Today in my argumentation class I attempted to steer the class towards a discussion on victimless crimes and it completely facepalmed because no one other than the professor had the slightest idea wtf I was talking about.
I was trying very hard to explain but kept getting drowned out by mostly girls shouting about how what I was saying made no sense because a crime wouldn't be a crime without a victim and when I brought up examples they just responded with asinine fallacies.
I got the email addresses of a few classmates that I want to work on that I think have the potential to understand.
I know the "philosophy of liberty (http://www.isil.org/resources/introduction.swf)" video touches upon this but it might be a little too much for someone that is completely clueless...
Any suggestions?
