The main limitation, then, can be entered into the argument map in blue and in brackets thus:
Realizing there could be some bumps in your argument is important so you can logically explain all sides and make sure you address the “holes” without letting them degrade your whole claim.
In the map, we can put the rebuttal below the counterargument and use the arrow to show it supporting the main claim.
The counter argument and rebuttal shows that there is some merit to the counter argument but their can be alternatives with out just bashing the other side.
Which of these final claims is the overall focus? Arguments sometimes emphasize their main point in the very last sentence, in part to make it memorable. However, the end of the argument can also be a place for the author to go a little beyond their main point and suggest issues for further thought. The phrase "empathy, respect, and offers of help" sounds important, but we should note that the rest of the argument isn’t about how to help migrants.
Making your mark when writing doesn’t always mean getting someone’s opinion to change by what you said but instead can be making them question their own thoughts and values. Getting someone to use their own empathy and respect also furthers your argument and what you are adding to the conversation.
Note that this is a claim of fact about what people would do and how they would feel about it.
Don’t necessarily need to be telling people what to do, this is an example of another circumstance where you would use this type of claim even though you aren’t convincing anyone to do anything but instead making them question for themself.
Claims of policy don’t have to be about dramatic actions. Even discussion, research, and writing are kinds of action. For example, “Americans need to learn more about other wealthy nations’ health care systems in order to see how much better things could be in America.”
Claims apply to other types of writing then just argumentative, even scientists have to be persuasive sometimes.
