	1	+Dehumanization is the root cause of every other impact – prioritize it as the greatest impact in the round.
	2	+Berube ‘97(David Berube, Ph.D. in Communications and Professor of Communication at South Carolina, "Nanotechnological Prolongevity: The Down Side", NanoTechnology Magazine, June/July 1997, p. 1-6, URL: http://www.cla.sc.edu/ENGL/faculty/berube/prolong.htm)
	3	+This means-ends dispute … most powerful weapon.
	4	+
	5	+Critiquing everyday structural violence is key to combatting dehumanization – the system relies on ignorance to justify genocide. Dehumanization begins in our minds, driven by a securitizing fear of the "other" – police are thus celebrated as hero figures, not in spite of their anti-Black violence, but because of it. Exposing this system and creating a "call to alarm" is key to fight the structural genocide that is hidden in plain sight
	6	+Scheper-Hughes and Bourgois ‘4, (Prof of Anthropology @ Cal-Berkely; Prof of Anthropology @ UPenn) (Nancy and Philippe, Introduction: Making Sense of Violence, in Violence in War and Peace, pg. 19-22)

	8	+
	9	+The Role of the Ballot is thus to vote for the team that best methodologically challenges structural violence.
	10	+
	11	+The Role of the Ballot is best achieved through the marriage of critical theory and concrete analysis – any attempt to address structural problems without this combination invariably fails.
	12	+Keohane ‘98 (Robert. “Beyond Dichotomy: Conversations Between International Relations and Feminist Theory", Duke University. International Studies Quarterly 42, 193-198. 1998. synergy.com/action/showPdf?submitPDF=Full+Text+PDF+2889+KB29anddoi=10.11112F0020-8833.00076.)

	17	+Police brutality is a form of structural violence based on the dehumanization of Black Americans.
	18	+Ragland ’16 (David. "Michael Brown and America’s Structural Violence Epidemic." Common Dreams, 14 Aug. 2014, www.commondreams.org/views/2014/08/14/ michael-brown-and-americas-structural-violence-epidemic. Accessed 3 Nov. 2016.)
	19	+I flew into … this national epidemic.
	20	+
	21	+This structural violence has created a biopolitical police state that we sustain through ignorance and a lack of accountability. This creates concrete conditions of suffering against which there is no defense.
	22	+Whitehead ’16 (John W. "All The Ways You Can Comply And Still Die During An Encounter With Police."

	23	+How do you … suspects and criminals?
	24	+
	25	+Empirical analysis proves that the primary cause of this violence is a lack of accountability.
	26	+DOJ ’14 (United States Department of Justice. "United States Department of Justice" ~"Investigation of the Cleveland Division of Police"~~. US Department of Justice, 4 Dec. 20**14**, www.justice.gov/sites/default/files/crt/legacy/ 2014/12/04/cleveland'summary'12-4-14.pdf. Accessed 2 Nov. 2016.)
	27	+Investigation of the … justify our finding.
	28	+
	29	+Lack of accountability can be attributed directly to qualified immunity – the term “clearly established” has created a condition of absolute immunity, destroying the only recourse against police brutality.
	30	+Chen ’16 (Alan. "Qualified Immunity Limiting Access to Justice and Impeding Development Of The Law". Americanbar.org. N. p., 2016. Web. 1 Nov. 2016.)
	31	+In 2003, the … becoming clearly established.
	32	+
	33	+The Supreme Court’s 2009 ruling in Pearson v. Callahan has made this problem infinitely regressive – it requires that there be legal precedent, but makes it impossible to establish that precedent.
	34	+Chen ’16 (Alan. "Qualified Immunity Limiting Access to Justice and Impeding Development Of The Law". Americanbar.org. N. p., 2016. Web. 1 Nov. 2016.)
	35	+Critics of qualified … denial of certiorari.
	36	+
	37	+The tipping point is now – limiting immunity is critical to stop an irreversible descent into a militarized police state where structural violence is inevitable.
	38	+Whitehead ’16 (John. "Killer Instincts: When Police Become Judge, Jury And Executioner." Huffington Post, 11 Aug. 2016, www.huffingtonpost.com/ john-w-whitehead/killer-instincts-when-pol_b_11407458.html. Accessed 7 Nov. 2016.)
	39	+Any police officer … the average citizen.
	40	+
	41	+Thus I affirm that the United States ought to limit qualified immunity for police officers. In the interest of a stable advocacy, I will defend the Supreme Court overturning the Pearson v. Callahan ruling and reinstating the precedent set by Saucier v. Katz.
	42	+To clarify, this advocacy is a way of meeting the Role of the Ballot – by proposing real world solutions, we bring about concrete analysis of modes of structural violence that creates a starting point for real world action independent of post-fiat solvency, as indicated in both the Scheper-Hughes and Keohane evidence.
	43	+
	44	+C2 – Solvency
	45	+Limiting immunity is key to creating accountability and fighting misconduct while maintaining a reasonability standard.
	46	+Wright ’16 (Sam. "Want to Fight Police Misconduct? Reform Qualified Immunity". Above the Law. N. p., 2016. Web. 18 Oct. 2016.)
	47	+Under Arrest Recently…make it happen.

	49	+Increased accountability solves – fosters trust, improves police performance, and reverses the “us-against-them” mentality that reproduces police violence through cycles of animosity.

	51	+Finally, CDP’s failure … safely and effectively.
	52	+This link turns any DA’s – we improve police performance and decrease the need for lawsuits.

	54	+The Aff best meets the Role of the Ballot – the very act of questioning the system opens the door to real-world change.
