BigFoot outline

Chris Johnson 

Attention Getter- how we are all here talking about the same thing but it doesn’t matter I’m still nervous as heck  

Intro/Cred- I'm Chris Johnson and cred goes to Vrooman and the use of his chart.  

Thesis- The witness tries to get us to fall for her story with the bad smell and some “red eyed” creature she has no idea was in the woods but really come on bigfoot isn't real. I was going to show how she attempted but in the end failing   

BODY-  

Presumptions- The likely 

Cum hoc- Two things that happened at the same time must have a causal relationship. 

• So the witness had her friends are at the campgrounds and needed to use the restrooms, so they needed to go out to the outhouse and when they had got there the witness saw something that seemed to have “red eyes” and smelled really bad that had spread out through the campgrounds.  

Facts/Truth- Supposed  

• The first time the witness went to use the restroom with her daughter it was to dark to see anything clearly an when she had spotted the “red eyed” creature she wasn't sure what it could have been. But the next morning she went back to see if anything was there and looking back where she saw the creature, she believed it as about 7-8 feet tall 

Example –Single  

Post Hoc- A thing that happens before another thing caused that.  

“They came back and everyone was talking out how horrible the area around the outhouse smelled and we laughed saying it was close to the end of season and about time to clean out the vault toilet” 

• This is an example because she had seen something the “red eyed” creature had done. When the witness spotted the creature and the creature did a quick movement of moving into a crouch position trying to avoid getting seen fully.  

Appeal to Force/Fear-   

When the witness was heading down a trail to find the outhouse and use the restroom, her and her daughter finally spotted the outhouse with their flashlight. She had also had red eyes staring right back at her. When that had happened, she didn’t have the urge to use/go to the restroom anymore and her next move was to walk back up to camp “rather quickly”.  

Conclusion –
