The Grinches are at it again.
Their latest foray comes from Chesapeake, VA which passed a law restricting trick-or-treating to those 12 or younger. Will this mean that a 14- or 16- or 18-year old could be cited for trick-or-treating?
What is frigging WRONG with people? Let's face it: the news sucks. Politics sucks. Religion has let us down. Even sports has gotten too serious. (Still, I liked the Series.)
What harm is it for teens to want to have trick-or-treating fun? Let's hope Chesapeake is not a harbinger of a trend.
Maybe FOX News can do a series on War on Halloween. No, wait -- we already have idiots passing out tracts instead of candy. And schools having Fall Festivals instead of Halloween Parties.
Truth: I trick-or-treated until I was 18 or 19. Yes, and with my friends. And my Mama was fine with my costumes. (Yes, I did Lum twice -- in tiger skin bikini. Temps were in low- 70s at night)
Oh, New Orleans is a party town and people go all out for Halloween. Like a mini-Mardi Gras in late October. New Year's Eve also rocks in the Quarter.
Good witches protect trick-or-treaters from goblins.
I'm with you, Honey!
ReplyDeleteIt might be the only time I could get away with,
ReplyDelete"Hey, little girl! Want some candy?"
I thought I read where there were 12 cities in VA that passed that law. Probably all republican 'less government' cities.
ReplyDeleteI trick or Treated until I was 17 and then I went out again when I was 23 with 2 friends. We just went out later & to an area we knew little kids were not around and I had a blast. I would still trick or treat if i could. Those laws are stupid
ReplyDeleteGod, some people just can't stand other folks having fun.
ReplyDeleteFall Festivals instead of Halloween Parties???
