Imported Mango 13 Report post Posted December 22, 2006 The Terrorism Information Prevention System was a bill in 2002 that would have created a national telephone hotline allowing anyone to report "suspicious" activities seen anywhere; for instance, if the cable guy was working in your house and saw some terrorist-related materials, the guy could report it. TIPS is such a squirrely argument. I have to agree... T is really important, Solvency attacks, lots of oncase, etc. Nothing really different from last year, tons of Militarism, Statism/Elitism, CPs.

homiejon69 49771 Report post Posted December 22, 2006 The Munford racism impact cards are solid, as is the popular Barndt (1991) evidence. I would look into other authors such as Choi (1997), Ackerman (1999), and especially Memmi, which allows you to access an internal link and impact to a biopower argument. biopower? ewww Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nolongerused 52 Report post Posted December 22, 2006 I wouldn't read his ev, at least to me he seems pretty racist. Ex: "A small and predominantly white minority of global population derives its power and privilege from sufferings of the vast majority of peoples of color." The entire card sounds like that all colored people are poor, and will always be poor until we break down the prison of racism. And the best racism impacts are from Munford. They're amazing. That's a statement of fact, not a racist comment. It is in fact true that the reason the white minority has so much power is because they have power over others.

nolongerused 52 Report post Posted December 23, 2006 I disagree. TIPS is not an acronym, it is actually a backronym. They came up with the name TIPS, and then an acronym was made from that. So they link turn the critique. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mezriss 478 Report post Posted December 25, 2006 yea and delay is the least abusive counterplan Squirrely cases warrant squirrely answers. Run plenty of topicality, it makes it easier to justify your strat if they aren't topical (which they aren't). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
