Maybe not specific to your topic, but swot up on how to successfully avoid a question or derail a discussion without your opponent noticing (so watch interviews of politicians and political debates and pay attention to which words they use).
Yeah keep preaching that stupidity. I´m sure your handguns would really work if the US goverment decided to stomp a mudhole in your face. Outdated ignorance is still outdated and causes 12.000 deaths a year in the US.
And when you outlaw guns einstein, you get less deaths. Funny how that works

Guys, you are getting way off topic.
Listen to your opponents, if they sound uncertain about something, pounce on it and make them doubt their own information. That way you can "win" the debate, even if you are wrong.
1. Induced stem cells are far more prone to forming cancerous tumors than embryonic stem cells (source).
2. All known efficient methods of growing useful quantities of induced stem cells involves genetic modifications, particularly oncogenes, which makes the above problem worse.
It doesn't really save them cause they would be getting aborted still. The person getting the abortion donates them otherwise they would be discarded.

Really nation bashing in a non gun crime related post.
Argue as follows: why the fuck not? constitution does not directly forbade it, there for its unamerican to opposite it.
easy win, as with all debates, you can just always say that the opposition is unamerican and you auto win.

I seriously don't think you know how much power the federal government has gained since the Constitution's creation. The President is acting completely within his power by making executive orders and agreements, as well as the veto of laws. Fortunately for you, I assume, our country is in a state of devolution revolution, in which the national government is slowly but surely giving powers back to the states that were taken away during The Great Depression. Also, the multiple clauses of our Constitution are supposed to be elastic, and while I agree with you that Congress is trying to stretch out what it can do, you should also realize that our Supreme Court would declare those ridiculous laws created unconstitutional and void, thanks to the Marbury v. Madison court case.
"Only an american would support more guns as the way to remove gun related deaths. But you keep rocking the highest death count in relation to guns of any civilized country and keep telling yourself they help. "
So...what are you going to do about it? We have the right to run our country in the way we feel is justified; thus we have our Second Amendment to prevent the utter control of a tyrannical government, as an aforementioned poster stated. What are your country's people going to do if a government goes through great strides to control you on every possible level? Write a strongly worded letter? Actions speak louder than words, my friend.

Hundreds of thousands of people have died due to drowning in the time period you have specified in the United States.... DOWN WITH WATER!!!!!!

No. If the Federal Government determined that it would no longer follow the Constitution (apart from going through the actual amendments process by which the states and the federal government could jointly change the Constitution in any way they chose including abolishing it), then the federal government would no longer be the legitimate government of the United States and it would be the duty of every loyal citizen to return the United States to a government within the Constitution.
I agree with you on this point especially since just above this I talked about removing an illegitimate federal government to restore the Constitution.

And after banning guns, we can ban water which kills a dozen times as many people. And then cars and then knives and then moving parts and then emotions and then etc...
/sarcasmoff
Yes, instead they justified it as a tax when the bill specifically stated it was a penalty which renders the bill unconstitutional as a bill of attainder.
Obamacare was not determined to be constitutional so it doesn’t seem like the Supreme Court will do so.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.

Since the debate question was whether or not the government should be allowed to fund a specific type of stem cell research. If the affirmative tried to argue that stem cell research should be funded by the US government because adult stem cells could be used which would not violate the sanctity of human life (or whatever), then the negative could say, "I completely agree. Adult stem cell research is A-OK with me. Funding for Embryonic Stem Cell research, which is the subject of this debate, however, is not, for X Y and Z reasons."

You might want to read up on that, instead of calling name and spewing garbage, go look at the crime statistics in some countries that have recently banned guns... look at the crime statistics for the city of Chicago, where getting a gun permit is next to impossible. I'm not going to call you names because I have something on my side that you dont... and thats facts....
