WTF? Huh Huh Huh

This is seriously pathetic. What the bloody unmentionable is wrong with Halloween in general, and what implications of terrorism does it hold?

Interestingly, my priest dressed up as Elvis and won a prize at our town parade last night. I guess he's going to hell though Tongue

I remember when Ronald Reagan made that joke about the Soviet Union on a mike he thought was turned off, but which in fact was on.  Thanks for the good memory. Cheesy

"Mr Chavez said Halloween was part of the US culture"
Well, he's right on that (though banning it is absurd). Halloween and St Valentine's Day are both US customs virtually unheard of outside US borders as little as 15 years ago (like...when I was a kid) that are spreading like hellfire - and being promoted like there's no tomorrow, because there's money to be made in them (but also, in part, with no bad intentions at all, with all the US movies and tv series and stuff) - and I, for one, am having none of it.

The article doesn't say he banned it.
