In "Letter from Birmingham Jail", Martin Luther King JR asks, "isn't this like condemning a robbed man because his possession of money precipitated the evil act of robbery?"

Of what persuasive technique is this excerpt an example?

-rhetorical question
-appeal to conscience
-false analogy
-emotional appeal
