Wow, you have good ideas, the last one is interesting, I sometimes wish everything could stay simple. The death penalty I think should be allowed everywhere but not given unless necessary and under the right circumstances, but I think thatg should be a possible consequence. The search a seizure thing, that's a tough argument b/c there's circumstances there to, an officer can ask to serch and you can say no buit if he/she has probable cause or reasonable suspicion he can do it. They need a warrant unless they actually see evidence, it's not black and white b/c there are so many diferent senarios, I personally think it doesn't violate safety and if you have nothing to hide you wouldn't have a problem with a search. I think you should use this topic and maybe change the argument up a lil bit and go ask actual police officers. Good Job man, c ya later

These are some pretty good argumentive topics. I espically like the last one, because it's something that has been on my mind. Which ever one you choose for your paper I'm sure you'll do a great job because these topics are wonderful.
While I agree with these comments that the third idea is interesting, it's very broad, and I think it would be nearly impossible to adequately present it in the length of paper that you're writing. The first one, however, may be more feasible.
