Read the passage from the opinion of the court in Dred Scott v. Sandford, written by Justice Taney. The question before us is, w

hether the class of persons described in the plea in abatement compose a portion of this people, and are constituent members of this sovereignty? We think they are not, and that they are not included, and were not intended to be included, under the word "citizens" in the Constitution, and can therefore claim none of the rights and privileges which that instrument provides for and secures to citizens of the United States. On the contrary, they were at that time considered as a subordinate and inferior class of beings, who had been subjugated by the dominant race, and, whether emancipated or not, yet remained subject to their authority, and had no rights or privileges but such as those who held the power and the Government might choose to grant them. What fallacy can you identify and discredit to develop a counterclaim to this claim?
the idea that citizens have rights and privileges that are guaranteed in the Constitution

the idea that noncitizens cannot claim certain rights and privileges in the Constitution

the idea that the plaintiff considers himself a citizen and therefore has rights and privileges

the idea that African American people are inferior based on perceptions from an earlier time

Answer: the idea that African American people are inferior based on perceptions from an earlier time.

A fallacy is defined as "a mistaken belief, especially one based on unsound argument". In this case, the fallacy that would help develop a counterclaim to this case is the idea that African American people are inferior based on perceptions from an earlier time

Inga [223]

Answer:

....

...

Gibert stares at the top of the mountain.

"This is my life, huh."

Gilbert was living in the afterlife. He has died many times in his previous lives.

"How utterly, utterly boring. Every life I live, I get this. Boring."

Little did Gibert know...that this was his last and only life on Earth.

<em>Gilbert was planning on dying. So he could be reborn.</em>

But that was the biggest mistake in his life.
