Side: Opposition

Ryan, I disagree. In the first place, we are actually not allowed to fight, and disguising ourselves only leads to the fact that we are cowards. What makes us different from being bullies ourselves?

You cannot forget to bring your badges and tie and be required to by a new one because in the firrst place you do not need one.

Bringing expensive attire leads to social discrimination.

Hey opposition guys do you seriously want to wear school uniforms ask yourself that I bet that if give a choice you would no want to wear school uniforms.

Sorry but I meant not, not no, and seriously it is not as if you guys are not that poor as to be discriminated.

What kind of dispute is that?!?!? And what makes you think we do not want to wear it??? It is an unfair statement to make.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

It's quite possible that the 'opposition guys' you refer to left school long ago, and whilst they might have agreed with you when they were there, their points of view could well have changed since.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

Furthermore, I feel that scrapping school uniforms will ultimately close down several uniform producing companies, and people will lose their jobs. Another reason is that uniforms actually help to mask a person's social and economic status, preventing him/her from being bullied. Contrary to what Zi Heng mentioned, stains on school uniforms are very easy to wash off when bleach is applied to it. Worth mentioning too is the fact that all stains on almost any type of clothing would make it noticeable.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Proposition

First of all, many attires are much cheaper than our uniform, and buying uniforms will only make that family poorer. Just because you wear a cheap attire to school, it might not mean that you are poor. Anyway, with the money you spend on the uniform, you can buy a more comfortable and stylish clothing. Lastly, white coloured clothing make stains more obvious than any other colour of clothing, especially darker coloured clothing.

School uniform prevents confusion like when the class goes for an outing and students wear their own clothes, it is very possible that students would get lost in a crowd.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

School uniforms hide people's financial status, and to some extent, prevents others from getting bullied or teased.

This is also known as social discrimination. Singapore supports equality, and there will be a huge difference between the dress wear of the rich and poor people.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

If poor people wear lousy clothes, then they will be severely humiliated.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Proposition

No as not all people like to tease other people so the poor would not necessarily be teased by everyone.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...

That is not the point. The point is that there WILL be teasing.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Proposition

If they are poor people would already know it does not take cheap clothes to tell people that they are poor or rich.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

If you are poor, and IF people don't know it yet, you can still cover up by wearing your school uniform, which are not that costly, and no one would know.Secondly, as I said earlier in class, the more uniforms are alike the more unity amongst schools we have, and UNITY is one of Singapore's values.Also, what if your choice of clothes is uncool, people would laugh at you. However, since uniforms are alike, everyone wears the same design, thus no mocking.If you would prefer to wear a multi-purpose clothing to school to serve as PE and Class wear, not only would you have to go through class wearing the same sweaty clothing for the rest of the day ofter PE, you would risk you OWN clothing getting dirty, instead of your less-treasured school uniform.Also, lets say you have a very limited wardrobe, and run out of different clothes to wear, you would have to REPEAT a set of clothing you wore before, and would not only be exposed of poverty, but also of poor fashion design.Lastly, let us say you help someone in need or do something outstanding, and the person wants to give you a reward, but forgot to ask for your contact details. At least, he would have the uniform you wore to identify the school you go to, to narrow the search. This would not be possible if you wore casual clothes.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Proposition

If you are poor, and IF people don't know it yet, you can still cover up by wearing your school uniformNice clothes are relatively inexpensive; it is major brands that carry an extra charge. One presumes that you do not wear your uniforms for your life outside of school? If that is the case, you should have at least 60% or more of the clothes you would actually need to wear casual dress to school. The rest can be staggered throughout the year. Secondly, as I said earlier in class, the more uniforms are alike the more unity amongst schools we have, and UNITY is one of Singapore's values.It may be among Singapore's values, sir, but is it among yours? The school exists to educate individuals, it is not an assembly line that vomits forth a new batch of faceless drones every year, no matter how much the establishment may want it to be. Also, what if your choice of clothes is uncool, people would laugh at you.If they are the kind of people who would laugh at your choice of clothes, would you really care? And would you have otherwise been friendly with such people?However, since uniforms are alike, everyone wears the same design, thus no mockingBullies always find targets, sir. Not everybody looks the same and thus they are wont to make light of people's facial features. That is usually far more potent a jibe than a dig at somebody's clothing.Also, lets say you have a very limited wardrobe, and run out of different clothes to wear, you would have to REPEAT a set of clothing you wore beforeEverybody who I count among my general acquaintances repeats outfits. I have never met there fantastical creatures that proponents of uniforms imagine stalk the corridors of every school, flaunting their inexhaustible wardrobes at every opportunity.and would not only be exposed of poverty,It is not necessary to be monstrously poor to have a limited wardrobe, that's an exaggeration that I think you will have little luck defending, sir. Lastly, let us say you help someone in need or do something outstanding, and the person wants to give you a reward, but forgot to ask for your contact details.Oh please let's not resort to inventing ridiculous fictions to sustain our arguments. I could just as easily say that it would be possible to track somebody down by the unique style of hat that they wear, or their colourful footwear.Besides which, that's a rather shallow and materialistic reason to wear a uniform, regardless of the inefficacy of the argument for say, 99% of students.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...

