So, what is an "Immigrant Right Activist" doing bitching about slight against "Illegal Aliens"? Shouldn't he/she be jumping in and helping since the illegal aliens are really giving the legal aliens a bad name?

Here's the funny thing. That first costume does not even reference a Latino immigrant in any way. It's this guy, this activist for law breakers, who applies the stereotype. What a load of crap.

In a few years wearing this costume will be a hate crime. They'll release some rapists and child pornographers to make room in the prisons for people who buy this.

I think it's funny. Fuck the illegal immigrants, they don't get a say in the matter. If they want their voice to be heard they need to become a legal citizen.

Walmart sells these costumes? I would think they wouldn't want to offend a good portion of their employees/customers.

Following this logic, we should also eliminate any costumes imitating other distinct classes of criminals as well. The classic bank robber costume is out, popular wild west outlaw costumes are out, might as well do away with the prison inmate costume for good measure. Kinda fucked up to be worried about what lawbreakers think in this case, though. If I were them I'd keep my head down rather than make offended noises about something they really shouldn't want to publicly admit to anyway. Legal immigrants being offended is a double WTF. This doesn't really have anything to do with them.

What an idiot! Doesn't he realize that this creates the opportunity for all the illegal immigrant kids to go door to door for free candy without having to invest even 1 cent into a costume?

:p

ATTENTION!
All illegal immigrants who want to protest, please congregate near your local police departments and your comments will be deported... I mean... collected.

I love the BS 'cover up' that the stores come up with. Yeah, you accidentally ordered 10 thousand of these costumes, filled up warehouses all over the country and then 'accidentally' gave the costume a price and uploaded it to your web server. The logistics of getting an item into inventory and then selling it is a little more complicated than accidentally pushing a button I tend to think.

Not that I am defending them, and I fully believe they did sell it on purpose, but you can upload data files to servers, and store databases without know what is on the list. I do it all day at work, upload distributor data files to our server, and webstore, and I don't know every item.

Last I heard, Wal-Mart still sold sheets.

I'll bet not one single illegal alien complained about this costume. It might actually be a perfect disguise!

Their illegaly entering the country, refusing to adapt to our language and culture, and demanding rights which they shouldn't have is furthering the division between our ethnic groups.

Anyone know if you can still find these? It looks like it has been pulled out of the local B&Ms...

That's sort of the point... it wouldn't be funny if the message simply read "alien".

Considering that illegal immigrants are a broadside attack on our entire country maybe they should just shut the fuck up.
