A slippery slope, you say?

  Some real life slopes are actually slippery, and some metaphorical slopes are legitimately so as well. Unless you have some reason to suspect the events at the end of the slope are too farfetched to actually happen, which I don't see any, this is not a "slippery slope fallacy", but a run of the mill prediction about an Overton window opening.
