[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP did not say anything about anyone being black or white or green or purple (lots of those last two kinds on Halloweeen, you know).  I actually agree with OP.  Driving your child to another neighborhood to t-o-t is obnoxious and greedy.  Lots of people who do that are NOT coming from unsafe neighborhoods, they just want to go to neighborhoods where the t-o-t'ing is "easier" because houses are closer together or in area where they think the houses will have "better" candy because it is more affluent.  This is not race based, you see it in the upper crusty areas of all neighborhoods.  Halloween is not suppossed to be a greedy free-for-all.  Right of passge and childhood memories, sure, but in your own neighborhood if you want to really do it the traditional and all-American way.

The caveat is, if you do indeed live in a dangerous or unfriendly to t-o-t'ing neighborhood than, by all means, come on over! but dont do it just for the candy which is what we are blantantly seeing (and I do not live on Capital Hill or in G'town).[/quote]

You sound like a class A jerk.  The street I grew up on had no sidewalks and was not safe for trick-or-treating.  The neighborhood was somewhat out of the way and was not at all walkable, so my mother always took us to ToT with our friends.  Was this somehow wrong?  And who the eff are you to decide if people are doing it for memories or solely for candy?  You snot.[/quote]
