Some witches are getting angry because they are portrayed as evil, and ugly. They are so angry, infact, that they have banned together asking the school board to cancel the Halloween celebration...
Tell them to STFU. They can piss off--the stereotypical witch should not be changed because a minority of "real" witches get offended by it. Halloween should continue as planned. With unusually ugly witches placed as decorations.

I agree, besides why should halloween be changed because the witches are offended and not be changed for christians who have always been offended, at least many of them.
Yes, **** those minorities. In fact, not only should schools allow children to dress as gross mischaracterizations of minority religious groups for Halloween, but they should also allow them to wear black face as well. Why reserve this temperment solely for Wiccans? Schools should allow children to dress as pedophile Catholic priests and serpent handling Evangelical preachers for Halloween too.
nobody forces people to celebrate these happenings, like in Norway nobody really gives a flying f*uck about Halloween, they try and try to make it a happening but it doesnt catch on. The comming easter: people(<- read conservative christians) dont like us being at work every day of the easter holiday, they think we should respect the holiday and I tell them to respect our choice to not follow it.
well they wear it to mass so........ but I agree with you on this though
oh wizard of oz is actually on tomorrow gonna record it (DVD recorder) and then Im gonna play it without sound to Pink Floyds Dark Side of the Moon. I never tried that, but they say it is soooooooo cooooooool oh and of course pop a beer or twelve
Wiccans would assert that a "wicked witch" is also an inappropriate costume.
black·facen. Make-up used by a white peformer to impersonate a black person in a conventionalized comic travesty of black people, especially a minstrel show.
Ahem. Pedophilia is illegal and the implications of the costume would be unsuitable for children. The "wicked witch" has been associated with Halloween for some time now--why would we change it because a minority group started pissing and moaning about it?
Simple: we wouldn't.

I have never seen a child at a school wear a serial killer costume. Children probably should not be allowed to wear costumes of serial killers to school. Also, serial killers aren't symbolic with Halloween in the way that witches are.
For the second part: we shouldn't, but the ACLU got their panties in a knot about it. And blacks =! witches for any holiday.

When asked, "Why should we stop wearing black face just because a minority group started pissing and moaning about it," you replied, "we shouldn't." Apparently, you believe it is acceptable to wear black face.
