The Confirmation

1. What it my thesis

Because of irrationality of their decisions, prisoners should not be allowed to vote

2. What types of source am I using to defend my thesis

I used public opinions and some exact articles. 

3. Are my arguments mostly based on evidence, logic or emotion

In fact I think my arguments are mostly based on emotion. Because of today's serious social problems I selected this topic and decided people to remind this topic, However I think appealing to emotion can be also good strategy, Of course, my arguments have some evidences and a little logic.

My Confirmation

 Prisoners always insisted that they are also citizens and have right as a citizen. But I want to say that prisoners already destroyed social contract by committing crimes. Therefore, they must not mention citizen's rights. Also, prisoners were sent to prison by considering that they cannot function as a normal person and make correct thinking. According to one article, prisoners are sent to prison to be monitored, thus allowing them  to vote is too much treatment for them who committed crimes and were sent to prison.
 Furthermore, prisoners should not be believed that they can make also correct thinking. If they can think correctly, did they commit a crime? Of course, there can be some people who say they can commit crime inadvertently. It can be. However, if criminals commit a crime inadvertently, they can get free or be sentenced to less than three years after becoming accepted.
 What's more, candidates may use right to vote of prisoners improperly. If prisoners can vote for public officials, candidates will try to make them cast a vote for them. Then, to make them do that, candidates may suggest favorable laws for prisoners. Finally, criminals will be punished less severely than before, and therefore a crime rate will increase inevitably. It may bring social confusion, and terrible accidents can be reoccur, such as the sinking of Sewol Ferry. Therefore, it is too generous policy to allow prisoners to vote.
