If your from Florida, your black and you want anyone who isn't native to America to be deported to their homeland, why aren't you leading by example?

Anything illegal ought to have a punishment. What do you think the maximum punishment for homosexuality should be?

You sure that type1 and sparrow are the same person? If the mods who have access to IP codes deny it, then I have to side with those who have the information.

We have avoided nuclear war by chance however the technology with detecting nuclear attacks has since then I imagine it's gotten better so you won't wrongly guess if a country is going to attack you. In many if not all examples where we got lucky, the technology wouldn't be state of the art now. It's better to gradually reducing the supply of nukes to turn them into nuclear power. If we remove nukes all at once for the US or Russia, that is how you get the other side to nuke the other country many times. I would say to use 1 nuke per year for electricity sources, which I think is enough to power the US for a year under current conditions.

Repentance is changing your ways. Conversion therapy is designed to help with that. Talking to a therapist can also be conversion therapy. I don't think I have the time to accept the debate. Maybe this summer?

How can it be illegal to buy sex but legal to sell it? I heard that Denmark is giving autistic people federally subsidized sex encounters with prostitutes. This is how the autistic people get STDs.

Conversion therapy is repentance because the gay person is not being gay anymore.

The Bible encourages repentance for those who sin. In other words, it supports conversion therapy.

The Bible says that gays won't go to heaven. If I were religious, I would want conversion therapy.

As long as no more nukes actually detonate, we'll be fine. If you remove the nukes from the USA, Russia would obliterate the US. Nuclear power removes nukes from the arsenal and is good for the environment, at least compared to solar.

Every day that passes by is another day without nuclear war.

Nukes are at this point a necessary evil at worst and a source of energy at best. Nukes exist to defend against other nukes. They also can be used for nuclear power, which can gradually deplete the amount of nukes on the planet's surface. I think they are gradually being dwindled for power.

What scares me with transgenderism is a slippery slope argument. If you can change your gender, can you change your age as well at will? Because if a 52 year old guy can become a 6 year old girl, and if everyone does it, then no one pays taxes anymore since they are all minors. The economy would crumble.

Every human should have rights from conception, but I digress.

The West has more human rights then the rest of the world. Capitalism should be a 3rd pillar to what makes a nation successful.

All I could find was him.calling other ethnic groups, "savages". Ignoring that Lyndon B Johnson did comparably extreme stuff, this was on the basis of their GDP per capita. Africa's, Arab countries, and Asian countries all had lower standards of living then the west, at least that's what I think.

If divorce were restricted, then black fathers couldn't just leave. They would have to take care of the kids they made. In order for a family to legally divorce, there would have to be a new husband for the kids so they have a good male role model.

Every civilization had slavery. The west is prominent because of the 2 pillars: Human rights and secular law. If you have just human rights, you get India, which is not a good place to live. You get secular law, you get China, which lacks human rights. When Muslims combined Human rights and secular law, it created the Islamic golden age. I don't think Adam Smith was a racist.

Conduct point: General Grant.

Pro called Con a racist in , "Well, unless you’re racist, I’m not sure how you’d know that." in Round 3. This is poor conduct.

Sources: Speedrace

Pro cites many times in the debate, although most if not all of them were biased. He also cites twitter, which sows Trump saying what he said. Con only cites once and it's Stephen Crowder.

Spelling and Arguments: Tied.

Is this a good RFD?

I think peer on peer tutoring already exists. It would be nice if it became more prominent within schools, but I don't know how there would be time for it.
