Together they climbed up to the center of the island, where the trees were thick and high. She showed him the graves, and they s
tood quietly together and were careful where they set their feet. Then back up the shore and to the south end of the island, where shingled one- and two-room houses clamped themselves to the rocks like oysters, glad to be there and not needing anyone's say-so. In front of almost all of them was a dory or two, some overturned, some pulled up long ago for caulking or patching. Near them, half-moon lobster traps bleached under the heat of the sun, the salt dried to white streaks along their boards, their rope netting stiff and a bit ragged. High dune grass hid the paths up to the houses—in fact, almost hid the chopping block one man was using to split his cordwood. Which details of the setting hint that the story takes place long ago?

The conflict is that Singapore’s leader defended Michael Fay, a man who had done vandalism. It supports the author’s argument because he is not being accountable for committing a which is not okay. The law should be enforced fairly.
