Some people are just wound up a bit too tight .
This school district banned Halloween
because of the offense caused to Wiccans :

quote:
The district says Halloween celebrations and children dressed in Halloween costumes might be offensive to real witches.
"Witches with pointy noses and things like that are not respective symbols of the Wiccan religion and so we want to be respectful of that," said Hansen.
The Wiccan, or Pagan, religion is growing in the U.S. and there are Wiccan groups in Puyallup.
Dour, humourless fundamentalism comes in all shapes and sizes , from all types of creeds, from the left and from the right .

ARRRGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
That pisses me off on so many levels.
Are we to assume that Holloween is the time of year when everybody in town dresses up like a witch? I sure dont. I save that for Mothers Day.
Why dont we just cater to the KKK on this one too? All those white sheet ghost costumes are offensive to poor Bubba and his Gimp, so no more fun kiddies.
Give it a rest people. If we dont abolish the ACLU soon were not even going to be able to celebrate the Sun coming up in the morning because it pisses off the Sunnis.

Gee, I didn't think the article mentioned the ACLU...that's weird, disband an organization that stands up for people's civil rights? That's a good idea, what else can we disband while we're at it...the NAACP?

The web site Universal set up for Halloween Horror Nights is rather nice; they used Flash to animate some "documents" of the "inmates." They also have "documentary" audio clips and other things. And it's a lot cheaper than the $55 you pay to get in.
