"This is not who I am"

Then why are they getting so pissed off about the costumes?

Am I the only one that thinks the guy in the middle of the bottom row doesn't look like he's Indian (feather)?

If you are easily offended, please do not feel obligated to come to my house to get free stuff! Please stay in your "safe places"!

It's on Amazon.

Most of the "top" customer reviews are pretty good, but almost all the recent ones are 1-star.

Costumes like these aren't funny. If you wanted to be a joke for Halloween, you should have just gone as the donkey.

As a Latina this is not funny or fun at all! Mexicans do not go about their day on donkeys with sombreros. Please, stop stereotyping Latinos.

I thought wearing this costume would boil an entire culture down to a racist stereotype. And I was right: Turns out, I was representing the culture in a super inaccurate and unflattering way! We want this costume taken down!

The bitching about the bitching about the bitching of the bitching. Truth is very very very few give a shite about what's in the OP. No need to make an issue out of it. And same goes to the people that created those posters

If this triggers me to go out of my way to offend, does it cancel out and make it okay?

So I'm still good if my costume is just some khakis, a polo, and a tiki torch?

You too?

And not all white people wear khakis and boat shoes, work 40+ a week, own homes, parent their children, pay their taxes, etc. I'm fricking sick of these stereotypes.
