The standard ones offend me. Can I report them?

This is SOOOO mid century Soviet Union.

[Hodar]

So, as Glen Beck would ask “What law was broken?”

Uniforms of obnoxious and arrogant cops are an insult to the Police force, (and offend a reasonable man’s sense of justice)so can we demand that those cops who take it upon themselves to force others to drop their costume, remove their uniforms?

[EggsAckley]

Wonder if my elephant costume will be offensive?

[Pollster1]

The Department of Public Safety at Syracuse, would report offensive costumes and “file a judicial complaint” and “likely require them to remove it.”

That saves a lot of money on beer at Halloween parties. Isn't the main reason for beer to make it easier to talk the girls into removing their costumes?

[Mr. Right Now]

Who decides what’s offensive?

[ml/nj]

I wonder if burqas would be considered offensive (for a day).

I guess it depends on the size of your trunk

[Tax Government]

At what does the right to have a pre-conceived opinion, i.e., to have bias, become a clear free-speech issue? The communists have been dancing around the edges of free speech, trying to marshall opinion and enact laws against it.

Discrimination used to be a good thing — the ability to make a distinction. Now, the entire word has been tainted, we are told. I, and my multi-racial friends, are proud to be discriminating, meaning, able to discriminate the good and bad.

it would be fun if the person wearing an “offensive” costume was stark naked underneath it and stripped off the costume in public.

[massgopguy]

What it it’s really a Muslim woman under the Burqa?

COSUTME: Obama face with Hitler moustache and a Nazi uniform. That’s what they used to do to Bush.

What about a whole parade of Obama-Hitlers? 200 of them, Goosestepping down the main street, their arms raised in salute, and giving the old “Sieg Heil!!” “Sieg Hel!!”

Cue Mel Brooks: BOOMBOXES
playing “Springtime for Obama-Hitler”!!!

Would that get their attention?

[240B]

My opinion:

This is all about OBAMA.

[GnuHere]

The Today Show was so desperate to have an Obama costume, they had a black woman dress in a suit. She looked ridiculous. That was the “costume” - a suit and a lame wig. Al Roker was busy being Superman.

I was offended, so I guess I’ll report her. Hello, DOJ?

[FightforFreedomCA]

speaking of...I come into work today and one of the women in our HR department is dressed as a pregnant nun. I hate halloween day at work...

[ml/nj]

What i[f] it’s really a Muslim woman under the Burqa?

Then it wouldn't be a costume.

It's sort of the PC opposite of witches, where witch costumes are okay but real witches would be burned at the stake. (Except for HRC.)

Remember, Syracuse U. is the school who self-banned our own orangeman, the mighty Saltine Warrior, and replaced him with a stupid orange.
