Diagram each of the following passages, which may contain more than one argument.

California’s “three strikes and you’re out” law was enacted 10 years ago this month (March, 2004). Between 1994 and 2002, California’s prison population grew by 34,724, while that of New York, a state without a “three strikes” law, grew by 315. Yet during that time period New York’s violent crime rate dropped 20 percent more than California’s. No better example exists of how the drop in crime cannot be attributed to draconian laws with catchy names.
