Originally posted by Davo: So...am I wrong? There is no belief in a conspiracy among the Piston's fan base? You're trying to say that it's silly for me to generalize when pretty much every Pistons fan I've encountered thinks there's a conspiracy.
I guess I shouldn't assume that Islamic terrorists might be Arab either.
that's not what you said. you are generalizing for the most of the fan base from a very limited sample. if you are amending your statement to say "some of the pistons fan base believes it's a conspiracy", then yes, i will agree.
i'll re-quote you so as to spare you the time of trying to say that you never said these things.

Originally posted by Davo: Are you a part of the Pistons fan base? I think you and others who have participated in this thread reflect the base well. Plus, I've read and heard plenty of comments from both professionals and fans that suggest Pistons fans believe there is, in fact, a Vast Ref Wing Conspiracy.
and your analogy to racial profiling is a very obvious fallacy of questionable analogy. let me re-phrase it for you.
are most islamic terrorist arab? yes. are all arabs terrorists? no.
are most of the people who think there is an officiating conspiracy pistons fans? yes. do all (or most) piston fans think there is a conspiracy? no.
let me know if you need any further assistance with understanding philosophical logic. i'd be happy to tutor you via pm.
