COUNTERCLAIM: Vaccines should not be required because it can cause severe side effects that are sometimes fatal. What this argument does not consider is that more lives are saved from getting vaccines than lives that are endangered.
REBUTTAL: While this argument is popular, it is not supported by facts. For example, only about 1 in 20,000 children are harmed from vaccines enough for hospital whereas roughly 285 children are saved per hour.

(COUNTERCLAIM) - On the other hand standardized tests don't narrow curriculum down to one thing they focus on all topics.
(REBUTTAL) - While many people say that they understand why there are standardized test, they're not looking at the results it leads to, for example, "According to late education researcher Gerald W. Bracey, PhD, qualities that standardized test cannot measure include "creativity, critical thinking, resilience,motivation, persistence, curiosity, endurance, reliability, enthusiasm, empathy, self-awareness, self-discipline, leadership, civic mindedness, courage, compassion, resourcefulness, sense of beauty, sense or wonder, honesty, integrity" (ProCon.Org).

Many people say that police shouldn't use body cameras, that the cameras are too expensive (counterclaim). There are people who support the idea of body cameras aswell."A YouGov poll found that 92% of Americans support police cameras with 55% willing to pay more in taxes to equip local police"(procon.org).

Police should not wear body cameras because it can negatively affect their physical and mental health (Counterclaim)

Opponents refer to a study published by the European Journal of Criminology to say that assaults on police officers were 14% higher when body cameras were in use (ProCon.org, Police Body cameras), but a pilot program in Edmonton, Canada were officers were given body cameras saw a 35% decrease in instances of physical aggression by the public

(counterclaim) Many people say that meat is more convenient than being vegetarian, and is an easier way to get iron. Meat also supports more humans to survive than being vegetarian.
(rebuttal) Though meat can be more convenient, eating meat can increase the risk of getting type 2 diabetes and heart disease. "According to a peer- reviewed 1999 study of 76,000 people, vegetarians had 24% lower mortality from heart disease than meat eaters.

However, it is often thought by many that vaccines cause illnesses. One popular claim is that vaccines cause autism(counter claim).
While this stance and view on vaccination is popular, it is not one hundred percent factual. In the article,"Should Vaccines be required for children?", it states that, There are reactions to vaccines, like an allergic reaction, but that only happens "in one per several hundred thousand to one per million vaccinations"(procon.org).

(Counterclaim) Police shouldn't use body cameras. People say that the cameras decrease the safety of police officers, and that they also negatively affect their physical and mental health.
(Rebuttal) While this position is popular evidence shows otherwise.

(Counterclaim) Many people argue that vaccines harm children because of side effects.
(Rebuttal) Although this claim is true in the fact that vaccines can have negative side effects, vaccines can overall save children's lives.

It is often thought that vaccines can contain some ingredients that are harmful(Counterclaim). What this argument fails to consider is how little the amount of unsafe ingredients is in the vaccines.

(Counterclaim) it is often thought that standardized tests are equal and fair to all students because they all carry the exact same content in all tests.

(counter:) Critics argue that "standardized testing had a positive impact, improving the quality of the curriculum while raising student achievement." (procon.org)
(rebuttal:) While there may be some truth behind the idea of standardized testing it doesn't explain the full effect it has on the rest of other subjects in school. "A national study by the Center on Education Policy reported that since 2001, 44% of school districts had reduced the time spent on science, social studies, and the arts by an average of 145 minuets per week in order to focus on reading and math."

(Counter claim)- While critics argue that vaccines are safe according to many health organizations like the FDA, IOM, CDC, AAP, etc.

(Rebuttal)- What many people don't take into account is that theses vaccines can cause serious and sometimes fatal side effects. "According to the CDC, all vaccines carry a risk of a life-threatening allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) in about one per million children. The rotavirus vaccination can cause insusceptible, a type of bowel blockage that may require hospitalization, in about one per 20,000 babies in the untied states." (Procon.org).

A study done in 2001, shows that most of the students that took year-to-year standardized tests, their score improvements are only temporary.

Counterclaim: Critics insist that the use of tests allows for more focused activities on essential content and skills, and eliminates activities that do not produce learning gains.
Rebuttal: However, the elimination of these so called time-wasting activities, also decreases the amount of creativity the students are allowed to express. According to a study done in 2010, "American scores on the Torrance Test of Creative Thinking have been dropping since 1990" (Con 14). Researcher Kyung-Hee Kim stated, "'If we neglect creative students in school because of the structure and the testing movement...then they become underachievers'" (Con 14).

Many students don't attempt tests for multitudes of reasons, from just not caring, to anxiety, to just having a bad day, because they have trouble answering the test because of how it's worded, in some situations, because classes learn til the end of the semester, students end up being tested over a small-large amount of knowledge they weren't able to learn it in that time frame.
(Counter-Claim) Many experts claim that both students and teachers find standardized testing to be an effective way of gauging knowledge, increasing productivity of students, and even finding it to be essential to a students success.

According to other studies, a meat-centered diet can help with weight loss since that lean meat has fewer calories than some vegetarian options (Counterclaim).
While these results can get so much attention from those who want to lose weight, a meat centered diet may not be as healthy as the vegetarian diets. In fact, studies show that vegetarians are up to 40% less likely to develop cancer than meat eaters. According to a study that was done by Harvard in 1994, colon cancer's risk can be increased when any type of meat is eaten five or more times a week and the risk is increased eve further if the meat that was eaten was processed meat. For example, "A 2014 study found that diets high in animal protein were associated with a 4-fold increase in cancer death risk compared to high protein diets based on plant derived protein aources" (ProCon.org).

Now according to some they say that police shouldn't have them at all because they could "decrease the safety of the officers and negatively affect their physical and mental health"(ProCon.org). (counterclaim)
