THE DIRTY ARMY: This guy and girl dressed up as one of the twin towers and a plane for halloween, when the girl was asked if she thought she would offend anyone she replied, “No, it’s cool, my aunt died on the 64th floor, and it was a conspiracy anyway.” Are you kidding me? I’m all for grossly offensive jokes but not when it’s taken THAT far. Nik, your thoughts?
In the US, probably. Something more controversial would be dressing up like a suicide bomber terrorist with a face mask of a respected world leader like FDR or Churchill. Even more would be dressing up like Jesus and wearing a shirt that says "God doesn't exist".
Besides the welling of anger that swelled in me upon viewing this, it was quickly subdued by the pain I felt for the dead and suffering of the families. How do we come to a point in our intelligent and educated mindset where we see the creation of such a costume as funny. Something is broken in the minds of the young and it is this mindset that helped elect our president. A scary thought to say the least.

The hole for his face looks just big enough to put a foot through - hopefully someone at the party realized this.
