Initial Argument Paper ( Does social media enhance or hinder interpersonal Relationships?)

This assignment is not an essay but an exercise that helps build toward your Final Paper for the course. Your task in this assignment is to construct the best argument you can for a position on a controversial topic. Your argument should be your own creation. You may take inspiration from other arguments, but the formulation of the argument you present should be original to you.

Prepare:

• Begin by choosing a topic from the PHI103 Final Paper Options list.
• Construct an argument for a position on the topic. This is the position that you will defend in your Final Paper. Make your argument as high quality as possible: In particular, make sure that all of your premises are true and that the truth of the conclusion is demonstrated by your premises.
• Consider possible objections to your argument, and revise it several times until you have an argument that is as strong as possible.
• Search in the Ashford University Library for quality academic sources that support some aspect of your argument.
• Constructing quality arguments is harder than it sounds; you may find that your first few attempts have problems and that it takes quite a bit of time and effort to revise an argument to a point that the premises adequately support the conclusion. You will be revising this argument for each of the remaining assignments in this course.

Write: In your paper,

• Present a main argument in standard form with each premise and the conclusion on a separate line. Here is an example of what it means for an argument to be presented in standard form:
  

  All men are mortal.
  Socrates is a man.
  Therefore, Socrates is mortal.

• Provide support for each premise of your argument. Explain the meaning of the premise, and provide supporting evidence for the premise. [One paragraph for each premise]
  • Pay special attention to those premises that could be seen as controversial. Evidence may include academic research sources, supporting arguments, or other ways of demonstrating the truth of the premise (for more ideas about how to support the truth of premises take a look at the instructor guidance for this week). This section should include at least one scholarly research source. For further information about discovering and including high-quality research take a look at the FindIt@AU Tutorial.
• Explain how your conclusion follows from your premises.
  • For an example of how to complete this paper, take a look at the Week One Annotated Example The Ethics of Elephants in Circuses. Let your instructor know if you have any remaining questions about how to complete this paper.

Introduction

In our society, criminals are seen as the enemy and fundamentally different from good people. Police are often seen as crime fighters in the army that fights the enemy. Good people accept and understand that police are in a war and must be allowed deference in their decision making. Police perception of their role as crime fighters will lead to certain decisions in their use of force, definition of duty, use of deception and coercion, and other decisions.

Police are also seen as public servants, who serve all people, including criminals. In this context, criminals are not a distinct group in that they shop, pay taxes, have kids and parents, and often are one’s next-door neighbors.

Police have limited ability to affect crime rates one way or the other since crime is a complex social phenomenon. The public favors a police approach that protects due process and equal protection over the use of force.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Consider the historical development of police roles and the different ethic systems in a criminal justice community context, and respond to the following:

• Differentiate ethical viewpoints and models of police as crime fighters and public servants.
• Explain, as a criminal justice professional, how these opposing viewpoints may affect your perception of yourself and the public.
• Examine the effect self-perception has on a criminal justice professional’s ethical behavior in carrying out his or her assigned duties.

Special Instructions:

Create a 1 page essay in APA format in according to the instructions above. Use 2 sources for references. Be sure to include in-text citations.
