Thrown out of an FBO...

ROTFLMAO

Yep. I'm one of those damn liberals. I prefer "progressive", but liberal
will do.

Wow, first I "hate FBOs", and now I'm a "bigot"? Soon, you'll be
calling me a "social climber"...

Don't let his comments bother you Jay. His "bigotry" comment is
typical of liberals who are the worst at fomenting racism and poverty
in the USA. Now before you liberals get your panties in a wad, that
is fact, not a generalization.

Do you not need more data points to dispute it?


No. To support a blanket generalization, one needs to survey the entire
population. To refute a blanket generalization, one need only survey a
single member of the population, so long as that member is a
counter-example.



Darn, I hate to jump in here. Most amazing thread on people that are
supposed to have a common interest. But, "entire population?". Is that
what the Nelsen folks do in their surveys? I suspect not. They take
statistically relevant samples.

Every privately owned hotel I have stayed in has been worse than any chain.

You can call it a "stereotype" if you wish. I call it "experience."

Would you like to hear my experience with privately owned hotels vs
chains?

Sure!

Well he didn't say charter pilots never fill the tank, only when the
tank isn't filled, it is charter pilots.

Some are. They have been successful in business by pushing and getting
more than the other guy and getting their way. Now they can afford flying.



shouting to everyone at the lobby that all corporate
pilots

It was charter pilots, somewhat different. And he never said all

"Yeah, the only time the tanks
don't get filled at our place is when charter pilots use our van"

So clearly there could be times charter pilots do fill the van.

Remember that to some people "bigot" means anyone who
doesn't like that you don't buy into their agenda.

Sure it is. But some liberals are not fanatics, just as some conservatives
are not fanatics.

But I think there is a little bit of hypocrisy on both sides...

... like saying "in my experience, Jews are all cheap *******s"?
What's next, Jose? Going to recite a Hitler speech?

You invoked the law, not I.

My point is only that goring somebody's ox is rude, and it doesn't
matter what the ox is.
