The slippery slope.

  Exactly. I hope this is taken as a learning experience by those who are quick to declare any concern about slippery slopes as "fallacious". Sure, some assertions of slippery slopes are fallacious, but others could not be more real.

    The problem with slippery-slope arguments is not that they are slippery, it's that you can't predict the future to know that the assertion will fall off of it. It's a post-hoc problem.

  It's not even slippery. It's a high-powered conveyor-belt. The people in power _know_ this was always their ultimate goal. They don't care about you, or your child's, safety. It's all about amassing more power, more control, more influence.
