Happy Halloween


This picture caused some recent controversy:







This is a toy costume.  This has been removed from Amazon, WalMart, and eBay.  It has been deemed to "glorify hatred, violence, racial, sexual, or religious intolerance".



This picture causes no controversy:

This is not a toy costume.  This is real.  This is active training in the glorification of  "hatred, violence, racial, sexual, or religious intolerance".







Or, how about this one?



This is considered acceptable.  Recently posted by Fatah, this is a rerun of a Nazi poster.   Note the additions in Arabic.







But this costume perpetuates racial stereotypes. (actually, looks just like my Uncle).






In my astonishing naivete, I can't conceive how anyone can live with such glaring hypocrisy.


Or is it just me?
