Public Argument Proposal

I chose to continue my research on drone use, primarily focused on the use in military aspects. As I have stated before, I am fascinated by future technology and I believe drones, whether I like it or not are the future of warfare and quite soon will they be the future of everyday life. No doubt in my mind many organizations will try to use the full potential of drones to somehow maximize revenue. Currently the world is afflicted with the issue of whether or not drones are ethically fine to be used to in warfare. Each side does its fair share of wordplay. The pro-drone for example say things like “drones help keep our American soldier’s safe from harms way” and the anti-drone side argues “life should not be taken from someone clocking into work and pushing a button.” Both of which seem to be valid points, obviously each side has its pros and cons but the idea here is to determine which side’s positive aspects outweigh its negatives. My audience for this paper would have to be the younger generations who will fill in the spots of today’s leaders. If I am able to convince them that my take on drones is more appealing than the opposition, that influence will carry over to their work if they decide to pursue careers in politics or the military. I will do so by including charts and visual analysis because I am aware that younger audiences respond better to information given in that type of format. If we are to create a piece the way professionals do, I will mention the opposing side and refute, but I won’t include visuals when it comes to the opposing side, it will undermine my argument and render the rhetoric I use to be insignificant.
