tar with the same brush

    0.04 sec.
tar somebody with the same brush
to believe wrongly that someone or something has the same bad qualities as someone or something that is similar (usually passive) I admit that some football supporters do cause trouble but it's not fair that we're all being tarred with the same brush.
See also: brush, same, tar
