Mcintosh's Argumentative Analysis

President Lincoln proposed a lenient plan to bring the defeated Confederate states to join the Union, which was known as the Ten Percent Plan. He believed that being more lenient to Confederate states would convince them to surrender sooner, and would speed up the healing process, which he thought was needed for a solid reconstruction of the Union. The plan consisted of forgiving all Southerners, except the high-ranking officers and officials, who would pledge loyalty to the Union, and as soon as 10% of the state’s voters would pledge oath to the Union, the state could call a convention and as a result could form a government and apply for federal recognition.

The civil war did reduce sectional antagonist a huge amount but it also made the United states One Nation. The war was a test for the nation or in this case ANY nation for those dedicated to see if they could endure and a final resting place for those who died and for the nation to live. There was division between the north and the south which eventually brought upon the Brutal Civil War. In president Andrew John’s Amnesty proclamation, the Union forgave the confederate and made them swear on an oath to faithfully support, protect, and defend the constitution of the United States. “The union eventually showed that they had no “antagonist” against the south which made the United States One nation once again. The soldiers that risked their lives

In 2011, Jennifer Connell was attending her nephew, Sean, 8th birthday party, Connell walks into the backyard and upon seeing his aunt, Sean runs and jumps to hug her. Causing Connell to fall backwards landing on the ground and breaking her wrist in the process. Instead of doing something rash, like, accepting he is eight and it was an accident since the laws of physics are not clear to him yet, she did the rational thing. She filed a lawsuit - against the nephew. She claimed that the nephew had been "careless" and wanted $127,000 for emotional suffering and medical bills. In her claim she stated that she had recently attended a party and her inability to hold her "hors d'oeuvres plate was distressing and embarrassing. Deliberation lasted a mere twenty minutes. The jury awarded Jennifer Connell nothing.

Ever since the beginning, slavery has always been a growing conflict in the United States. However in the 1800s, it became such a problem that it nearly separated the whole country. Those that lived in southern states believed that they had the rights to own slaves. They argued that the slavery made up a fairly large part of their economy because slaves labor was cheap. This is why many of the big time planters were rich. Also, they felt African Americans were unfit to survive on their own. Northern citizens felt that there was no need for slavery and that it was wrong. But who is right regarding this situation. It all depends on the individual. The back and forth arguing between the north and south was intense, neither backing down from the

Stricklin said the sides reached an agreement in principle to settle McElwain's $12.5 million buyout, but he declined to reveal details until the deal is signed.

Throughout his narrative, Fredrerick Douglass describes his own experiences as they happen. Douglas core arguments against the horrible institution of slavery are embedded in the telling of these experiences.

You are born into this world to a society already sure of what they want. You are taught the ways of your family and they learn from their community. If your family doesn’t like a certain type of person, chances are you’re going to grow up with the same dislike of that person. Leaders of a community get their votes by doing, saying, or promising things to the community that they will enjoy to win the votes. These leaders may never agree with what they're saying but they’ll do whatever it takes to make the nation happy. Segregation, a time where people actually believed it was okay to separate people from a community because of their skin color. But the time of segregation was more than just separating minorities from the white community. People took it upon themselves to put the law in their own hands and treat minorities very poorly. Public lynchings, brutal beatings, and vulgar words could be spit at a colored person and nobody would bat an eye. That was then though, and this is now. We don’t separate anymore, we don’t treat people unjustly, nor judge someone based upon

Butler finished last season with seven tackles for a loss and three sacks. With the departures of Caleb Azubike and Stephen Weatherly, that makes him the second highest returning Commodore behind only Zach Cunningham.

Throughout his piece, King facilitates emotional appeals to convince and strengthen his argument, as well as building it. His introductory sections stirs towards the emotions of his audiences, and full of emotionally-charged experiences why to “wait” for racial segregation to end is difficult and “unwise” for black people. By urging the clergymen to view things from a black man’s perspective, King build a more convincing argument that strengthen his case because the clergymen only sees the court as the rightful place in which blacks will gain their freedom and not by nonviolent protest which they see as “untimely.” Since African Americans are tired of waiting for that freedom time that never seem to come, King proclaim that the time for waiting

We discussed the emotions, feelings, and what he is wanting when he "cuts", and when in his life this has produced his desired results. We also discussed alternatives to cutting. BC appears to be impulsive and has a difficult time thinking in the moment, so he was asked not to isolate when he becomes emotionally dysregulated. He was asked to get permission to go outside to either the back or front yard, and/or if possible go for a walk, to give himself a moment to think of other ways to self-sooth like writing his feelings down on paper or playing his guitar, something he says has worked in the past.

A positive spotlight shines on the GMC Canyon and the Chevrolet Colorado, a pair of midsize pickup trucks with an available turbo-diesel engine.

Furthermore, in an article by Harper et al. (2014), the authors quantify the decisional satisfaction regarding college-age (18-26) women’s acceptance or declination of the HPV vaccine. In this study 306 women without prior HPV vaccination and 299 vaccinated women agreed to participate by completing a survey ranked 1-5 (1=strongly disagree to 5=strongly agree) on how well the individual agreed with the prompts. Harper et al. found that when women approached the prompt of “This is the best decision for me personally,” the mean score for non-vaccinated women was 4.1 and vaccinated women 4.2, respectively, on a five-point scale (Harper, 3). This correlation shows that the women are nearly equal in their satisfaction for accepting or declining

Considerable debate remains around how to read Aquinas on cognition. Some scholars, most recently Richard T. Lambert, argue that Aquinas is predominantly Aristotelian. Other scholars argue that Aquinas is predominantly Augustinian or following broad Neoplatonic impulses. The sheer extent of scholarly attention Aquinas has sustained over the centuries makes the material difficult to wade through and avoiding controversial claims impossible. Therefore, the following summary is an interpretation—one possible reading which I hope you will find convincing for the sake of the argument. This section proceeds in two parts. First, I provide a general overview of Aquinas on human knowledge of ordinary things. Second, I describe the possibility for human

The question of how the mind and body interact, and if they interact at all has been an interest for decades. Some theorists are in complete dissent with one another, others have minor objections with their arguments. My argument is that the mind controls the body, and the two are connected through a central nervous system. This argument is important because it provides us with a justification for man’s rational and often irrational behavior. It explains how the mind and body are connected and how it causes certain behaviors. In order to defend my position of the mind controlling the body, and being connected though a central nervous system I will be using Armstrong’s hypothesis as a basis for my argument. In order to understand these

Waite and Gallagher also discuss the benefits that marriage gives to couples. Including the financial benefits, in that through specialization and by sharing incomes getting married boosts standard of living by thirty percent and this benefit is not incurred by cohabitating, as those who cohabitate do not share as much and are less committed to the wellbeing of their partner. In addition to the financial benefits, they also discuss the emotional benefits of knowing you have someone who loves you and who would take care of you. Children similarly benefit from having married parents as there are more financial resources available to help take care of them and they get to spend more time with at least one parent.
