Walter: Although cigarette smoking is legal, it should be banned on all airline flights. Cigarette smoking in the confines of an aircraft exposes nonsmokers to harmful secondhand smoke that they cannot avoid.
Which one the following principles, if established, would justify the proposal put forth by Walter?
(A) People should be prohibited from engaging in an otherwise legal activity would unavoidable expose others to harm.
(B) An activity should be banned only if most situations in which a person engaged in that activity would inevitably expose others to harm.
(C) A legal activity that has the potential for causing harm to others in certain situations should be modified in those situations to render it harmless.
(D) People who regularly engage in an activity that has the potential for harming others when that activity takes place in certain situations should be excluded from those situations.
(E) If an activity is legal in some situations in which a person’s engaging in that activity could harm others, then that activity should be legal in all situations
The more you suffer before the test, the less you will do so in the test! :)

Why oh why will no one listen to the advice given almost universally by the experts:

The LSAT is NOT a good source of practice for the GMAT.

This question, for example, is a "principle" question - one that you will almost certainly never see on the GMAT. The LSAT has many different question types than does the GMAT and, even when those question types collide, LSAT stimuli are often written in a substantially different style (and test different concepts) than GMAT ones.

So, while I'm happy to confirm that (A) is indeed the correct choice, my advice is not to worry about this question at all (unless you're studying for the LSAT!).
