If they had dressed up a gangbangers, this never would have been a story.
But, which has killed more black people in the last 10 years? 25 years? 50 years?
There it is! There it is. I knew it would not take long before such rhetoric would be used. A total changing of the subject.
But since they didn't dress up like gangbangers, and they DID dress up like KKK members??
I'm unsure of your point.
I can tell you if any youngsters came to my front door dressed like that, they would have gotten an earful from me- and no candy.
Would your solution be to overlook the Klan costumes or condemn both the Klan and gangbanger costumes?
Wrong.

"Students at Highland Park High School dressed as gang members, rap stars, maids and yard workers this month during homecoming week a tradition one Dallas civil-rights leader says is racially insensitive.
"On senior Thug Day, students wore Afro wigs, fake gold teeth and baggy jeans. On Fiesta Day, which was to honor Hispanic heritage, one student brought a leaf blower to school. "
