30UBC: Warning. On a Rant About Halloween.
Day 2
Halloween Controversy - Many Christian Churches encourage their congregations to boycott Halloween Celebrations. What is your opinion, is Halloween pure evil?


So ... how much trouble am I in for admitting that I don't give a flying fig?
Here's the thing ... I live in middle class neighborhood next to a lower income neighborhood on one side and a rich neighborhood on the other. Why do both hit our streets? I mean for real. One year I stopped counting at 80. I dumped the candy dish out on the stoop and let them fight for it. I participated when the kids were little, but now I am just done with it. If the kids stayed in their own neighborhoods, that would be fine. driving your car to my street? Not okay.

I boycott it not because it is evil, but because I am a stingy old lady. I own it. I have better things to spend my money on than the kids from the poor side of town where the single parents should seriously stop wasting their money on things that just do not matter. The money they waste on Halloween could be much better spent on food for the table. The rich kids? Oh, please. The greed sickens me. Stay home and play board games with your parents.
