Presentation transcript:

BR: D12 Pick one of the following arguments, take 10 minutes, and attempt to disprove it: Pro-Immigration: “Borders are inhumane and cruel. The suffering they cause is incalculable, and no moral nation would restrict helpless people from looking for a better life.” Anti-Immigration: “Without borders, our country would be overrun by drug lords, criminals, and deviants who want nothing more than to pillage, steal, or live off of our social services. Only those who can prove that they will add definite value should be allowed to enter; otherwise, we need to clamp that border shut.”

Goals: Our goals for today: Continue to practice how to be verbally persuasive, especially while utilizing research, regarding especially the issue of immigration reform

Logical Fallacy of the Day Nirvana / Perfect Solution Fallacy People make the argument that the ideal is best, and so a pragmatic “good enough” solution just doesn’t cut it. Form: X is what we have. Y is the perfect situation. Therefore, X is not good enough. EXAMPLE:

D13: Grab your textbook, and take 5 minutes to read the following pages (& answer the following questions as you do): pp 128-130 How is your assignment similar / different to the process of a research paper? Explain 3 of these: Do you agree with the author when they state: “It is best to approach your research with openness and questioning”? Explain: How long can this research process take? What lesson do you take away from this?

Goals: Discuss and practice how research can help hinder / assist you in being persuasive at a speech and debate competition.

Fallacy of the Day False / Weak Analogy: Using an analogy that doesn’t make sense, and therefore the conclusions drawn are not good.

Debate Time: Next debate will happen in 10 minutes! See handout for schedule, resolution: Resolved: The United States federal government should substantially raise the annual limit for employment-based immigrants, eliminate the per-country limits for employment-based immigrants, and exempt individuals with graduate degrees in science and engineering fields from the numerical limit.
