Li Sheng Wu Debate Speech



A rough Synopsis:

the debate is about the use of graphically disturbing images(e.g war)

-use images to close this gap of feeling(rape,etc.)
- use of such images doesn't necessarily hurt the victim family
- victims want their story told so that can stop it from happening in future
- competition to report more graphical images is good, cause we all become more aware of such deeds(reporters in diff countries)
-False assumption that people commit atrocities to gain attention(picture in newspaper, welly famous)
-Reports of such atrocities can establish public opinion as a powerful tool to be used against such evil-doers
-he whack the fella: ur right to be offended from such disturbing images is much smaller than the world's right to know of such atrocities that is happening
-change public opinion on weapons of torture
-even tho got danger for journalist, is bo bian, cause got risk that can catch pics of atrocities
-such images is necessary to change world's policies
- counter viewpoint that such images cause unnecessary scares to public
- Media informs us to make decisions base on acts that are morally wrong to defend humanity

-> Conclusion; Lead to fewer atrocities, fewer tortures , fewer deaths

How to grow an entrepreneur is coming to Amazon.com soon. It is a book called SAVE PEBBLE DROPPERS & PROSPERITY, also cited in claysamerica.com. The book shows how America prospered in a world unable to achieve freedom, prosperity and success, other than dictatorship and special interest elite bennies. It describes the psychological foundation of entrepreneurship and prosperity. The basic, simple elements of prosperity are listed in claysamerica.com and are great Tea Party and Ayn Rand justifications for those new to politics. Many people are learning why and how to apply the brakes to Obama’s headlong rush to European Marxism, mercantilism and bigger government. The tradition of individualism and freedom is still too strong for the kind of centralizing power-grab we are experiencing today. Claysamerica.com
