They were definitely dressed as Democrats. The costumes went over your head.

RacistSpeed strikes again.

There are plenty of white people that pull the same kind of shit.

Kids who go out on Halloween with no costumes have shitty parents. Whether they’re black or white.

Let’s please make the distinction that the ones you saw with no costumes are shitty people who happen to be black. They’re not doing that because they’re black. It’s nurture not nature.

I know plenty of amazing people who happen to be black, and I know a ton of shitty people who are white. Color doesn’t matter, it’s about upbringing. Again, nurture not nature.

Oh yeah, INB4THELOCK

Not racist if it’s an accurate observation. In my experience I have witnessed far more black people over the “acceptable” trick or treating age, without costumes, coming in droves than white people. They (referring to the black people I saw, not black people in general) were clearly not from the area, being dropped off by mom and dad, mooching off a harmless holiday. Facts not racism.

^ You have to admit the numbers were definitely pushed to one race though. That’s not racism, it’s simple math.

It’s not about numbers it’s about the fact that it’s nurture not nature.

The fact that they didn’t have costumes could be attributed to a lot of things.

What if they couldn’t afford costumes? If you wanna talk facts, there are ton that show people who happen to be black earn less.

So according to you a certain race can’t raise their kids properly?

I’m not racist. I just want NOTHING to do with other races or ethnic groups. It’s human nature. It’s not wrong or immoral to want nothing to do with another ethnic group, you have NOTHING in common. If you took a 25 year old African American male…99/100 times, is going to be radically opposite from me in every way, shape or form. Different styles of clothes, cars, parenting, work ethic, drug use, beliefs and goals.

Why would that black kid want to be friends with a white honky like me?

Come on…Even the dumb costumes would work…bed sheet with eyes cut out = ghost, jersey or sports shirt and a hat = Sports player, headband with ears/horns/w/e. If they can afford the gas to drive their kids all over then they can afford a costume. I would NEVER go trick or treating or to a Halloween party without a costume.

Try and get a black guy to wear a white sheet. Let me know how that works out for you.

That’s a fair point.

I’m just harping on the idea that it’s nurture not nature and that anyone is capable of doing something shitty like that. I’m sure there’s plenty of white trash that does it.
