Identify any relevance fallacies in the following passages giving a brief explanation of why the fallacious reasoning is irrelevant to the point at issue.

1."People in Hegins, Pennsylvania, hold an annual pigeon shoot in order to control the pigeon population and to raise money for the town. This year, the pigeon shoot was disrupted by animal rights activists who tried to release the pigeons from their cages. I can't help but think these animal rights activists are the same people who believe in controlling the human population through the use of abortion. Yet, they recoil at a similar means of controlling pigeons. What rank hypocrisy." —Rush Limbaugh

2."Listen, Higgins. I need your vote in the next department election or I may not get elected chair. Remember, if I do get elected, it will be me who decides what hours your classes meet next year."

3."It really gripes me to see Bill Clinton talking about how cigarette smoking is a big contributor to public health costs.

4.You want to know how much you can trust him on that subject? Well, even he himself admits to smoking cigars!"

5.When several people in Harvey's department get new computers, he is annoyed because he is not among them. "I'll tell you what," Harvey says to his wife, "if they want to rip me off by not getting a new computer for me, I'll just rip them off for extra office supplies. They've got a lot of stuff at work we could use around here, and they'll have no way of knowing that it's gone. Turnabout's fair play."

6.No, I do NOT believe that a murderer ought to be allowed to live. No way! Murderers have forfeited the right to live because anyone who murders another person has lost that right.