It showcases how we feel for our school, and it unites us as one.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

I think that school uniforms should not be spread because our school crest is the symbol of the pride we feel for our school and our unity with each other as we stand together. Without it, It would seem as if we are nobody, but with our uniform, we are recognized as our school.

Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

Yes, but committing crimes are wrong. We are all 13-14 years old, so please do not badly influence us.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Proposition

Yes, but committing crimes are wrong. We are all 13-14 years old, so please do not badly influence us.Do not contrive to escape your logical quandary by playing the innocence card, sir. I suggested that the argument was fatally flawed in that it supposed that people who commit crimes are incapable or unwilling to change out of uniform, which is a patently ludicrous premise upon which to operate.

Looking from the perspective of the economy, I think if we were to scrap uniforms there would be a huge loss of job and would severely effect the economy.

This is not true as most likely school uniforms are made by machines, as if they were hand made they would cost more.

Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Proposition

Looking from the perspective of the economy, I think if we were to scrap uniforms there would be a huge loss of job and would severely effect the economy.Not a great argument. One of the basic rules of economics is that money not spent somewhere will be spent elsewhere. You have conspicuously failed to mention the increase in expenditure upon individual clothing.Besides which, it is unlikely that these companies subsist entirely upon the production of uniforms, and if they do, then their business model is flawed and they deserve, in the eyes of the capitalistic systems under which we are fortunate enough to live, to crumble.

No sane or intelligent person would disagree that school uniforms will prevent colour discrimination and prevent children from wearing clothes with vulgar words on them. Children will also be identified if they play truant. School uniforms are awesome and are therefore not out of date and should not be scrapped.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Proposition

No sane or intelligent person would disagree that school uniforms will prevent colour discrimination That is not logical. It's akin to saying that if everybody wore the same clothes then homophobia would evaporate. That is simply delusional thinking and one only has to look at the United States Military's former "Don't ask don't tell" policy to see this.and prevent children from wearing clothes with vulgar words on themWhat makes a word vulgar, sir?Children will also be identified if they play truantTreat the disease, sir, not the symptoms. The real issue is why they are playing truant in the first place. School uniforms are awesome and are therefore not out of dateThat is not an objectively logical statement.

Students will look neater, and more intelligent in a neat uniform. Also, pants, jeans, shirts and T-shirts cost a great deal more than normal School Uniform. In my opinion, this is the most important factor considering the fact that not everybody comes from a rich background.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

@Zi HengOnly SOME people wait until the school term is about to begin, before buying uniform. They shouldn't! And colours are easier to wash off using bleach, which whitens the shirt.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

School uniforms would prevent girls from wearing suggestive type apparel and thus boys would be better able to concentrate on school work. Kids would not be competing....for the best clothes they can wear, but on the best grades they can get.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

I agree. We need to let the world know that ACS (Barker Road) is the place of education and we should be proud of it. We would be embarassing the school if we went to school with an unkempt uniform.
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...

We need a way to link back to our school,to remind ourselves that we are part of the school.This creates a sense of belonging and unity amongst us...Brian
Debate: School Uniform is out of date and should be scrapped...
Side: Opposition

School with uniforms is better disciplined.Create sense of belonging, togetherness.All students are equal despite different family background or income. Students do not waste time selecting what clothes to wear. youth's pressure in trends. Easy identification especially on excursion trips, etc. School uniforms have been in tradition for years, provides a link with the school past, encourages pride with the school. Therefore school uniform should NOT be scrapped!

