Happy Halloween

Actually, I never liked Halloween.  It always seemed to me a very un-American holiday.  You disguise yourself, go out, and threaten people to extort candy.  You don’t earn the candy.  You don’t do anything for it other than promise bad consequences if your victims  don’t produce.  
What lesson are we teaching the children of America?  We are creating mob enforcers and gangsters.  This is not the morality we need to be imparting.  So don’t bring your little bloodsucking vampires and brain-eating zombies to my door.  All they will get is a lecture on personal responsibility about hard work and the need to be responsible for one’s actions.
You don’t want to hear my Christmas message.
