Preposterous, sir! I have it on good authority from the marriage equality bros that slippery slopes are just fear-mongering. Why would schoolteachers all of a sudden be transing kids just because some tiny, tiny proportion of adults are getting visiting rights at hospitals? Moore's Law--also slippery slopism. As if computers will magically get faster next year just because they did the last n years!
