PERSUASIVE SPEECH

I have to begin this by telling you guys for some reason the flashdrive I was using didn't save my video, so I had to do this blog based on memory and Meg's comments. So, your feedback is also greatly appreciated! Anyway, I was overall very happy with my speech. I feel like i presented some very valid points to the audience, especially the legal standpoints. I would give my speech about a 9/10. I think the emotional standpoint with Justin kind of brought the audience to a little more of a personal thing, because he death really could maybe have been avoided. But, there were a few things I thought I could do better. I thought i could have talked about the significance of Seed magazine and what the magazine really is and how it's a valid source. I also thought I could have maybe used less hand gestures, some may have been unnecessary. But, I was overall happy with what I did do, like good eye contact and good stance. I kept my feet planted. I thought this might change some of the audiences thoughts not necessarily to agree with it but at least just don't not agree with it. I think maybe people will now understand that there is no reason the government can make a law like that. Let me know what you guys think though!
