gotta go with Teach2Preach on this one
Nigga...where?! Show me.

Nigga...when?! Point out his 'moments' to me, if you have the time.
_Goldie_;9526367 said:It was a pretty good debate actually, however I think younggun did a better job at attacking preach's angles. Preach's main stance was that it would be going against what the founding father's thought would be best for DC due to potential conflict of interest, but younggun's rebuttal was great, basically saying that there's been many things changed within the constitution since it's creation (1 being slavery). Preach didn't really rebuttal younggun's "no taxation without representation" angle well, he practically agreed with younggun by saying "the reps indeed do have limited power". Lol but I gotta give homie props for making this a good debate, being that he didn't even know DC wasn't a state.
Winner: YoungGun
How was this a good debate? Legit question. No shots
Maybe I'm referring to a different debate than y'all. I dunno. If I'm being 100% honest, the fact that I didn't win this 3-0 is troubling.
Salute to @Preach2Teach still though because he DID get the shit end of the stick having to defend that position. And salute to @Sion and @HundredEyes also. Let it never be said that y'all ain't loyal to the cause. Y'all found a way to cheerlead this bullshit. I ain't even mad at it.
I think something everybody needs to take into consideration is that he's not from the states and is debating a US matter. I wouldn't know as much about Bosnia for example as someone from there would, so he was at a disadvantage to begin with. So the fact that he knew about our constitution , the council of DC, etc, was impressive imo. I gotta give propers when propers are due. He made good points, he just didn't attack the holes in your argument as well.
