SACE No. Topic: Euthanasia Question: Should voluntary Euthanasia be legalised in Australia? Introduction: Voluntary euthanasia has become an issue of religious‚ philosophical‚ legal and human rights in Australia. Due to the lack of awareness about voluntary euthanasia‚ people tend to confuse it with just euthanasia. It is crucial for today’s society to understand what voluntary euthanasia is defined as‚ the effects of it‚ the current law in Australia‚ and what societies role is. Defining

Debate Topic: Cosmetic Surgeries Should Be Banned (For) 1. Cosmetic surgery can be psychologically damaging The compulsion to change one’s body is often a symptom of a mental instability. It should be treated as a problem‚ not by surgery. Research indicating that breast augmentation patients are four times more likely to commit suicide compared to other plastic surgery patients raises questions about the mental health of women who choose implants. There are also studies that show negative psychological

Issue: Should euthanasia be legalized in Australia? Pallid skin‚ cool to the touch. Invisible‚ bony fingers drag the sides of your lips down into a grimace. That lifeless‚ although still holding onto life‚ loved one is your family‚ your friend‚ and a person you hold dear to your heart. People feel this desperation everyday.

acknowledging an action for invasion of privacy. By legislating at a federal level‚ most suitably within the Privacy Act ‚ a more consistent and structured cause of action can be put in place. By acknowledging the need to protect privacy rights‚ Australia will be coming into line with not only the rest of the common law countries‚ but also with its international obligations under the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.

The most common forms of capital punishment include electrocution‚ gas‚ firing squads‚ lethal injections and hanging. Australia abolished the death penalty in 1975 and since then‚ there have been many debates about whether it should be re-introduced. Capital punishment is uncivilised‚ represents solely revenge and is commonly a miscarriage of justice. Consequently‚ Australia should not re-introduce capital punishment. Capital punishment is both uncivilised and barbaric. Firstly‚ it brutalises witnesses

Australia has been a “good” global citizen through its supportive role in the United Nations (UN)‚ aid in other countries in the Asia-Pacific region and promotion of a range of regional agreements involving countries throughout the Asia-Pacific region. The United Nations first came into being in 1945 as an organisation dedicated to the maintenance of world peace and security. Being one of its founding members‚ Australia has committed troops to over 20 UN peacekeeping operations and supports the

Mandatory sentencing: judges are too soft on criminals. Their entire focus should be on punishment and retribution‚ and if they keep wasting their time with other considerations then we should introduce mandatory sentencing. To what extent do you agree and why? The sentencing system should not be altered‚ for decreasing the focus and increasing the frequency of sentencing would do more harm than good. An emphasis on merely punishment and retribution in criminal sentencing would prevent the right

The second reason why we should not allow guns on college campuses would be because some student could be emotionally traumatised from an experience involving guns. Such as Danielle Vabner‚ a UT student who “lost her 6-year-old brother in the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting” joined a rally to support the need of Gun Free colleges. Especially if the intention was “to harm others”‚ this person could potentially feel triggered by that situation when in the presence of a gun. The third

School Uniforms Schools should be schools and not fashion shows. Students that attend school are mostly worried about what they are going to wear to school and less worried about their homework‚ which is far more important. I believe that we should have school uniforms for multiple reasons. Most students think that school uniforms are dumb because every one of them would be wearing the same exact thing. Did you ever think that you could stand out in your own special way? Not everybody has to wear

carry guns. It is understandable that Americans would optate to possess guns such as shotguns and rifles for the popular sport of hunting. However‚ it is ridiculous that our regime would sanction people to carry handguns in public. Handgun possession should be stringently constrained‚ because they are made solely to kill people‚ they have incremented the murder rate‚ and they have even enabled children to facilely injure another child. The first reason for firearms to be outlawed for
