Back to topic of thread.... tough trying to find a true fallacy because you need real facts and stats to back up an assertation. Like the Obamacare thing, yea it seems a fallacy, but it's still being debated so tough to write a paper on it without it being somewhat based on opinion. Someone mentioned the rifles killing stats, that might work because you can PROVE that they aren't used in many individual attacks.
Exactly. I was just talking to Chris about this. Not only do I have to back up the fallacies with facts proving that they are, in fact, a fallacy, but I also have to provide the original place where it was said. So I can't just go "ar15s are assault weapons. fallacy." I have to provide a quote from someone that SAID that an ar15 was an assault weapon, and then disprove it. But all the stuff being thrown out here is giving me the ideas I need to go find these quote and articles that say these things, then find the facts to dispute them. Like I said above, the ideas about fallacies are the smallest part of the assignment, the real work comes after I pick 10 of them.
