In his speech suggesting that citizens should be armed, Mario noted that if citizens in a bank where a robbery was taking place were all armed with a gun,
they could stop the
robbers and help apprehend them—possibly without even firing a shot—since their
overwhelming force would act as a deterrent. How should we evaluate Mario's use of this
example?
A) He shouldn't make up examples when real examples exist that he could utilize.
B) His example likely would take up too much time, so he should stick to statistics.
C) His hypothetical example is likely more powerful than any actual one he'd find.
D) His hypothetical example needs to represent an action or event that is plausible.
