Description

America is not a messed up place.

Rules:
1. Forfeit=autoloss
2. No new arguments from either side in the final round
3. This debate is comparative. No arguments about humanity being messed up generally should be considered.
4. If anyone other than DynamicSquid accepts this debate, they forfeit automatically.

The private challenge option seems to be broken at the moment.

Reading this on my cellphone due to GF’s school not having open guest WiFi...

A clear statement of what messed up means in context of this debate, should have been in the description. I can assume it’s comparative, but by which metric? Freedoms might decrease order, in which speaking against freedom of speech makes sense. Generally better off to whatever standard the voter likes, in which freedom of speech is a good thing. Etc.

Hopefully, we get some votes going.

So the worst came to pass. When the problems with the website happened yesterday, I found out there was a problem when I tried to post my argument. Now it's gone. eaten by an SSL error. I don't know if I'll be able to retype it all but I'll do what I can.

Ignorance is a bliss children

America is one big terrorist network. Everything from the Constitution to the Bill of Rights is bogus.

Oh, just as a quick clarification, what do you expect the BoPs for either side?
