Soldier X Persuasive Speech

(Waves to Witten, Warren and Boone) Thank you, Jill Stein, for your very eloquent address. (Stares at Jill) Throughout my time as a public servant I have never met a more distinguished legislator and I will truly miss you. (Pauses, turns to the Audience) My fellow Americans, when I stood on this stage nearly two decades ago, I addressed this convention for the first time. (Reflects, points toward the Audience) I asked you, the American people, to renew our government's commitment to economic justice, to inspire the fair and lasting prosperity of our nation. (Slowly raises Hand) Today, I ask you to continue that commitment, as I endorse Kyle Kulinski, the next President of the United States! (Pauses during Applause) Thanks to Kyle’s campaign,

War is a very tough thing to handle. There is sacrifice and death, and yet peace is still not found. Now countries like the U.S. might fight with others but they don’t use children to do it. Other countries like Sierra Leone are using children to fight their battles. Their horrible methods are immoral and unsafe, so it is only safe to say that child soldiers are the victims of this unspeakable act. The goal should be to rehabilitate these children, not punish them. We should give these kids a chance at a normal life. Some of these children have watched their parents die in front of them or have been victims of rape and abuse. They have nothing and if we punish them even more by taking away the one thing they are still trying to hold on too,

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."

Two of our fellow seniors, Curtis Robinson and Sumayyah Singletary, have taken the initiative to plan an unofficial class trip. The following is a message from them:

T.I.’s hip-hop music video “Warzone” was published in 2016 as an attempt to showcase the cruelty that blacks in America face by police. The music video is contemporary, which is significant because it takes place in the middle of the Black Lives Matter movement, a movement with a message that has holds different connotations for different people. Through poetic lyrics and striking imagery, T.I’s “Warzone” captures the savagery that blacks in America are subjected to by police and helps develop the Black Lives Matter movement.

How would you react when a child is holding an AK-47 towards you trained to kill? Would you save yourself and live with killing a child? Or try the convince the kid to spare your life? Child soldiers are children under the age of 18 who are recruited by a state or non-state armed group and used as fighters, cooks, suicide bombers, human shields, messengers, spies, or for sexual purposes. The horrible and tragic fate of any unfortunate children is set on the path of war, murders, and suffering. More nations should help prevent these tragic times and to help stop the suffering of these poor, unfortunate, and innocent children.

Your mom, dad and your siblings are killed. You have no place to live, and no food to eat. What do you do? You know of a local military base and they tell you you get shelter and food. The only thing you will have to do is fight the people that killed your family.

Sound’s of fire arms going off. Screams of innocent people being killed. By people no younger than five years old. Heads full of drugs, alcohol, and gunpowder. Killing when told to, and never questioning the person giving the commands.

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.

Students at Palmyra Area High School should not be allowed to display information supporting the display of the Confederate Flag in the atrium. The flag is seen as a controversial symbol, and can allow disruption to happen throughout the school. Supporting the flag is seen as a something throughout heritage, however, the flag can also be seen as racist. Throughout school hours, the school has the privilege to monitor the student's free speech, attempting to make the school a place that all the students want to be.

1. Why is this topic important to them? The topic is important to my audience because it may help them see the death penalty in a different light.

“Sometimes by losing a battle, you find a new way to win the war” – Donald Trump—As a child in school, I remember how we honored our emperor’s picture in every class, the teachers were strict, and I couldn’t date or hold hands with a boy. Even outside, teachers were observing us, to check how we behaved in public. Sometimes, I took the train to go to school, and from the station there was about ten minutes walking, and there she was, at the corner of the street wearing a dark suit, in a powerful position to check on us. The rules were to be respectful to adults, especially elders and superiors, no talking back was allowed, we needed to dress appropriately, and we were required to have impeccable hair, clean clothes, clean shoes, short nails,

Yes, have our current military. Provides a safety net for all and makes sure that we have no foreign threats. Keeps our freedom and independence. It is an extension to providing a free environment for all. 81% support and like the military overall (Forbes.com)The military is there to serve and protect America as a whole as well. They defend the constitution when oath is taken (Opening phrase is, I will support & defend the Constitution (In Military.com) ) Without that, there is a sense of vulnerability and others may perceive us as weak and easily manipulated. With a force, we will have a chance against others and a way to protect our citizens. Our current constitution provides Congress the authority to shape the different military branches & their conducts, basically support the military. Without basic protection, how can we even have a slim chance of surviving? Not everyone can protect themselves like the young, old, sick, & disabled. They play a huge part in promoting political agenda, protecting economic interests, internal population control, construction, emergency services, social ceremonies, and guarding important areas.

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
