No. In this case there is.

I've had Neal Boortz on the radio in the shop and some woman called him about
some outrageous statement he made about Section 8 housing saying he couldn't
"generalize". There are some people, even if a few, in section 8 housing
that
don't fit his description.

He asked her what he was to do to carry on a talk show and conversation about
the subject. Was he required to identify the each housing complex and say,
"On the first floor what I said applies to 101, 102, 103, but not 104. It
applies to 105 through 111, but not to 112 or 113. Now on the second floor
....."

The "one size fits all" remonstration is just an obfuscation to avoid
addressing a reality.

Because of an information system I wrote and marketed some years back, I had
occasion to do business with a LOT of horse people. A LOT. Then I married
one. And I've been regaled with even more of them ever since. They whole
bunch of them are friggin' insane. Certifiable. Worlds without end, amen!
