There may be one argument or more than one argument in each of the following passages. Paraphrase the premises and conclusions (or use diagrams if that is helpful) to analyze the arguments found in each passage.

The town of Kennesaw, GA passed a mandatory gun ownership law, in 1982, in response to a handgun ban passed in Morton Grove, IL. Kennesaw’s crime rate dropped sharply, while Morton Grove’s did not. Criminals, unsurprisingly, would rather break into a house where they aren’t at risk of being shot. . . . Criminals are likely to suspect that towns with laws like these on the books will be unsympathetic to malefactors in general, and to conclude that they will do better elsewhere. To the extent that’s true, we’re likely to see other communities adopting similar laws so that criminals won’t see them as attractive alternatives.
