===Accident===
 +
The fallacy of accident occurs when a generalization is inappropriately applied to an individual. A fallacy of accident follows the form:
 +
 +
*Some P are Q
 +
*R is in P
 +
*Therefore R is Q
 +
 +
For example: "You are from [[Ohio]], which is a [[red state]], so you must be a [[Republican]]".
