Raymond: Although some people claim it is inconsistent to support both freedom of speech and legislation limiting the amount of violence in TV programs, it is not. We can limit TV program content because the damage done by violent programs is more harmful than the decrease in freedom of speech that would result from the limitations enacted by the legislation.
Which one of the following principles, if valid, most helps to justify Raymond’s reasoning?
(A) In evaluating legislation that would impinge on a basic freedom, we should consider the consequences of not passing the legislation.
(B) One can support freedom of speech while at the same time recognizing that other interests can sometimes override it.
(C) When facing a choice regarding the restriction of freedom of speech, we must decide based on what would make the greatest number of people the happiest.
(D) If the exercise of a basic freedom leads to some harm, then the exercise of that freedom should be restricted.
(E) In some circumstances, we should tolerate regulations that impinge on a basic freedom.
