Slippery Slope: This is a conclusion based on the premise that if A happens , then eventually through a series of small steps, through B,C, ..., X,Y,Z will happen, too, basically equating A and Z. So, if we don't want Z to occur, A must not be allowed to occur either. Example: If we ban Hummers because they are bad for the environment eventually the government will ban all cars, so we should not ban Hummers
