Summaries- Hashmeesh

Free Heroin to Battle Addiction

It is counterintuitive that instead of Vancouver trying to fix the heroin problem by getting the users to quit, they are fixing the problem by giving away free heroin to users. The city says that they are fixing the problem by making the drugs available so users won’t have to rob or commit crimes to get drugs. This doesn’t fix the drug problem it it just prolongs it.

Giving the users this free heroin isn’t helping their addiction, it just keeps them from getting drugs off the streets. Users are still addicted and using a very hard core drug but now its supervised. Heroin is a drug that affects a persons health greatly. In the videos you can clearly see that these users look sickly, pale, and malnourished. The government doesn’t care about their health, as long as they’re not out robbing and looting. They people in the video even go as far as saying that the users were acting normal while on the drugs. Heroin is a hallucinogen and causes its users to see things that aren’t real. They may seem normal, but they are high and aren’t functionally normally.The city needs to help its users by giving them rehab so they can no longer use. After they stop their health will return and they will be able to function normally in society.

Principal Encourages Cheating

It is counterintuitive that the school would rather cheat for better PSSA scores, than actually help better the students education in order to achieve better scores.

Schools are suppose to give students the best education possible. If the students scores are low they need to fix the problem by helping the students learn more efficiently. Cheating to get better scores isn’t helping the students learn, it just pushes them along to the next grade without the needed information they need. The school is robbing their students of an education.

Organ Donor Vultures?

It is counterintuitive that organ donors are trying to help people by killing other. The organ donation groups are falsifying examinations in order to get organs earlier and quicker.

These groups are suppose to be helping people, but they are doing it at the expense of others. The companies constantly check up on patients not to see if they are ok, but to see how close they are to dieing. They are only worried about getting their organs in time. They send doctors to families and tell them to lie and pronounce their loved one dead. These people are in fact under law legally alive. This can go as far as being called murder. After the doctors pronounce them dead the hospitals pull the plug which kills the patient. This contradicts the whole purpose of the group which is to help people.

    Your summaries follow the correct format, Hashmeesh. They open with a statement of counterintuitivity, and they use the evidence from the summarized original material to make arguments, so they’re purposeful.

    I will likely return to make more specific and thorough comments (and I certainly will if you request feedback), but for now may I point a couple of details you need to eliminate.

    1. You appear to be unfamiliar with how to form possessives.
    2. You are violating the ban on the 2nd person.

    Original: Heroin is a drug that affects a persons health greatly. In the videos you can clearly see that these users look sickly, pale, and malnourished.

    Corrected: Heroin is a drug that affects a PERSON’S health greatly. In the videos WE can clearly see that these users look sickly, pale, and malnourished.

    On a side note, I certainly hope I’m not discouraging anyone from becoming an organ donor by making available these dubious arguments from the “anti-donor” scare team. Nothing in the world is more counterintuitive than having our organs buried with us when they could end suffering and save lives.
