Umm....wait a minute? If a white person hung a black mannequin they would most likely be charged with a hate crime. Why in this instance should it be any different?

Oh wait!.... I know! I know! Because with the left there is always a double standard.

This was done in poor taste and no it's not just because I am for the right side of issues.

Way to go overboard there.

My boyfriend and I had a lively debate on this issue on the car ride to work this a.m. Although I'm definitely NOT a republican and I can't stand Palin and McCain, I still think this is wrong. And to try to make light of the fundamental message behind it "just because it's Halloween" doesn't make it any less offensive. Unfortunately, my boyfriend disagreed.
