20 problem/solution argument
In a problem/solution argument, you present your reader with a problem and how to solve it. You start by describing the problem, convincing the reader that the problem needs solving, and then giving ways of how to best fix it. A perfect example of this would be the doc one paper that I wrote about police violence in America. In this paper I took the stand and said that there was too much violence against people by the police, which was the problem that needed solving. I used some examples of times where excessive force was used unnecessarily to show the reader that it is a problem that needed solving. The rest of my paper was spent giving many examples on how police currently train, and ways in which they could improve their training process to cut down on excessive violence.

Given the corrupted nature of our political system, I find it highly unlikely that better training will instantly solve all cases of police brutality. The issues in the system go much deeper than police officers overreacting to alleged threats of force, and, as such,is not an issue that is likely to have an impending solution. Sorry to be so negative.
