Target Anyone who's walked down Santa Monica Boulevard on Halloween night is well aware there are plenty of tasteless costumes out there.
From over-sexed nuns to ... well, we can stop our list of examples at over-sexed nuns. That pretty much sums up tasteless costumes.
Well, this year, you may notice a new tasteless costume in Los Angeles: The "Illegal Alien."
"He didn't just cross a border, he crossed a galaxy!" according to the costume's description. "He's got his green card, but it's from another planet! Sure to get some laughs, the Illegal Alien Adult Costume includes an orange prison-style jumpsuit with 'Illegal Alien' printed on the front, an alien mask and a 'green card.'"
L.O.L.!....Bite me!
Too bad!
Go cry to Calderon.
I don’t know - I find it amusing!
People looking for something to be offended by.
If you are offended by it, you must be one of ‘em....
Of course, the sacreligious theme of over sexed nuns is not considered objectionable by the L.A. Times. Nor are the other costumes that play on a sexual theme.
And remember, the term “illegal alien” is not approved of by the MSM. The approved politically correct term is “undocumented immigrant”. To them, illegal alien is akin to the “N” word for black people.
The funniest phrase in any language is:
That’s not funny!
“Immigrants Not Amused by ‘’Illegal Alien’’ Halloween Costume”
How about, “Unemployed American Citizens Not Amused by Illegal Aliens Getting Employment”
Please note (again), the above aren't my thoughts, but thoughts expressed by a lot of the same people who are whining about this costume now.
For example, in this libtard blog:
When you hear someone refer to an undocumented immigrant as an “illegal alien,” do you feel that this phrase in any, shape, or manner dehumanizes the person in question? Moreover, do you feel that the phrase may be intended to dehumanize the immigrant?
Now that somebody has actually created a costume built upon the rhetoric, they are still whining.
They just need to stick a sock in it and stop their incessant whining.
What a stupid headline. Who cares whether they are amused or not? They should not be here in the first place!
“Moreover, do you feel that the phrase may be intended to dehumanize the immigrant?”.....
Typical “touchy feely” libtard thinking....
Since immigrants arn’t amused, I’M AMUSED!
Yup.
That's what so torques me off regarding these idiots. They should CELEBRATE somebody putting this costume out: See, this is an illegal alien. In the real world, they are undocumented workers.
But instead, they fall prey to their hyper-sensitivity.
Maybe they would like it better if they changed the face to a mexican so it would be truthful!
Why should immigrants be offended? Illegal “immigrants” aren’t immigrants at all. They’re foreign outlaws.
and now that they’ve drawn attention to it there will be fifty times as many people wearing this one
Neal Boortz mentioned this this AM
“and now that they’ve drawn attention to it there will be fifty times as many people wearing this one”....
Good point!...you bet!
Scary but, there or no documented aliens from space.
Really scary as our nation is overran with illegals, and one may be illegally our president.
LMBO!!
Word has it the space aliens are complaining. “Hey, we don’t drive our spacecrafts drunk, hitting people. We don’t form street gangs or drop anchor babies or crowd the emergency rooms or collect welfare. We don’t go around saying things like, ‘For the aliens, everything; for the earthlings, nothing.’ We are offended by this costume!!”
We sure have an unhappy lot of illegals inside our nation.
If they’re so unhappy, why do the remain here?
Get the F off our soil you ingrates.
drug dealer=undocumented pharmacist
I’m sure there are a lot of tasteless costumes out there, but I am nowhere near to having tasted all of them yet.
No, but they DO use their cellphones and text while driving....(I’ve seen it, I have....really)
While they are clearing off the shelves at Target, I want them to remove the Obama book they are selling in the children’s book section. It is a piece of propaganda that would have made the leaders of the Hitler Youth and Goebbels proud.....
If I could, I’d buy one and ship it to Calderon myself.
Okay. I’ll stop using illegal alien. I will use the more accurate term criminal alien.
No, just say alien, the rest is assumed.
To reiterate what I said in my earlier post, those views were what I’d repeatedly heard from the libs about how we were “insensitive” for using the actual legal term
