Please do not spread when you go against me. I find it funny how people always ask the judge if speed was okay, and totally neglect the other team. Spreading is not okay because it totally excludes people with (dis)abilites, even though I don't have any (dis)abilites that does not allow me to process information at incredibly quick paces, I do not understand anything when people spread and freak out during the rounds, which just results in a shit debate. I love debate because I view debators from other teams as my friends. I don't place lots of emphasis on the ballot rather on my bonds that I make with my fellow LD debators so I do try to make my rounds as inclusive as possible and I wish for you to do the same for other debators.

Contention 1: Sheehan and Duffie
The supreme court ruled in favor of granting the police qualified immunity, who shot Teresa Sheenah, a japanese women with (dis)abilites. The courts left the question whether ADA applied to police arresting people with (dis)abilites, unquestioned and that opens up for mass police brutality upon people with (dis)abilites and letting the police get away with it by simply claiming Qualified Immunity.

Mr.s Davis is a women with mental (dis)abilites, she was driving with a suspended license due to lack of insurance. And the police analysed her license place (with the handicapped sigma right next to it) and found her status of the license. They wrongly used excessive force to pull her over, literally dragging her body out of her car and causing her to have a panic attack. Even though the 10 circuit courts, affirmed Davis claims they allowed some of the officers qualified immunity still. IF ADA were applied to this, then the police could have accommodated her arrests and would have prevented the bodily harms inflicted on Mrs. Davis.
United States court of appeals, 10 circuit  2016
On review of summary judgment... transferred to jail

We affirm and our advocacy is that The Supreme Court of the United States should limit qualified immunity by adopting the Ninth Circuit's decision on Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act's applicability to arrest situations in Sheehan v. City and County of San Francisco as a legal precedent for all circuits on the next available test case.
This basically means that police have to provide accomodations when arresting people with (dis)abilities. Like Crisis teams in the case of Sheehan. And if the police fail to do so then when they are sued for damages under ADA then any police claims for QI will be dropped. 

Contention 2: Solvency

This is key to solve.

Value: Anti-oppression, as defined by protecting the rights of human
Criterion: Minimizing Structural Violence 

Minimizing structural violence is essential to reaching anti-oppression; institutions are key perpetrators of violence upon marginalised groups. 

 We need a new lens; the resolution talks about retributive justice and qualified immunity as a punishment. The solution to violations shouldn’t be about paying back a mere sum of money or other types of punishments. Justice needs a radical redefinition;a restoration of peace, not a retribution of violence on the offender. This is necessary for any gains because retributive justice focuses around the state, and draws away peace for victims and offenders.
Zehr 90 { Howard, Distinguished Professor of Restorative Justice at Eastern Mennonite University, american criminologist, Changing Lenses : A New Focus for Crime, pg 181}

In this search,... repair, reconciliation, and reassurance.

Thus the methodology: We advocate for a radical redefinition of justice and a doing away with contemporary punishment, Justicia. To clarify, we want  for systems of punishment to be oriented around the victim and the offender, not the state, and we want to transform the method of justice;  from punishment to collaboration and compromise. 

Hence: QI should be done away with and replaced by a statutory system where the police would be able to understand the victim on a human-human biases.

Crime is a result of violations on the offender. Therefore restorative justice is the only way to prevent these things to happen in the first place; this enables the victims to get help and prevent further crime. The framework of retributive justice leads to an impacts of further enforcing a deepening cycle of crime and ignoring the needs of the survivors.

Because I am involved in mankind,
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;

V:  Protecting the most vulnerable to Police Violcence

Here’s a quote by Nelson Mendela “A Nation should not be judged by how it treats its highest citizens, but it's lowest ones”

C: Intersectionality

The Value in this debate is to resist structural violence against the most vulnerable – this requires intersectionality. You must resist structural violence against the most vulnerable before you can consider any alternative: only this concrete analysis of  trans, queer, race, (dis)abilites, and the multitude of the intersections is able to present the impossible demands that will resist assimilation or extermination.

