CP Hillary

CP Text: The Supreme Court of the United States ought to

-invalidate the 2016 Electoral College results on the ground of foreign interference

-set a date for the electoral college to reconvene

-invalidate Donald J. Trump as a candidate for President and Mike Pence as a candidate for Vice President due to election interference

The Counter Plan would result in the election of Hillary Clinton as President.

HERE’S WHAT I’M PROPOSING. Impeaching Donald Trump, and removing him from office,

AND

election by disqualifying Trump and Pence, thus determining the actual 45th president.

And put away your perms, the counter plan is competitive. It would nullify all Trump executive orders and bills illegitimate, AND immediately halt ALL legislative action.

CP Leniency & Grassroots

CP Text: In the United States criminal justice system, prosecutor ought to offer lenient plea deals in response to over-policing. To clarify, this practice is often called grassroots plea bargaining and involves prosecutors granting lenient and often completely non-criminal pleas to first time offenders especially minority and young offenders.

Prosecutors used plea bargaining more when policing got harsher. Bowers 07:

Josh Bowers, Bigelow Fellow and Lecturer in Law, University of Chicago Law School "Grassroots Plea Bargaining," University of Chicago Public Law and Legal Theory Working Paper, No. 169 (2007). CR

When it came to plea bargaining, however, prosecutors did something wholly different.

AND

may be tantamount to lenient dispositions for the reason of speed alone.87

When prosecutors use grassroots plea bargaining, it helps young POC in urban jurisdictions. Bowers 07:

Josh Bowers, Bigelow Fellow and Lecturer in Law, University of Chicago Law School "Grassroots Plea Bargaining," University of Chicago Public Law and Legal Theory Working Paper, No. 169 (2007). CR

Prosecutors need not give grassroots plea-bargaining discounts to all defendants in all jurisdictions

AND

who were most likely to rouse communal sympathy and spark potential backlash.154

Grassroots plea bargaining is an survival strategy. Bowers 07:

Josh Bowers, Bigelow Fellow and Lecturer in Law, University of Chicago Law School "Grassroots Plea Bargaining," University of Chicago Public Law and Legal Theory Working Paper, No. 169 (2007). CR

Ultimately, then, prosecutors lose little by reducing conviction charges to non-criminal

AND

more willing to at least abide mass arrests if plea prices stay low.

DA War Crimes

US practices regarding plea bargaining spill over – empirics prove. Bowcott 17

Owen Bowcott, 4-1-2017, "'Global epidemic' of US-style plea bargaining prompts miscarriage warning," Guardian, https://www.theguardian.com/law/2017/apr/27/traditional-trial-rights-renounced-as-countries-adopt-us-style-plea-bargaining

The adoption of US-style plea bargaining has reached “epidemic proportions” as

AND

Development and Training sending out American prosecutors to train foreign judges and lawyers.

And plea bargaining is key to fighting war criminals and stopping genocide. Large scale crime require testimony based pleas where foot soldiers provide evidence for shorter sentences and help prosecutors convict top leaders. It’s not a question of it’s ideal. It’s not. But it’s this or nothing.

Mohr, Aaron. "The Necessity of Plea Bargaining." Drake University http://www.drake.edu/media/departmentsoffices/dussj/2013-2011documents/PleaBargainingMohr.pdf

Military tribunals and international crimes have been another central point of contention in the debate

AND

no doubt in my mind of the need and usefulness of plea bargaining.

1 Atrocities destroy any potential for a citizenry with human capacities. The impacts are numerous. Destroys the capability for reasoning and political autonomy.

De Greiff 09, “Transitional Justice and Development,” Chapter 24 written by Pablo de Greiff and Roger Duthie from the book International development: ideas, experience, and prospects. Currie-Alder, Bruce, et al., eds. OUP Oxford, 2014.

Systematic human rights violations undermine human capacities. Redressing them is a development goal in

Aside from the effects of massive human rights violations on individuals, there is another

however, this diminished capacity for social coordination constitutes an obstacle to development.

NC Structural Violence

First, normative statements like the resolution require understanding the distinction between subjects that traditional frameworks deem worthy of recognition. This means the primary moral obligation must be focused on granting recognition of the oppressed. Butler 09:

In a recent exchange,1 the British sociologist Chetan Bhatt remarked that "in

Second, there is always a higher order obligation in rejecting oppression so excluded voices can be incorporated into our decision-making. Clifford and Burke 08:

This means consequentialism – moral theories can’t focus on individuals since there’s nothing that unifies them across time. Only states of affairs can have value.