It takes the same amount of time ironing other clothes, contrast to what Nicolas claims of the longer period of time it takes.
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Pro Captivity

Killer Whales have a special care and healthy life. "Animal Training techniques help veterinarians, animal care specialist trainers, and keepers to perform medical examinations more easily, and with less stress for the animals. These animals get very well trained to present various parts of their body for examinations, measurements and blood sampling. They are trained to get on a scale, and even to urinate when sighned to do so. Most IMPORTANTLY, they are trained to hold still and remain calm through out any examinations. These are cute, good, awesome, caring, loving, wonderful, sea creatures!
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Against whale captivity

Killer whales do NOT have special cares and a healthy life, most times trainers don't have the knowledge to take care of these animals, and most times they are forced to train that way from captivity, and are starved until they do the training correctly.
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Pro Captivity

whales do not know what to do while they go to Sea World because they are just baby's they do not know what to do. They are just like your mom trying to train to do something you don't know how to do it. They need to be trained more to know what they are doing while they are at Sea World doing shows.

Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Pro Captivity

whales are treated with love in Sea world but they intelligent animals they should how to listen what the trainers are saying to them i know they wild animals but they are treated with kindness and love they should not be eating people the trainers are not hurting the whales look at dolphins they are also intelligent animals and you don't see dolphins hurting people.
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Pro Captivity

Whales should be in captivity because if they are in the wild a animal could try to hurt or kill it.They should be in captivity because if they are hungry the trainers can give them food instead of trying to look for it and keep looking for food.it would kinda hard for baby whales to look for food with their mother.they should be in captivity
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?

Some of these whales because have been born in captivity so there actually probably used to it.

I PERSONALLY THINK that having KILLER WHALES IN THE POOL OF SEA WORLD is COOL and it would be GOOD for SHOWS!
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Pro Captivity

I'm Pro Captivity with some hard core changes to how they are kept now. For one, if we continute to keep them in captivity, they need more space to explore and move around. They also need more stimulation and to be kept in their biological pods instead of being a money grub of "whereever the money is gets the whale"
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Pro Captivity

Whales should be captivated because they get treated with care. Also, with new technology, researchers are saying "they live longer being captivated than being out in the wild". It entertains the public of what whales can do, such as their tricks. It's a good in enviroment for whales and also they can socialize with other whales. Whales have special bonds with the trainers. Keeps whales from being harmed or hunted for by other animals. Educates the public about the beauty of orcas. They also get feed too. That why oras should be captivated.

Side: Against whale captivity

Sea World shall not be kept in captivity. These poor animals have been in caged, and are depressed on what they had gone threw. Sea World has taken many babies from the mother, and has to blame the dead trainers about the whales killing their own whales
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Pro Captivity

We need to free these caged animals. These whales aren't getting much food they need to survive, plus these animals are hurting each other, because Sea World has been punishing these whales, and putting other whale that don't speak their own same language/ and whales that don't know each other.
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Against whale captivity

i agree with 1300117288 because these poor animals have to stay in a big tank and sometimes get food.So its their fault that these poor animals are killing there trainers they should never took them away from the mother
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Pro Captivity

These whales are very intelligent they know what they are doing,some whales are with there family's some aren't maybe they took the whale because the whale was in bad shape and needed care have y'all ever thought about that? These whales need care and how are they gonna get that in the wild???,Thank ya
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Against whale captivity

If their very smart,then does that mean we should just keep them in captivity and let them still keep killing these trainers at sea world, don't forget these trainers are humans like us and are the ones that trained these whales, and now their betraying their own trainer, and now u still want whales in captive and keep are human beings be in-dangered
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Against whale captivity

These whales are very intelligent and do know what they are doing, but they are taken away from families if they do not behave well, like the case of takara and kasatka. Yet, most of the trainers/catchers take any whale, in bad or good condition. Yes they can sometimes need care but most times in the wild they figure it out on their own.
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Against whale captivity

They should just stop because it also means that the more killer whales that grow up in sea world and held in captivity just means there will be more dead trainers
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Against whale captivity

u are right about the whales and when the trainer are teaching the whales a new trick and the whales don't do it right the whales get hungry and the trainer don't give them food so u can't expect to be okay with it of course they going to kill the trainer for not giving them food.
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Pro Captivity

I highly disagree because they are in more danger than being captive.
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Against whale captivity

whales should not get held in captivity cause whales are very big animal and i think they should be to stay in the wild and live good life cause whales have fellings like us so why should seaworld capture whales from there family for just entertainment when all there doing is feeding them and helping them get there lives easier
Debate: SeaWorld Debate: Should SeaWorld be able to hold whales in captivity?
Side: Pro Captivity

I'm pro -captivity because they are feeding them and they are getting treated very well. Also, if whales were in the wild, they could get hurt or atten by other animals.
