18. Editorialist: In all cultures, it is almost universally
accepted that one has a moral duty to prevent
members of one's family from being harmed.
Thus, few would deny that if a person is known
by the person's parents to be falsely accused of a
crime, it would be morally right for the parents to
hide the accused from the police. Hence, it is also
likely to be widely accepted that it is sometimes
morally right to obstruct the police in their work.
The reasoning in the editorialist's argument is most
vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that this argument
(A) utilizes a single type of example for the purpose
of justifying a broad generalization
(B) fails to consider the possibility that other moral
principles would be widely recognized as
overriding any obligation to protect a family
member from harm
(C) presumes, without providing justification, that
allowing the police to arrest an innocent
person assists rather than obstructs justice
(D) takes for granted that there is no moral
obligation to obey the law
(E) takes for granted that the parents mentioned in
the example are not mistaken about their
child's innocence
