Read this paragraph from a rhetorical text that argues that hate speech should be regulated.

What is most likely the warrant the writer is expressing
in this paragraph?

[S]oldiers' families, shoppers and workers are protected
from troubling speech. People of color, women walking
down public streets or just living in their dorm on a
college campus are not. The only way to justify this
disparity is to argue that commuters asked for money
on the way to work experience a tangible harm, while
women catcalled and worse on the way to work do not
-as if being the target of a request for change is worse
than being racially disparaged by a stranger.

O The writer is assuming all readers are familiar with
the phenomenon of verbal assault.

O The writer thinks it is ridiculous that the First
Amendment has been regulated to protect soldiers'
families.

O The writer is assuming that readers will identify with
soldiers' families, shoppers, and workers.

O The writer would like the audience to take action
against catcallers and racists.
