Opposing View 2 with Details and Refutation of O.V. 2
Opposing Vibew 3 with Details & Refutation of O.V. 3
CONCLUSION (Restate your position and give final perspective
*Definition: Opposing Views are reasons, held by those who dont agree with you, about WHY your argumentative position is not correct, or is not the best position on your topic. An opposing view is not simply the opposite position..
Example:
*Argumentative Thesis: There should be a California law that no cell phones can be used while driving.
*Opposing View: We already have a law against distracted driving, and this is enough of a protection.
*Refutation/s (this refutation happens to have 2 parts):
1) It is not enough protection, because there are too many accidents due to cell phone use while driving; and
2) the definition of distracted driving is too vague to be useful and prescriptive.
