Every group or population has them and unfortunately too much of our society is bent toward making any and all minority (not race) issues sound as though they are a general condition when they are not.

Remember the old logical sylligisms?

There are 20 boys in the room.
Johnny is a boy in the room.
Johnny has a hat on.
Therefore all the boys in the room have hats on..........not true!!!!!

We seem to spend so much energy talking about the one boy with a hat on! Or worse, these days why every boy should have a hat on because it is disturbing to Johnny that the others do not have one!!