Advocacy: The Supreme Court of the United States should limit qualified immunity by adopting the Ninth Circuit's decision on Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act's applicability to arrest situations in Sheehan v. City and County of San Francisco as a legal precedent for all circuits on the next available test case.

Contention 1: Excessive Force
Qualified Immunity erases accountability and hazes the line between excessive and un-excessive  force; hence opening up a space for mass police violence, particularly violence inflicted upon PoC, People with (dis)abilites, queer people,  trans people, and people within these intersections.
Stefan 2016 { Lindsey De; “’No Man Is Above the Law and No Man Is Below It:’ How Qualified Immunity Reform Could Create Accountability and Curb Widespread Police Misconduct;” (Apparently 2017 LUL); Seton Hall University, Seton Hall Law, Law School Student Scholarship, Accessed 2016, ,http://scholarship.shu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1861andcontext=student_scholarship}

Of course, the most outwardly evident ... conduct violated the Fourth Amendment.”113 

Contention 2: An analysis of police violence upon intersectional bodies.
The supreme court ruled in favor of granting the police qualified immunity, who shot Teresa Sheenah, a japanese women with (dis)abilites. The courts left the question whether ADA applied to police arresting people with (dis)abilites and that opens up for mass police brutality upon people with (dis)abilites, espcialley intersectional people with (dis)abilites, and letting them get away with it by simply claiming Qualified Immunity.
Liptak 15 { ,Adam,  covers the United States Supreme Court and writes "Sidebar," a column on legal developments. A graduate of Yale Law School, he practiced law  "Supreme Court Sides With Police in a Shooting, and Against a State on Taxes," New York Times, http://www.nytimes.com/2015/05/19/us/supreme-courts-rules-on-a-police-shooting-state-taxes-and-prisoners-lawsuits.html?_r=1®ister=facebook }
The court sided with two San Francisco police... to address the question.

Again another case; Lincoln District Courts ruled in favor of the police who used excessive violence against Leroy Duffie, a black man with physical (dis)abilites. It is clear that qualified immunity gives the police the right to inflict gratuitous violence upon intersectional bodies and still get away with it.
Johnson 2016 {Riley Johnson reports on breaking news and public safety issues in Lincoln and southeast Nebraska., http://journalstar.com/news/local/911/appeals-court-lower-court-erred-in-dismissing-lawsuit-brought-by/article_d165d99e-3bd1-5d90-9737-53b72c7c9d9f.html}
He was wrongly mistreated by the police ... to have saved him from,” he said. 

Analysis: We couldn’t find any cases of trans poc’s w/ (dis)abilites and that could be due to the fact that trans voices are already so erasured. Our anaylytic is that if a trans person faces a particular kind of oppression and and they are also another intersection of identity then the oppression will be more quanitive, (as opposed to qualfitive). These two examples are indicative of a broader picutre of qualfiied immunity; wherein intersectional bodies are faced with enormous amounts of excessive force and then the police could just claim QI and get away with it.

Part 2: The Haunting

I contend that limiting free speech, aims to erase the history of trans-oppression. Either it directly censors the voice of trans individuals or enacts minimal surface level reforms that hides transphobia- this takes away effective methods of trans liberation and feeds into the hauntological suffering that we face.

The university regulates how trans people navigate academic spaces- possessing us and our narratives

Trans erasure is the ghost that continually haunts us. Our struggles for rights have been erased- look through any textbook and you won’t find anything about the Compton Kitchen Riots, what about the Pink Panthers, not even the STAR Organization.

Part 2: The Haunting

I contend that limiting free speech, aims to erase the history of trans-oppression. Either it directly censors the voice of trans individuals or enacts surface level reforms that “protect” trans people- Although a seemingly harmless idea- it results in erasing the remnants of visible trans oppression, or in other words not facing the ghosts of trans oppression as they are- this takes away effective methods of trans liberation and feeds into the hauntological suffering that we face.

