Teen's KKK Costume Wins Scariest Costume prize and a 5 day suspension

[Champ]

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - A high school student's costume garnered a top prize — and a five-day suspension — at the school's Halloween masquerade party.



The Ku Klux Klansman getup took the prize for the scariest costume at the City High School dance attended by the principal, assistant principal and other staff members.


Superintendent Bert Bleke said he agreed with the school's decision to suspend the student but wanted to know why adults at the party failed to stop the senior, who was wearing a white-hooded outfit, from entering, much less winning a prize.


"There are a number of questions I have and don't yet have answers to," Bleke said.


Contacted by the newspaper, the student declined to discuss his Halloween outfit. He said school leaders advised him to keep mum, and that he didn't want to cause any more trouble for himself.

Well maybe, just maybe, you shouldn't have worn the fucking costume. You knew, KNEW, that when you put it on, your ass was gonna get toasted. I want to see you pull that that kind of shit in DC. Idiot. :grr:
