Debate club!

Hey everybody,

I am a Terminale student and took more responsabilities in the functioning of the debate club this year. I really want it to work so that we can all go and participate to a MUN (Model United Nation) in Aix and maybe in Lyon. If you have never been and you wonder what it is, don't hesitate to ask me questions about this event.

Anyway, the debate club is set off again! Our first meeting this year will be on Monday the 5th in the usual meeting room (on the ground floor) at 12.35.
The goal of this meeting is to make a first debate to ameliorate our critical thinking on today's main issues or current debates (all in English of course). It is a fun way to communicate with others while reflecting and convincing.

I chose a pretty simple topic for the first time in order to get used to it and take easily part into the debate :

Should weapons be accessible to everyone?




I count on you to think about this subject, to search concrete examples (countries' legislations, moral and social impact etc) and to conclude by saying "Yes" or "No" (or argumentate well if you can't make up your mind...).
It won't take you more than 30 minutes to do a list of ideas and examples so give it a try :)

If you have any questions concerning the subject, the MUN or the debate club, don't hesitate to come talk to me, Loic or Nathan and we will answer you with pleasure.

See you soon (and you can bring food for the organizers if you want because you love them... just saying (and kidding) ;))