There is a spectre haunting university - the spectre of free speech. All of the old powers of university have entered into an unholy alliance to exorcise this spectre: Dean and Professor, Student and Staff, Transphobe and Transwoman. The specter of the past haunts the present, refusing to listen to it causes gratuitous violence and continued suffering to the trans community. The state’s ability to ignore the haunt allows necropolitical control over the distinction between life and death.

Part 3: Exorcism
Thus the advocacy: I affirm the resolution as a method of monumentalization for trans entities who have been lost to the effects of western re-writing of history, the 1AC is a call to respect the haunt by affirming a world where we acknowledge and face the historical trans erasure- Only then can we effectively react to these ghosts instead of ignoring them and ignoring their haunts. 

Rather than suppress the hauntings of trans oppression- we search for these ghosts. We let them in and treat them as “arrivants”, this is key to solvency because we no longer want to suppress these ghosts but rather “let them be demanded of” and then only can we respond to them effectively.

The standard is creating space to grasp voices that were always silenced, allowing haunting to finally be perceived.

Part 1: The Ghosts
Trans erasure is the ghost that continually haunts us. Our struggles for rights have been erased- look through any textbook and you won’t find anything about the Compton Kitchen Riots, the Pink Panthers, not even the STAR Organization.

AND Even our own queer community has historically silenced our voices, our struggle. In other words it’s the LGB community and the “T is silent”.
Ginelle 14 {Leela , THE HISTORICAL OPPRESSION OF TRANSGENDER PEOPLE WITHIN THE LGBTQ MOVEMENT,http://www.pqmonthly.com/historical-oppression-transgender-people-within-lgbtq-movement/20426}
It’s commonly known ... “The GGGG community.”

The hauntings hollow to this day- trans harassment, bullying, murder is veiled and hidden from society.
Bilbrey 15 {Melanie L., Student at Southern Illinois University Carbondale,Transgender Identity and Media in Historical Perspective, pg 26, binary lang}
These are issues ... the United States. 

In this debate round, the ghost comes back to haunt us. This apparition now manifests once again and threatens to erase the visibility trans oppression from the academic spaces, themselves. 

Part 2: The Haunting

I contend that limiting free speech, aims to erase the history of trans-oppression. Either it directly censors the voice of trans individuals or enacts minimal surface level reforms that hides transphobia- this takes away effective methods of trans liberation and feeds into the hauntological suffering that we face.

The state’s ability to ignore the haunt allows necropolitical control over which voices gets heard and which stay silenced.

Some may argue ...bodies as ungrievable.

Part 3: Exorcism
Rather than continually suppress these ghosts of trans oppression- we perform an exorcism to let them in ;to respond to their haunts

We stand for one another as a community  and effectively fight against the ghosts of transphobia- Radical activism and radical community is how we respond to these ghosts.

Prefer for 3 reasons:
Inclusion of voices allow for heightened education- this crucial to fighting the rooted injustices of society

As an introduction ... and gendered inequalities.

B) Unfettered inclusion of all voices is necessary for truth seeking- we need to understand what is actually so of the world if we are to seek for the truth
C) A prerequisite to an anti-oppression pedagogy would be the inclusion of all viewpoints- only when we know the how the world is oriented, can we work to better it

Historically universities have erased trans voices, masking our oppression and relegating trans individuals to a ghostly status

Affirming the resolution means that you affirm protests- This is how we react to these ghosts - with radical activism- Standing with one another and fighting together regardless if you're trans or cis- and rather than let some bureaucratic system choose what’s heard and what isn’t we take action into our own hands.

It doesn’t matter if we ever get any legal success. When we stand up and fight with one another there are affective bonds connecting each individual. In this act, there appears a radical community where trans voices are finally heard

Therefore I end this exorcism, urging a vote towards liberation for all
