High school 101

Did no one else here partipate in the debate team in high school? Evidently, very few, and the same "rules" apply in arguing a case in law.

You make a claim, and that claim is challenged, then you are obligated to substantiate (defend) such claim with substantiated facts, statistics, etc. If you can't, you lose that issue by default.

Many here, (OEB, Winn(Lost) Dixie, as a couple(?) of examples, don't seem to understand that basic concept of debating.

Maybe they didn't debate in high school, maybe they didn't even go to high school, or maybe they are actual lawyers who skipped a few lectures.

In any case, time to call them out. They need to "put up" with lucid verifiable defenses of their "opinions" or "shut up".

There have been many responses requested of them in multiple threads with no response other than irrelevant (more concerningl, incomprehensible) babble. Past time for them to step up and quit wasting bandwidth.

Adults in the room should be able to analyze verifiable fact and perhaps change their opinion if given REAL REASON to do so. Otherwise, just a waste of bandwidth.

I don't think trolls have to follow the debate rules, Dog. Or at least they don't feel obligated to.
I think we should hold them to it. Education 101, or flunk out.

Actually, I really think their goals are not to win an argument, but to trip others up into saying something "rude or insulting" so that they may RTM you and perhaps get you points or banned. They already know that they cannot win the various arguments because they are fundamentally wrong in the first place. They are just simply playing their juvenile schoolyard games.

Many of us could call some out on the straight out lies some have posted about Trump! And many other subjects!
When we do we get the pc standard of insults back of being nazis racists and many other insults!

I suggest to stop cancelling true history, because 1934 Germany is happening all over again exactly on script by the dims!!

So - for 'r' and those DPST minions who are all bent out of shape ( their usual state of affairs) about 'debate rules' - I suggest you seek a consultation from a debate expert.



Sen Ted Cruz was an Ivy League debate champion, and is a polished and effective speaker -
particularly against DPST nonsense.

Please contact Senator Cruz - 'r' - He will certainly 'set U straight" on the path of debate rules and procedures.
