GLADIATORS: AN UNNACEPTABLE SPORT For too many years’ gladiator fights have been considered normal in our roman way of life. Forcing innocent people to die for the pretext of public entertainment is not a practice that should be continued. This inhumane practice doesn’t consider the importance of human life and instead focusses on entertainment that is both free and barbaric. QUOTE FORM A GLADIATOR HATOR “The other day, I chanced to drop in at the midday games, expecting sport and wit and…
Celebrities can have a significant influence on consumer choices because they are easily recognized by a target audience. For example, Taylor Swift, famous musician, is a celebrity who rose to fame with her song ‘Blank Space’ and is promoting Apple Music and Spotify.

While both of the writers show compelling arguments, parents and children act completely different ways than what is assumed of them. Parents do not always show excessive pride for their children nor do they keep them cut off from the…

outrage if a sports team, professional or college, decided to have a mascot that mocked African Americans, Latinos, Jews or the disabled. Most would not find it funny or witty, as it violates the bounds of respect and decency by their very nature (Armour, 2016).
