"Then again, as a Cosco spokesman said, it is not uncommon for people to purchase large amounts of candy. And no doubt, people do return the candy on occasion. I think it is a little far fetched to think that returned candy will have been opened, hosed down with small pox, anthrax, etc. then returned to the bag without someone noticing the bag was opened and resealed. This is where the hysteria I'm referring to comes into play."

You're pissing up the wrong rope. Take your sick message to the FBI, since they are taking this situation seriously.

"So, rather than getting hysterical, let your kids go out and enjoy Halloween!"

Your bogus accusation of "hysteria" is countered with a mega-dose of contempt -- and, a suggestion that since cars, trucks, and busses are fantastic devices that make a comfortable, modern life possible, you put your money where your mouth is. Rather than getting hysterical, let your kids go play in the traffic.

How dare you try to shame people into playing Arab Roulette with their children's lives. How f'n dare you.
