Debated outline
|
|
|
|
I. Cross examination of attack on status-quo.
|
|
|
|
Possible inherency 1. Rise in hate related crime do to lack of
|
|
legislation. - All criminal acts deemed hate crimes are already illegal.
|
|
If not they would not be their very nature be crimes. Questions - Is it
|
|
true that the terrible acts that you described are already against the law?
|
|
Is it also true that the "hate crimes" you have described are really just
|
|
as affected by a lack of adequate police force than inadequate legislation?
|
|
Would it be reasonable to assume that the afformentioned reason is true of
|
|
any criminal act despite motive?
|
|
|
|
Possible inherency 2. Inadequate punishment is being given to people
|
|
who have committed "hate crimes". - Motive should not be the reason for
|
|
an increased sentence, but severity of the crime. - Is it reasonable to
|
|
assume that committing a criminal act on someone because of their race is
|
|
terrible? Is it then also reasonable to assume that committing a criminal
|
|
act on someone because they have refused your advances or simply because
|
|
they got pleasure out of hurting people is also terrible? Are you than
|
|
saying that the former case , the ones that you would call "hate crimes"
|
|
are more terrible even if the actual act is the same? You do realize that
|
|
this is what you are saying by assuming that hate crimes deserve a more
|
|
severe punishment?
|
|
|
|
Possible inherency 3. Rise in hate groups promotes violence. - People
|
|
are not forced to listen to hate mongering groups. The people who mostly
|
|
follow them are people who believe what they are preaching. - You are aware
|
|
that you are recommending that we limit freedom of thought, even if the
|
|
thought is deplorable? Are you aware that this is in direct violation with
|
|
the first amendment of the United States Constitution? Do you realize that
|
|
if such legislation were passed it would give precedence for Congress to be
|
|
able to pass any law governing freedom of thought? Do you also realize that
|
|
if the government could pass any legislation on free speech or thought that
|
|
the ideals of liberty and democracy would be outlawed? Doesn't it then
|
|
follow that by passing such a legislation we would be giving our government
|
|
the power to , with another such law, suppress another great idea which
|
|
could improve the world by accidentally limiting the right of expression by
|
|
someone who would think up such an idea?
|
|
|
|
Possible inherency 4. Marches and other assemblies by these hate
|
|
mongering groups encourage hate crimes. - First amendment makes any
|
|
legislation against this possible, and with good cause. - Are you aware if
|
|
it was legal to limit assembly labor unions would never have formed, and
|
|
the horrid factory conditions characterized by the 19th century, such as
|
|
low wages long hours, overcrowding, and no concern of workers well being,
|
|
would still be in existence? Couldn't such a legislation also accidentally
|
|
prevent another great idea in the way of assembly from emerging?
|
|
|
|
|
|
Possible Sections for speech against their plan.
|
|
|
|
1. The plan that my opponents have stated has many blaring inherent flaws.
|
|
The first, and perhaps most obvious, is it total inability to be put into
|
|
use. The first ammendment to the United States constitution states that,
|
|
Congress shall pass no law violating anyones freedom of speech, religious
|
|
belief, or right to assemble. It is obvious that this, one of the most
|
|
important passages in the Bill of Rights, was placed there to prevent laws
|
|
such as this, for the second we allow our government any control over our
|
|
right of expression we have given them the presedence to pass other such
|
|
laws. It was said by Walter Lippman, a respected political columnist, that
|
|
"No official yet born on this earth is wise enough to seperate good ideas
|
|
from bad ideas, good beliefs from bad ones." Mr. Lippman is correct. By
|
|
silencing any ideas at all you have violated the most basic freedom that
|
|
this great country bestows upon its people.
|
|
|
|
2. Another problem presented by the plan is its obvious lack of
|
|
enforcability. How do they propose that we find who are the members of
|
|
"hate groups"? Do we go on witch hunts for Klansmen? Come on if law
|
|
enforcemnt officers can't control actuall crime that undeniably causes
|
|
physical damage, how do you expect them to deal with crimes that do no
|
|
physical damage, and that people can simply choose to avoid. I mean people
|
|
can't just say to a mugger "Excuse me. I don't want to be robbed at
|
|
gunpoint today." but they can walk away from a "hate" rally if they choose
|
|
to.
|
|
|
|
3. It is logically wrong to punish people for the motive of the crime.
|
|
What makes a murdurer who kills out of hate for a group any worse than a
|
|
murdurer who kills out of hate for an individual? The answer is nothing.
|
|
I fail to see the difference it makes for the victim, even if it is only a
|
|
minor crime.
|
|
|
|
4. United States law enforcement agencies are already facing severe
|
|
financial problems. It takes an immense cost to finance the trial and
|
|
jailing of criminals. Do you suppose that we throw these departments
|
|
further in debt due to a flow of people who are memberes of "hate groups",
|
|
people who have not actually commited any crime other than speaking. The
|
|
cost of the trial process alone would be tremendous if your figures on the
|
|
amount of people who belong to "hate groups" are true.
