Aren’t fallacious arguments fallacious?
Fallacies: According to me and up to my understanding fallacies are the statements or any argument made by us in debates, for which we don’t have proper reasoning. Fallacies can be true or false either. These are some of the fallacious arguments I found in the script of the film “12 angry men”.
(1)There were 11 votes for guilty. It’s not so easy for me to raise my hand and send a boy off to die without talking about it first.
In this argument he is not sure that the boy is guilty or not he just want to talk, before making any decision. He don’t have proper reason why he is voting against community, maybe he wanted to be special.

In these type of fallacies counter argument are made to make people believe that the original argument is true.
(8)This is not easy. So far, it’s only a feeling I have. A feeling. Perhaps you don’t understand.
Well you can’t make any belief just based on your feeling which obviously other people can’t feel. The argument is fallacious because this don’t have any proper reasoning and formatting too.
(9)How do you like him? It’s like talking into a dead phone.
Well this man is calling the boy guilty just because he don’t like the boy. He is thinking that the boy is bully and that’s why he killed his father, that’s it. He don’t need any evidence to prove the boy guilty.
(10) What are you people talking about? Are you calling the old man a
