Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! Or maybe not, it depends on where you are. In Puyallup, WA schools have banned Halloween:
A reason stated by a district spokesperson is, "Witches with pointy noses and things like that are not respective symbols of the Wiccan religion, and so we want to be respectful of that ... We want to make sure our students are respectful of all religions and all cultures."
And how respectful is that whole baby Christ thing towards Judaism? The whole Mohammed saga towards Christianity? The entire hum-bum towards atheism? Let those kids trick or treat, damnit.
