To ensure that no group or individuals get offended this Halloween please refrain from any of the following costumes and/ or yard displays.
Bedsheet/Ghost: The NAACP would be offended so that is banned.
Witch: Wiccans will be offended so forget that.
Devil/demon: Fundamentalist christians will be offended, so no.
Person hung from a tree: Again, NAACP will complain. So don't.
Convict: Ex felons should not be made to feel discriminated against.
Gypsy: This is a racial stereotype, so forget it.
Mummy: Egyptians should not have their historical and religious history mocked so that's out.
Samurai/ninja: Stop the racial stereotyping already, kid !!!
Santa: Don't even think it. We don't want the ACLU breathing down our necks.
Barbie:Yeah, and NOW would be all over us. Nope.
Werewolf: Peta will protest so that's banned, too.
Vampire: Hmmm, the white makeup and blood may make EMOs and Goths feel persecuted( even more than usual) so to be safe, no.
Soldier: No flags, no guns, no uniforms. Liberals would freak if they saw you on their doorstep.
Police officer. No, no, no. Some right wingers might think you're coming to take their guns. For the same reason, no nazi or soviet costumes either.
Fireman: This is okay, unless its in New Orleans. They don't like any emergency/ rescue personnel in New Orleans.
Doctor/Nurse. Normally, yes. But with swine flu hysteria and the health care debacle people might get panicked or upset. So uh uh.
Zombie: You might be mistaken for Obama supporters. They might turn the hose on you.
Skeleton: We'll check with the NAACP and get back to you.
Hobo/Tramp: There are so many homeless now they might just give you directions to a shelter. But you can try it.
Angel: The ACLU and fundamentalist christians would both be offended.
Cowboys and Indians: Maybe if they hold hands and carry a peace and love sign.
Hippies: No. many aging baby boomers will try to buy "medicinal herbs" or "medicine" from you.
Eh, this is too complicated. Maybe we'd all just better stay home and watch the World Series. Go Phillies!
Thanks! I just got back from tricking, I soaped my republican local's headquarters windows, gooped their door handles, and spray painted dems rule on their cars! I had a great time!

Man, I'm glad we've got liberals in charge. What can go wrong with children at the helm?
