Mark: We need to protect Halloween. Halloween is a time for trick-or-treating, a tradition dating back to the middle ages. Today, however, trick-or-treating is being cancelled in some towns. There are people who believe that there are some homes that mean to hurt trick-or-treaters with unsafe candy. While there maybe the occasional guilty party, the news on these incidents has been greatly exaggerated. Additionally the police have put in to place a free process for checking candy. Cancelling trick-or-treating in response to a possible threat that we are prepared for sends the wrong message.
  Greg: Is trick-or- treating worth getting hurt over? It is odd to think that we spend so much time telling children not to take candy from strangers, but then one day a year we tell them the opposite. Now, it is understandable that the fact that we have so many precautions in place, that it may seem like cancelling trick-or-treating is an overreaction. However, no system is perfect. Even if one child gets hurt, that is too many.
So why take that risk for a fun sized piece of chocolate? Which argument has a counter argument?
   A. Both Mark and Greg B. Only Greg C. Only Mark D. Neither Mark nor Greg

Respuesta :

A. Both Mark and Greg

They both back up their claims, address the counter-claims, and try to break down their arguements.
