| Post subject: | The Halloween trick or treating debate |
Is this really a "problem" with kids that you don't recognize or that appear from Mexico trick or treating in your neighborhood? So you want to participate in this "holiday" but only if its with kids in your immediate neighborhood? So you have to buy a couple of extra bags, how much are you really out? If you say it's money then you probably need to stop buying candy in the first place. Is it the extra times you have to open the door for the trick or treaters? If that beats you down you probably should turn your lights off and pretend like no one is home then you scrooge. We can debate the stupidness of this holiday but who cares of some poor/mexicans kids want to go where its nicer/safer/more fun. I'm tired of the argument that they don't speak English. While the parents may not, all the kids do. If the kids don't know proper manners, that's on their parents but don't hold it against the kids. Tell them to say please and thank you if you must but just smile and move along. If you are really bothered by it then you are dumbass for taking Halloween too seriously. Again, if you've had a period or a wet dream you don't need to be going door to door. |

Most years since we've been in a house, we've had something to do and haven't been at home on Halloween. But in the years that I have been home, I could give a shit less where the trick or treaters come from. And why would anyone? |

If you're bothered by kids from other neighborhoods coming to your door, turn your porch light off and fuck yourself. I think I've mentioned this before but if it helps Walt pack quicker I'll repeat it. I live in a apartment complex where there is ZERO trick or treating. The first year I lived here gammita was only a few months old so we stayed home on halloween. I bought a shitload of candy and waited for all the apartment dwelling kids to come knocking. Only one showed up. Bonus candy for me but still a little disappointing. The next year we dressed gammita up as a lady bug or some shit and went outside. There were NO porch lights on in my complex. The only option we had for the kid to have a halloween experience was to drive around until we found a couple of decorated streets where the neighborhood was obviously celebrating the holiday. We parked and went trick or treating and have done the same ever since. So my option is either hit up a neighborhood to score the goods or tell gammita that she can't dress up and trick or treat because her parents don't love her enough to buy a house. |

I used Halloween to determine my social economic's of my neighborhood. I give candy to all equally. However, it's time to move to. |

If you can let Mexicans into your neighborhood to mow your lawn, you can let their kids in for Halloween. |

Expecting a large Halloween turnout, Junior stockpiled a large amount of candy and put it in a rather large bowl as he told it. Well at around 6 PM, in the early dusk part of the evening, the doorbell rang. Junior, with bowl of candy at the ready, sprang to action and opened the door to a chorus of "trick or treats". He quickly scanned the crowd of assorted costumed kids and recognized them as neighbors. I say kids plural because as the story was told there were not 1, not 2, but SEVEN kids standing on the porch all at once waiting for a candied treat. Junior, aware of the early evening time, did the math and feared that he did not have enough candy. Panicked that his rations would be pilfered before the real rush of revelers arrived, Junior meticulously reached into his bowl and gave each child just one single bite sized Butterfinger bar. He sent the kids on their way and turned to his wife who stood on the porch behind him. He asked her if he was being stingy. I should point out that Gordo and George chimed in adding to the hilarity of the situation and really hamming it up with faux surprise and laughter. Junior really became chagrined at this point and told how his wife hounded him for his lack of generosity. He countered with "why didn't you say anything then?" to which she retorted "I was too stunned". After that, Gordo and George really dogpiled him, I don't have to tell you. The story concluded with Junior telling how only 1 more trick or treater visited his home for the rest of the evening and he was left with a ton of candy and a guilty conscience. This left the famed morning trio debating how the situation could have/should have been dealt with and a what Craig should do segment. |

Giving candy to kids is fun no matter the color. |

If your neighborhood can't afford good candy, too fucking bad. You should've done better in school and worked your way up like I did. |

Free candy is obviously more a human right than health care. |

Try and keep up. Are you really trying to equate giving Halloween candy to healthcare? |

so some dude like Miller who makes enough to just go out and buy more candy, or have his wife do it, is all worked up over giving candy to non-neighborhood kids? is that really the line you want to draw to show your hardcore beliefs on illegal aliens? |
