I agree with this. All conservatives are not a certain way. However, when viewing groups as a whole, it is often safe to say "This group has a tendency to this or that". I think the danger comes in when we judge and label others without considering that individuals are what makes up groups. On the flip-side, groups as a whole do have tendencies to certain views and problems and I think it is good to discuss and consider those things no matter who the groups are and no matter their beliefs.
