Whaddup Fam,
In my english class we are writing persuasive speeches that we are going to present to the class, the speech is supposed to be about a subject or issue that the speaker is passionate about. I’ve decided to write my presentation on the FBI’s classification of Juggalos as a gang. This speech can only be so long and I’m having trouble deciding what points to include into it. If any one has any ideas I could be really grateful, how has the FBI’s gang label affected the Juggalos? What really makes it so wrong?
Whoop Whoop.

I would use statistics if available. Percentage of population in area that call themselves Juggalos with gang related crimes committed by said Juggalos vs Non-Juggalos with gang related crimes by those. If the percentage of the population that is Juggalo is say like 0.5% and they only commit 0.5% of gang related crimes then what you are seeing is nothing but simple population cross section, not evidence of a Juggalo gang culture. (I made up those statistics. I have no actual figures)
I like facts in debates and speeches instead of opinions. But facts can be too dry for some. Here is a good article on pervasive speeches -> http://www.slideshare.net/gmur…..techniques. I think if you have a bit of a comedic sense to your style, then you’ll do well. I like watching the TED conferences and find that the ones with a bit of comedy to them go over really well and I find myself more engaged when listening to them.

Ill write your speech if you can do a strategic analysis of recommendations for brick and motor electronics retailers…preferably using Porter’s Five forces…PESTEL framework, and a graph explaining the implications of these recommendations on potential market share. Otherwise im afraid youll have to do ya own homework.

You can come up with your own points, you’re a big boy.
Just remember to use Ethos Pathos and Logos.
And do some research on Logical Fallacies ( @scruffy and @luckynumbrxiii love those so much ) to make sure your argument is nice and firm like Kim Kardashian’s ass.

And the writer puts way too many of their political and social beliefs in there too. Very informative, just annoying.
