Two weeks ago, a California school district (Los Altos) banned Halloween costumes and activities in schools because some parents felt that the "holiday" had religious-satanic connotations.
I was devastated to think that a handful of sniveling parents could RUIN a much-loved activity for that many children. And I was worried that their particular brand of PC-ness might prove infectious and kill Halloween fun everywhere in California.
But... hundreds of parents stood up for their children... and the ban was lifted.
HALLOWEEN LIVES ON!!
NOT EVERYONE IS POLITICALLY CORRECT AFTER ALL!!
There's hope for us all! :wink:
