They are currently creating a government costume panel that requires approval of your costume before going out in public ;)

No white guy holding up a picture of a cowboy?

Oh right - stereotypes only hurt/effect minorities.

Tell you what, I’ll dress like an Arab and the Atabs can dresss like Canadians.

We’ll celebrate Hallowe’en together.

I was going to go a a witch but I might offend the wiccans.
I was going to dress up as a skeleton, but I might offend anorexics.
I was going to dress up as a policeman eating doughnuts, but that might be a crime of impersonation.
I was going to dress up as a fireman, but that could offend fireman.
I was thinking of wearing a mummy custom, but that might offend those Chicago voters who are life impaired.
I was thinking of dressing like a bitter clinger with a gun in one hand and Bible in the other - wait that's how I always dress.

It is offensive to Jewish people, those in the parts industry and to John Kerry.

Well, Sarah Williams, I find you and STARS to be offensive.

You're all so unserious about real life, so lacking perspective, *this* is "the issue" you waste your time on. Not poverty, not civil rights, not abuses of government, not elder care, not health, not conservation, not crime prevention ... for you it's Halloween costumes!

I don't even like Halloween hype, never did a Halloween party as an adult and haven't donned a Halloween costume since about 6 yrs old. but even I realize it's just Halloween.

I’m thinking of going out dressed up as Sarah Williams, president of STARS, but I’m having a bit of a problem putting together a flaming a**hole costume.
