Yet Democrats/Liberals have no problem with this go-to decoration during their so-called "peaceful" rallies I didnt hear one complaint. What a joke! Lol

its soon Halloween and for fun... the hypersensitive SJWs need to calm the hell down and find something worthwhile to crusade against..this isnt one of those things.

the inner city gangs killing each other would be something worthwhile to crusade against.

The ones complaining are the perpetually offended.

This one was in the front yard?

Private property, no violation of the non-aggression principle, move on.

I see both sides of this issue but I don't think it should be a big issue.

Here's the thing, we keep these things going by insisting people who are far removed from it feel bad. Look at the reaction to this, someone whats the entire neighborhood to go through "sensitivity training". Why? At some point the past is going to be meaningless to those in the present and future and declaring something offensive in perpetuity isn't doing anyone any good. It's an uphill battle that gets steeper with every passing year. There are going to be people who don't know and don't care about historical issues of all sorts and I don't know that it's the best use of our time and resources to try to carry it forward.

Some people will never learn, just don't do such displays. Why is that so hard to understand?

Not very smart thing to do, hanging effigies of what seems to be black men, pretending they were simply ghosts.

Last I checked, a Halloween ghost has been traditionally cartoonist, incorporeal, unassuming spirits simply a sheet with a roundish blob at the top, to represent a head, it was not even recognizable as a human head.
