In 2016, two-year-old lane graves was wading in the lagoon of an orlando walt disney world resort and watching a family outdoor movie, when an alligator snatched the boy and disappeared. the resort had signs which read "no swimming, deep drop off" posted along the beach area where lane was taken, and his parents were a few feet away when the incident occurred. several hours later, lane's body was discovered about 15 yards from where he was taken by the gator. a disney employee said this was not the first time an alligator had been spotted in the lagoon beach area. if the graves family files a lawsuit against the resort, what theory would best support their claim?

In a sense we’ve come to our nation’s capital to cash a check. when the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the constitution and the declaration of independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every american was to fall heir. this note was a promise that all men—yes, black men as well as white men—would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. it is obvious today that america has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. instead of honoring this sacred obligation, america has given the negro people a bad check, a check that has come back marked “insufficient funds.” but we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. we refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation. and so we’ve come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and security of justice. in this section of the speech, analyze martin luther king’s connection between a defaulted promissory note and the lack of freedom experienced by african americans. which option offers the best analysis? question 3 options: a.mlk creates this analogy to communicate that america has enough freedom for all, but it needs to live up to its promises. b. mlk makes the analogy that america has run out of freedom. not everyone deserves to have it. c.mlk communicates that america should equally distribute funds to all citizens. everyone deserves equal access to the government’s money. d.mlk demonstrates that america is improving in equality and should keep the forward momentum.
