Question

Hunting whales shouldn't be made an international crime because

some indigenous peoples rely on whale hunting as a way of life.
Which sentence is the most effective concession to this counter-argument?
A. So many species of whales are endangered today that allowing
even indigenous tribes to continue hunting them is out of the
question.
B. Some indigenous peoples hunt whales as a way of life, but that
way of life must change if we truly want to protect the whales. J
OC. Opponents argue that making whale hunting illegal is unfair to
some indigenous peoples, which is why whale hunting should be
legal.
D. While we should make some careful exceptions for certain groups,
whale hunting should be illegal for the vast majority of people.

Answer 1

B. Some indigenous peoples hunt whales as a way of life, but that way of life must change if we truly want to protect the whales.

This response is not only a counter-argument, but it provides a valid reason for indigenous folks to stop whale hunting.
