I've found it quite effective to answer the fallacy about stepping on the OOB line during a throw-in this way: "So you're saying he violated during the throw-in because while he was out of bounds he stepped on the {short pause} out of bounds line? Which is {short pause} out of bounds?"
If they remain unconvinced, then I normally ask, "What about a court that has two foot wide endlines with the school name painted on them. Do you make the thrower go all the way to the other side of the line to throw it in? Can the defender be on the line while he guards the thrower?"
If it doesn't click after that, it's hopeless.
