Hey! Here are some more examples:
a) We should be stopping terrorists from operating, as opposed to chasing them after they've attacked.
b)I like professional basketball, as opposed to the college game.
c) He was a realist who believed in practical things as opposed to a theorist who dwells on purely conceptual perspectives.
