In Class Writing – 11/12

“Defend” your argument using three fallacies, one of each type (emotional, ethical, and logical). You can write out your fallacy or create a meme or comic if you’d like to get more creative with it. Post your work to your blog & share with your classmates.

Argument: The Death Penalty should still be practiced today

Fallacy for Emotional Argument:

Band Wagon: All the other states are banning the death penalty, so why isn’t your state banning the death penalty.

Fallacy for Ethical Argument:

Ad Hominem Argument: Everyone who believes the death penalty should be abolished is crazy, and they are all just too soft

Fallacy for Logical Argument:

The death penalty has been around since the beginning of time So why ban it
