I would argue anyone from the south could say this. I can’t imagine there is a huge market. This feels very much forced.

That’s some redneck shite if I’ve ever seen it, though.

I wonder, as a Catholic, if I could cause a stink about the nun and priest costumes.

One of the worst mistakes this country has ever made is to allow the absurd notion to grow and gain traction that people have the right to never be offended.

Party City probably saved a few idiot's jobs by doing this.

Yeah, I personally wouldn’t sell it, but I’ve never seen anyone wearing a confederate uniform save for a Civil War re-enactment.

So at the end of the night, do you just surrender all your candy to the nearest Yankee?

Depends. But little boys may not like wearing a nun habit costume...

I still don’t get the point of the cringeworthy capitalization of “black”

Why? It's the Democrats who wanted things to continue on like there wasn't a Civil War.

I’d love to hear from the families who thought it would be a good idea and bought this for their kid’s Halloween costume.

Ready to boycott if they stop selling the French maid costume with the short lacey petticoat and fishnet stockings.
