    This won't affect the coin tosses. A max of 3 tosses will happen anyway. And then 2 more for opening arg. At least that will be done.

    Yeah I know. is Strasser participating, i'm a little confused...

    Also, in real life are you pro gun, cause I aint, and it would be helpful if I had someone on my side who was.

    Not to sound like an utter jackass, but is the "pro-gun" stance for gun control or against it? Just want to get myself into character so to speak.

    It was just worded a little vague is all.

    I think pro gun is anti gun control, however, not 100% sure.

    Well, I suppose we'll need to get that sorted. Let's have "anti-gun" be for gun control, and "pro-gun" be anti-gun control to avoid any confusion.

    Sound good to everyone?

    With demokrat's approval, I will be happy to open the debate. I am working on squishing a few bugs for release of a software project... so the last few and next few days I have little time, and I would like to devote a fair amount of time to this debate...

    So lets confirm our 4th, and I will put something together over the next couple of days to open.

    Was there ever a fourth person found for this?

    Also, the debate should be the heart of the matter so it shouldn't be necessary to "officially" call "winners" and "losers" at the end of debates, but rather - every reader end up a winner by being witness to them.

    I'd be keen to be on the anti-gun control side if there are any places left :)

    I don't think there are, and even if they were, you don't get to choose your side.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Alright, so I think we have four, if you are indeed "in" than please post on this thread saying simply, "Here". If four people post "Here" Than we shall begin the next day.

    Looks like we are all here, are we all aware of what side we've been assigned?

    I may be able to moderate if needed. I'm quite busy atm but I'd be happy to see a good debate on the subject.

    I don't see why you would need the support of others for a gun control debate unless your subject information was weak.

    Better to go to the gun control area of the forum and debate there.
