I'm agreeing that it really aught to be common knowledge that you don't do that sort of thing.

Lack of consideration has been a problem for a long time. There is absolutely nothing wrong with teaching kids to be considerate. The problem is we suck at teaching it because we also teach our kids that they can "be anything they want to be" and then also push them into colleges in hopes they'll make more money.
Maybe the real problem is the parents are stupid. Maybe it's just a progression of stupidity that leads to generations of people who thinks it's okay to take selfies with bears.
This is the best and one of the more intelligent posts in this thread, aside from my posts towards zappa of course.

This piece basically sums it all up.
I recommend people read this, its a frightening look into the Ivy League PC mentality.

"suggested that white people don't paint their faces black"
While they did mention the painting of faces, it also mentioned many other "sensitivity" recommendations. http://pastebin.com/TLGSdaTg
"nothing wrong with teaching kids to be considerate"
No one disagrees with that fact, but when another professor said freedom of speech and expression is even more important, the retards had a freak out.
"Maybe the real problem is the parents are stupid"
The parents don't have anything to do with this situation.

What the fuck is wrong with white people with black makeup on? Black people wear white makeup all the time. Remember the movie white chicks? Key & peele, as well as chapelle have done skits with white make up on.

So, black people are characters worthy of a Halloween costume? It's one thing if you wanted to go as Mr T or some ACTUAL character who happens to be black. But, someone who would consider dressing up as a black person for Halloween is demonstrating that they don't see black people as a normal part of their society.

The debate isn't about whether dressing up as a black person is offensive or not, it's about the fact that campus polices shouldn't dictate what students should or shouldn't do when it comes to FREEDOM of expression.
If someone wants to dress up as a Polish peasant, so be it.

And again, it's context. Black face has been generally used to mock black people. Quote:

I didn't say they want to demonstrate. I'm saying they are demonstrating. It reveals the way they see black people - as costume worthy characters, not regular people.

No, it doesn't. You're thinking a little too deep on this one.
They make nixon and clinton masks, do people wear those to represent that they're "not regular people"?
How about people that dress up as nurses and doctors? Is that a demonstration too?

I went to a Halloween Party once. I was told not to dress in blackface. So I put black all over my exposed areas, wore my leather jacket and sprinkled a little red around for blood. I went as a burn victim after a motorcycle accident. If they hadn't said anything I probably would have done something different.
