Mike: Tom did not tell me that I could use his computer, but it would not be wrong for me to use it anyway. Last week Tom used Mary's bicycle even though she had not told him he could use it.
Which one of the following principles, if valid, would most help to justify Mike's reasoning?
(A) Using the possessions of others without their permission is not always theft.
(B) Generally one should tell the truth, but there are cases in which it is permissible not to.
(C) If people have used your property without your permission, it is not wrong for you to use their property without their permission.
(D) It is permissible to treat people in a way that is similar to the way in which they have treated others.
(E) Using another person's property is wrong if the person is harmed by that use.

I marked D:
A) Using the possessions of others without their permission is not always theft.- Out of scope beacause there is no question of theft in Mike's statement
(B) Generally one should tell the truth, but there are cases in which it is permissible not to. - Out of scope. The argument is not about telling the truth but about informing the person before using his/her property
(C) If people have used your property without your permission, it is not wrong for you to use their property without their permission. - Does not support Mike's argument
(D) It is permissible to treat people in a way that is similar to the way in which they have treated others.- Correct
(E) Using another person's property is wrong if the person is harmed by that use - Out of scope

I marked D because the statement clearly states that Mike is using Tom's computer even without his permission because Tom used Mary's bicycle without her's, hence treating Tom the same way as he treated Mary.
