**"Everyone should have the right to marry the one they love"**

**--This example offers reason & evidence as well as facts to back up the evidence.** You're right Tina this argument has allot of reasons and evidence. With the facts to back it up. Marriage is a basic human right, and a individual choice. I would be likely to march with you on this one. Rene
 * -I support the Gay Rights Movement, I marched with my daughter, Melissa and her girlfriend Brianna at this years Southern Maine Pride Parade in June at Monument Square.**

**This is my example of persuasion [|NOOK]**
**BEST** FASTEST **LIGHTEST** AMAZING "Scary good" "I could burst into song" "A grand slam" "Out of this world"

--This example uses bold words (best, fastest, lightest) to describe their product, persuading you to believe it is AMAZING!

-I like the idea of streaming movies, reading books and magazines, playing games, and having unlimited apps. . . but I believe I have all of that on my iPhone.

__PROPAGNDA__. . . This is my example of propaganda [|BREAST MILK IS BEST!]**

=== ** --This example goes on to say that breastfeeding is "imperative for anyone interested in protecting our children and our environment to do whatever possible to support, protect, and promote breastfeeding. It goes on to trashes baby formula . . . "artificial baby milk production pollutes our land, air, and water and uses up natural resources. It also causes the deaths of one and a half million babies every year and ill health in countless others." ** === === ** -I breast fed all my children. If a friend asked me I'd say I enjoyed the experience; enjoyed it so much I did it over and over. I wouldn't press anyone by saying, 'you must breastfeed, its the only way'. My daughter Christina did ask me about my experience when she was pregnant and considering the option. ** === Having breast feed all my babies I believe nursing is a natural way to bond with your baby.It was for me a truly great experience. And if possible for new mothers to have this choice it's worth taking. Rene ** ==================================================================== **

Thi seems to be persuasion as it tells but also uses coersions that are hard to prove on paper.HT The people who smoke to much marijuana are to busy hustling and dealing to get into anything but there own oppinion or propaganda.HT
 * This site to me is Persuasion[| Why Eat Organic.Net] **
 * According to the legal definition organic food is food from plants and animals that is produced without the use of synthetic fertilizers, artificial pesticides, herbicides, antibiotics, growth hormones, feed additives or genetically modified organisms. **
 * This site is a good one for Propaganda[| effectsofmarijuana.com] **
 * This site has allot of different reasons for the effects of marijuana. Such as short term, long term, if your male or female, how much taken, how strong the marijuana is, how it effects the brain, lungs and blood pressure. **

Also about the lack of finding aanothe person enough ikeyou to carry on a conversation with.HT
 * This site has Arguments about gay marriage[] **
 * Many people continue to believe that homosexuality is about nothing but sex, considering it to be merely a sexual perversion. The realty is that homosexuality is multidimensional and is much more about love and affection. **

[|http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/3041440/#45523268] == I think this is augmentative because some people don't find financial infidelity to be a problem within marriages. Studies show that you should have 3 bank accounts to have a smooth marriage (yours, his, household) they say that would cut down the negativity in a marriage. ==

Persuasion -
[]

This site is an advertisement on hair products. They say that they make your hair shiny and 5x stronger than it was before you started using the product.
This site really goes a long way to persuade buyers. Having coupon after coupon for all their products. Even a testimonial from a guy who says he saw results. I've used this product before and although I did like the fragrance it had can't say that I have any long lasting results from using it. Rene

Propaganda -

KRISTINA:

[|Propaganda] This is a video on youtube convincing people to pay their income taxes using Disney characters to make it seem comical while still getting the serious point across.

[|Persuasive] This website gets people to buy bags that are "specifically" designed with their needs in mind... the site narrows down the search based on specifics about a persons life, etc. that enables it to choose the perfect bag for their lifestyle.

[|Argument] This is a good example of an argument because both sides are represented in this article on Peta about how people felt their free speech rights were violated when threatened to be charged with trespassing when handing out leaflets in a public area.
