   trampolines cause injuries to a significant number of people

   Too Strong: tends to17% picked this

   professional supervision of trampoline use tends to reduce the number of

   Person 1 would probably agree to this, since she is insisting on professional supervision. But we don't have a good conflicting idea from Person 2.

   Correct69% picked this

   trampoline use is an activity that warrants mandatory

   Why this is right

   We know Person 1 agrees, because that's her last claim. Person 2's disagreement is supportable by the fact that he downplayed the relative danger of trampolines and reminded us that injuries will happen with or without supervision. He seems to be suggesting that we need not worry quite so much as Person 1 is worrying, and that we need not always have professional supervision.
