriminating political group from rising in power.

My arguments: 1. Its unrightfull to just blame a lesser group for the worlds crisis. As you know, the NSDAP (Nazi Party) has been known to use the Jews as scapegoats to blame for the increases of unemployment. At the end, they were nearly wiped off from the earth by the Germans. We should prevent such discrimination from happening in the future! 2. All people are the same, we shouldn't judge people from their looks and their nationality. But as now, everyone blames the muslim immigrants for the world economic crisis again. We should prevent that from happening also! Examples of such groups: PVV, the leader of the PVV is Geert Wilders (Holland) [1] Nazi Propaganda, for a reason i do not know, its allowed in US. [2] SVP, a right wing political party. Also trying to expel muslim immigrants. (Switzerland) [3] And i can continue giving you examples as how racistic the world has become. And so, i give back the spotlight to you.

We should prevent a discriminating political group from rising in power.

Right now, such political groups exists because there is a law where everyones opinions are allowed. We should also add a law where discriminating a certain group as your political group goal is forbidden. Most notable these days are political groups aiming to discriminate muslim immigrants and banishing them from countries. This is to give you an idea of what im trying to tell you. Argument should be posted in round 2, ok challenger?
Soccer vs basketball

RebuttalPro says that if you fall on soccer grass, it doesnt hurt as much as on the hard concrete in basketball. This is false because:1) Soccer entails two people sprinting at eachother at full speed with spikes on their shoes, injuries are more likely to happen, than in basketball, where its more lax. 2) Basketball has less contact, getting hurt by falling is a result of the player's own clumsiness, not the game's. I extend my arguments.
Soccer vs basketball

In this debate, I will be arguing that basketball is a better sport than soccer. If my reasons outweigh the reasons my opponent gives, then I win this debate. Better Pay One of the ways that basketball is objectively superior to soccer, is that it pays to play. The average soccer player salary is $35,125, while the average basketball player salary is $5.2 million a year [2]. How Many People Play 13 million Americans play soccer [3], while 26 million Americans play basketball [4]. That’s almost twice as much! Worth The average professional basketball team has a worth of 1.1 billion dollars [5]. In soccer, only the top 20 teams are worth that much [6]. WeatherMost basketball games are played indoors, which lets you play with air conditioning, God’s gift to Earth. This way, you can play whether or not it's raining, snowing, lightning, hot, humid, etc. In soccer, you are a slave to the weather. [1] http://work.chron.com... [2] http://www.businessinsider.com...

Large Class sizes(pro) vs. smaller class sizes(con)

Both your 1st and 2nd point deal with cost savings of larger class rooms. Pardon me if I worded my statements incorrectly, but I am saying that larger classes would be more efficient as opposed to cheap. While these two terms are not mutually exclusive, they are not synonymous . Why wouldn't we want schools to be more efficient? My issue is that this cost saving is no reason to lessen the standard of education for our children. For poorer schools with already crumbling buildings, the prospect of lowering the bar of education is not a solution. More specificity is needed as to how larger class sizes decrease the "Standards" of education and lower the bar of education. The 3rd point seems to not matter that much. Collaboration will be present regardless of class size. However the smaller class size allows for more personal and individual learning and a closer net group. Also, most often the same course is taught to multiple classes. Outside of the class room, many students from different classes can collaborate. I can understand the logic behind this, however the consistency aspect still remains un-refuted. In addition, while collaboration exists within both settings, a larger class will have a greater capacity for collaboration. I also notice that the point of grouping larger quantities of students with better teachers is rather unaddressed. The 4th point goes back to funding. The management of capital resources is essential. While no expense should be spared, in the schools current state, there is no reason to not make the most out of what they have. "The 4th point goes back to funding. " How does that invalidate the claim made? Overall, my primary reasons that larger class sizes are better were that: 1) The teaching faculty can be filtered to require only the best and most talented teachers and allow them to practice those talents in educating more students. 2) Increase the overall efficiency of schools by allowing more courses to be added and allowing capital to be redistributed. 3) Provide a greater capacity for collaboration through added consistency and care into the assignments. I would like to touch on the 2nd point a bit more. With fewer classrooms needed for the same subjects and student body, the emptied rooms can have new courses placed into them. With the new courses comes new options for students to pursue their interests. This is key to granting students a sense of agency and can help them be motivated. On a closing note, I understand your thoughts on the system as a whole, but with how broad the flawed education system is, you must study and change it one point at a time. Class size is just one cornerstone of many. Thank you for this great debate.
Large Class sizes(pro) vs. smaller class sizes(con)

Sorry if my arguments seem a bit rambly. I am not one to organize my thoughts. The fact still stands that larger class room size leads to less retention of the information given. The relationship of teacher and student is important all throughout a child's learning career. Both your 1st and 2nd point deal with cost savings of larger class rooms. My issue is that this cost saving is no reason to lessen the standard of education for our children. For poorer schools with already crumbling buildings, the prospect of lowering the bar of education is not a solution. We need a different approach and that is additional funding for these schools to handle more teachers, classes, and renovations. The 3rd point seems to not matter that much. Collaboration will be present regardless of class size. However the smaller class size allows for more personal and individual learning and a closer net group. Also, most often the same course is taught to multiple classes. Outside of the class room, many students from different classes can collaborate. The 4th point goes back to funding. My main issue is that larger classes is a way to cut cost and try to help struggling schools. But the result is just a lower quality education. This larger classes does not address the real issue. We do not need to cut cost, we need to raise revenue. The top 50 schools districts need about 80 billion dollars for new buildings, faculty, or renovations. This needs to be addressed and not dodged with larger class room sizes. The rules seem to state that I cannot not counter your rebuttals just your opening argument so I end here.
