Reference no: EM13175314

Reconstruct the following two arguments in standard form so that they follow well-formed patterns. State whether each argument is valid or cogent, and state the specific pattern for each argument.

1. Some people say that watching violent TV programs causes people to behave violently themselves. I don't think they are right. My nephew watches lots of violent programs, but he never behaves violently. The oppents of these shows probably just don't want to admit that they like them themselves.

2. I'm tired of listening to the arguments of the pacifists. They may have good intentions, but they are just afraid to stand up for their country. My point is that we should have a strong military. Our country might not survive without one.
