Description

No information

Round one complete. Two directions pro could take from here:

1) Differentiate between allowing things as debates versus allowing things on the forums
2) Come out with the real reason they dislike rap battles and say they should not be allowed on those grounds.

Easy round two for me either way.

Anything harmless that's fun should be legal. Anything that only harms those doing it and any consenting party should also be legal. In a rap battle, people consent to being insulted, so it's fine.

I will give some advice to you before I post my first round.

I will do this because I am a nice guy.

Here is my advice...

The resolution says "should", not "could". Therefore you should use your next round to try convincing the voters that there should be no rap battles on DART.

You have not tried to do that yet.

This is all the advice I will give to you.

You are welcome.

I will post my argument shortly.

Good bye.

I hate to give my position away, but your side is "There SHOULD be rap battles on Dart". it is not "Rap battle should be ALLOWED". Different wording changes. former as to spoonfeeding poison is the latter as to legally allow making poison, but not spoonfeeding it. Unless you are arguing that there absolutely should be rap battles on Dart, then you'd lose.

Look at the title. it is "should" not "could". People can smoke weed but should they? no. I can legally allow marijuana but that does not mean I encourage them.

Lol by accepting this debate I am not saying that rap battles are debates, I am saying that rap battles should be allowed on DART. If you wanted to argue whether rap battles are debates then make a debate about whether rap battles are debates (that is not what you did here).

Easy win for me, sadly. I was looking forward to a challenge. Will post my first round after I get off work in 8 hours or so.

"Fun? Stealing is fun, going on drugs is fun, killing is fun and masturbating is fun for some people, but that doesn't make it good to be done. I believe rap battles aren't debates, just like stealing and smoking weed are not moral behavior."

But those are bad things that are pursuited for good goals(i.e fun)

Rap battles are goof things pursuited for good reasons

Wanna take this debate? well, I am nervous if you do, but you will get a GG from the back of me.

What's funny is that there are no rap battle debates in progress. A year ago, there were many rap battles going on all the time and now, when there are none, the objection arises.

Rap battles are fun.

You just gotta say this to DDO also, but I accidentally deleted the account so instead, I am here.

Thank you. This site has so much potential, but god, is it wasted.
