Agreed on (B).

***C is the trap answer always used by GMAC to deceive us. Most out of town/country/similiar comparisons are ususally out of scope and therefore incorrect.

Remember this: Out of town = out of scope

Why not E guys..
Think of a scenario where in Police brutality cases have increased and this has led to fear among the criminals due to which the crime rates have gone down..
This gives us another cause that the new law is not responsible for the decrease in crime..
Anything wrong with my logic???

Perhaps there could have been a 50% increase in police brutality rates, but such statistics could have been offset by a 200% decrease in burgaries and a 700% decrease in armed robberies.

Also, consider that maybe just 2 police officers were assaulted in the year prior to introducing the draconian "big brother" measures. That equates to only 3 officers getting punched in the jaw most probably due to the mounting frustration of humiliated Jamestown residents. 8-)

OA please.
