It's called stereotyping.

Reminds me of when for decades you never heard the word "Mafia" at the movies, but only "Syndicate" because when people say "Mafia," they're sure as hell weren't talking about Danish-Americans.

Hey remember a few years back when the media went nuts over those extremist-Mormon fringe compounds being raided? Reminds me whenever outsiders bring up those lunatic Snake Handling Christians in the South (there's a local church in Carter County), as if it's a common regional cultural fabric.

Ever notice how every group, ethnic or religious or regional, seems to usually have the same # of fucking crazy/moronic fringe folks?
