Answer:

The fallacy found in the argument is:

e. slippery slope.

Explanation:

A fallacy is a flawed way of reasoning that ends up invalidating an argument. In the paragraph we are analyzing here, the type of fallacy used is called slippery slope.

Slippery slope is a reasoning that, from little evidence, develops a whole sequence of events that get more and more serious. It often ends with a catastrophic consequence. In this case, the speaker goes from a child wanting a slingshot to that child, in the future, owning several different types of heavy weapons.

presented  below the threshold of a person's conscious awareness 

Subliminal stimulus is sensory stimulation at the threshold of a person's conscious sensory perception. Thus, such stimulus cannot be consciously heard or seen. An example would be quickly flashing an image so that a person is not able to consciously process the image and is thus unaware of having seen it.

Despite bypassing a person's conscious awareness, subliminal stimuli have been shown to still activate certain parts of the brain.
