Nobody complained when men dressed up like Spartans from the movie 300.

Nobody complains when someone wears a kilt.

Nobody complains about a toga.

You would be arrested if you did that today.................

[heylady]

I dressed up.

[Red Badger]

Spartans and Romans are all dead white people.

The Kilt might raise the Eire of the Irish and Scots............

These parents projecting their baggage on their children.

But wait, if a 5 year old can choose a gender, why not a costume?

My blond, blue eyed granddaughter is actually dressing up as Moana for Halloween. Her Mother bought the costume before this controversy erupted.

For Holloween ppl should just dress in MEGA Hats. If Trump people are frightening, then be frightened.

The answer to these lunatics needs to start being "yes, and go screw yourself".

Moana who? Mona lisa? If I want to dress up as Moana or Mona or liz warren I will!

"If you're caricaturing Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump, that's fine, those are public figures. Those masks are always fair game.

Well, sure, because Trump and Hillary are white. "Is it okay" to make fun of, say, public figures Barack Obama or MLK Jr. in a costume?

Didn't think so.

Clever!

In an odd twist of fate, that is the day I have my C 3, 5 and 6 decompression/fusion surgery scheduled for. Got some sugar skulls to put on the neck brace. Oh, and a US flag, a NAVY sticker and maybe a guitar or two. LOL! Oh crap. Looks like I’m on the dead kids day and not the the dead adults day. Better get out the voodoo doll and do some incantations.

The writer assume the gender of the costume wearer to be a girl..................

BULL!

My idea for a gut punch costume is a white T shirt, jeans, guitar, a pompadour wig, and a swastika armband. When people ask who it’s supposed to be tell them “John Cougar Deathcamp.”

[rktman]

EVERYthing is their business. Bullies. Ya gotta love ‘em for their persistence.

Kids should dress as an NFL player and when the door opens kneel before saying “Trick or treat!” That’s scary.

Of course the scariest costume this year will be a Harvey Weinstein mask

[momtothree]

Picture reminds me of a kid my son knew. In his high school years, the young man dressed up in a Klan outfit.. hood and all. Went trick or treating and when a white family started to yell at him.. she took off his hood (revealing an African American face). His “fun” was watching how quickly silence ensued. It was all “fun and games” till the police showed up... a black officer said, “Okay... I think it’s funny but stop scaring the white folks”.

Is it OK for a white Pacific Islander kid to dress up as Moana Cinderella or Snow White for Halloween?

That’s funny because no one ever wore those helmets. It was something that came about from Wagnerian opera.
