Thank you We sneak in then here's your shmoop dooz

00:05

your brought to you by hard time Sometimes the world

00:08

of online education is harsher than you think All right

00:11

check the following passage Disenfranchised population balance prison fine car

00:19

voting Green state american citizen public officials law making process

00:23

racially charged General public criminal watched that come reliable I

00:30

once found a painting All right which of these statements

00:34

could best be used as a counter argument to jordan's

00:37

case And here the potential answers smart enough and you

00:41

don't care about love Dangerous All right well this one's

00:46

not too tough We'll just take a tour of the

00:48

options to see which one makes the best argument against

00:51

jordan's Thesis Whoa Choice is laughably on pc while also

00:55

being incorrect for one just because someone is a felon

00:59

it doesn't make them stupid And anyway if people have

01:02

to start passing some kind of i q test of

01:04

vote way have a feeling we might see a little

01:06

slimmer crowd of fools Option b is a definite no

01:10

just because a person was once convicted of a crime

01:13

doesn't mean they don't care about the law The assumption

01:16

Made an option b isn't based on facts so it

01:18

doesn't make a good counter argument We can't prove what

01:21

films do or don't care about option d isn't going

01:24

to make the cut either This argument doesn't make sense

01:27

on a lot of levels Why would have fell on

01:28

beam or dangerous in a polling place than in a

01:31

denny's or a walmart or somewhere like that Should felons

01:34

be banned from all public places If a person is

01:37

so dangerous that they shouldn't be in any public place

01:40

and like why're they out of jail in the first

01:42

place Well choice b is the best counter argument we've

01:45

got considering how many nonviolent charges lead two felony convictions

01:49

like drug dealing money like that it's not crazy to

01:53

think that felons would want to change some of the

01:56

laws that put him in the slammer However jordan would

01:58

probably have a good time countering this counter argument but

02:02

if we can't argue with the counter where can we 00:02:04.7 --> [endTime] be allowed to argue for thanksgiving
