Instructions<\/p>\n
Your first writing assignment considers the debate between Mill and Devlin on whether and to what degree the law should enforce morality. Specifically, you need to develop a standard form argument that answers the question: Should there be laws that criminalize hate speech?<\/p>\n
For this assignment, you need to make sure that you\u2019ve carefully read the articles from Mill and Devlin; watch the videos; take good notes on their arguments; and review your feedback on any of the related Discussion Forums.<\/p>\n
Avoid outside research unless you\u2019ve checked with me (this is to avoid bad philosophy you can find online and to minimize the risk of academic integrity violations). Also please remember to not use quotations \u2013 though paraphrasing is welcome and expected.<\/p>\n
There are three stages to the writing assignment:<\/p>\n
\u2022\tStage 1: Conclusion + Supporting Premises (part one of the Standard Form Argument)<\/p>\n
For this stage, you\u2019ll need to come up with a conclusion that answers the question: Should there be laws that criminalize hate speech. Then, you\u2019ll need to provide four premises from the readings that support your conclusion.<\/p>\n
\u2022\tStage 2: Objection + Response (part two of the Standard Form Argument)<\/p>\n
For this stage, you\u2019ll develop a strong objection (counterclaim) that challenges one of your premises. Next, you\u2019ll debate this objection and provide a response to it that further develops your original premise.<\/p>\n
\u2022\tStage 3: Revised Standard Form Argument<\/p>\n
For this stage, you\u2019ll take the feedback that you got from the first two stages, make strong revisions, and put them all together into a complete (revised) standard form argument.<\/p>\n
Please note that in order to get timely feedback, you\u2019ll need to meet the original due dates.<\/p>\n

On the following page, there is a template that you MUST use for this assignment. The purpose of this template is to 1) make sure you include all the relevant pieces and 2) to keep all the stages together so that I can evaluate your developing ideas.<\/p>\n
Then, you\u2019ll submit it to Blackboard (there\u2019s a video tutorial showing you exactly where\/how to submit).<\/p>\n
For each stage of the assignment, you need to include all previous stages \u2013 so, you will just keep adding on to this template. I need to see your earlier work in order to evaluate your progress, so please ask me any questions about this if you\u2019re confused \u2013 thanks!<\/p>\n
Remember from our unit on arguments, that premises, the conclusion, and your objection are all only one sentence long. The response to your objection can be a few sentences long if necessary.<\/p>\n
