Fat Persuasive Speech

I am sure that everyone of you have heard about aliens and UFOs. Indeed, we all have heard about the famous case of aliens and UFOs in Roswell, New Mexico. Most people might be interested in the topic of aliens, but I know that the majority of you just think of it as rumours and the existence of them are impossible. Therefore, I am standing here in front all of you to make you change your perspective. I am strongly confident that I have found the evidence of their real existence to convince all of you.

Persuasive speech outline purpose: To persuade my audience to donate blood through the American Red Cross. Introduction:

It was October 6, 1998 when he was lured from the bar that cold, fateful night. His skull was smashed with a pistol butt as he was lashed to a fence, left for dead in near freezing temperatures. Nearly eighteen hours later he was found by passersby and taken to a hospital where we remained in a coma for several days until slowly slipping away. At his funeral, picketers carried signs saying, "God Hates Fags" and *Fags Deserve to Die."

Have you served in a war? Has your father or mother served in a war? How about your grandpa? As we honor those who have served we typically do so by standing for the pledge of allegiance or star spangled banner. We say thank you to our war heroes or we go and visit them and listen to their stories. In this paper I will be discussing why NFL players should not be allowed to kneel for the flag. Although the NFL players have the right to peacefully protest, they should find a different way than kneeling as it shows disrespect towards the flag also active duty military and veterans, it teaches young children this behavior is okay, what they are protesting has nothing to do with the flag and there are many different ways to get their message out.

I just want to thank you for what you have accomplished for the California School District these past years. I do have one concern though, and I am sure you have looked into it before, but I would like you to reconsider the situation. In past years, many students have wondered why we do not have a soccer team. Having a soccer team would open up so many different paths in the high school for students, staff, and even the community.

I wasnt really paying attention to where we were going, more on the songs playing and my radical playing of the air gutiar. But eentually we turned off of the highway and, a few minutes later, into the parking lot of disney world. I turned off the music and turned to him, a smile creeping across my face

Doctors are telling their patients they are obese and to fix it with exercise and eating right. On top of our doctors telling us to lose weight, we see in the media everyone is skinny and then we are even harder on ourselves again because, we, as a society think we all need to look like that, “normal humans are constantly exposed to the zero-fat mutants in the media, and we naturally assume that were supposed to look like them” (547). Barry says this meaning we all want to look like the skinny people on our TV screens. Therefore we when watch television and listen to radio ads and see things on our phones about meal packages to make you lose weight or work out videos, and without hesitation we choose to buy them because we want to solve our problems as easy as possible, and we do that by giving the most money to the companies with some ridiculous object or food that will make you drop a certain amount of weight and make you look good again. Barry shows how ridiculous society can be in believing anything the media says and buying

C. As long as schooling increases the marginal return to work more than crime and schooling does not decrease patience levels or increase risk aversion.

“ Great shot Breanna, great shot” said a fan congratulating her on winning the game with a buzzer beater shot, with a second left to play. After the game was done, she went into the locker room to change and get ready to go home. Once she got finished changing she starting walking outside towards her car.

Eating and drinking unhealthy things has proven to be a contributing factor to child obesity. Child obesity has doubled among children in the last few years and is rapidly increasing. Sodas are offered at schools and that is a major factor in child obesity. As it is unfit for the health of a child and can lead to unhealthy food and drink choices. We should ban soda in schools and by doing this we will be protecting the health of today's young minds which one day can do great things.

Today there is a international epidemic, there are more than two billion people on this earth are obese, that’s over thirty percent and that number isn’t falling it is rising dangerously fast. The Director general of the world health organization Dr. Margaret Chan called it a problem of “epidemic proportions” and that is not all everyone from the First lady, Michelle Obama to celebrates like Steve-O and prominent athletes such as Lance Armstrong have all come out and commented on the topic of obesity and the world problems it is causing us. Only now in the passed couple decades has the light been shined on the topic and the push to understand it has begun. In order to first solve this problem we must look at the history behind it and the environment

The kids are hungry so their Mom pulls into the nearest drive through and it goes like this…Welcome to McDonalds drive through can I take your order. Yes, I will have two chicken nugget happy meals and a Big Mac. Would you like to combo that up with a pop and fries. Sure. How about upsizing your order to a big fry for only 59 cents more? Another sure, and Mom is heading home with dinner.

Children now spend more than seven and a half hours a day in front of a screen whether it be a television, computer, smartphone, or playing video games (cite). No I didn’t stutter, no I’m not exaggerating, seven and a half hours a day, can you believe that? As sad as it is, I’m unfortunately not surprised. Society continues to rapidly evolve as we continue to become consumed by technology and the latest iphone. I’m not going to lie, I do love my iphone and I fall guilty to spending more time than I would like on my phone, watching tv, or on my laptop. Obesity is a serious problem in the United States, more than 80% of adults do not meet the guidelines for both aerobic and muscle strengthening activities, and more than 80% of adolescents do not do enough aerobic physical activity to meet the guidelines for youth. (cite) This is an interesting piece of information. Most likely parents who do not exercise, do not motivate their children to exercise either. That’s why the percentages for adults and adolescents are so similar. Our youth need to be guided in the right direction, so we have a healthier world for future generations to come. Children are easily influenced so it is extremely important that we instill in their young minds the importance of exercise and being physically active. If children see their parents on their phones for hours on end, watching tv or

For example, using a leftover coffee can for loose nails or screws, or even washing and reusing a plastic zip-loc bag instead of throwing it in the garbage. Thrift shopping is a way of reusing someone else’s unwanted goods. As I spoke about in an earlier speech about thrifting, I included many locations and ways to thrift, also the benefits to the shopper and the donator. One place in particular was shopping at the local boys and girls club. I personally shop there, keeping my eyes open for a good deal. For example, the pair of jeans that I am wearing today was purchased from this store just a few months ago. I paid only $8.00 for this pair of Lucky Jeans and according to buckle.com, a retailer for lucky jeans the retail price is $99.00 that is a savings to me of $91.00.I am not the type to worry about name brands, but quality usually does cost more. If I can get a quality pair of jeans at a fraction on the price, I am glad to shop at the thrift store. I am thankful to the person that made the donation of the lucky jeans and they can benefit from that donation. According to the IRS webpage, IRS. Gov it explains that an individual can donate items like clothing, household furniture and furnishings, a car or boat, even taxidermy. The donations are appraised, by the donator, and recorded. At the time of filing taxes if the donation equals at least $500 for the year, the donator may take advantage of the

Everybody sees it everywhere. “Lose 60 pounds in 6 weeks!” “Skinny is what’s in!” “Detox diet plan!” It’s a fair assumption to assume that the world, especially the United States, is obsessed with being healthy. From celebrity workout programs to expensive diet systems that make people lose weight, being fit is always what’s mainly focused on in the media, daily life, and nationwide. But with obsessions, come unhealthy actions and interests. Most people that anyone knows is most likely upset with some aspect of themselves. Whether it be the way they look, how they eat, or their lifestyle, obsession happens because of the nearly-impossible body types and lifestyles found on social media. On top of this, there are also restrictions and challenges that come with eating a healthy diet that seem simply irradical to address, and unhealthier foods are more available than ever. With these slowly arising issues, anyone would think the nation is making it hard for themselves to be healthy. The society the nation lives in is making it progressively harder and harder to be healthy because of the lifestyles that are easier to achieve.
