Got a lot done.
-A white kid was dressed as Alladin- explained it was racially insensitive and gave him a generic hunk of wannabe Bazooka Joe gum. He looked confused.
-A little girl was in a pink dress, tiarra, and wand. Told her she was devaluing herself into a stereotype, and she'd never be respected in our society, and suggested she likely will grow up with daddy issues (no candy). Closed the door before she broke fully into tears.
-Boy dressed up as a bum or a hobo of some sort. Ashes from her mom's cigarette I think, rubbed across his face as a beard- Mom was standing in the street, wearing pink pajama pants and a faux leather jacket- smoking a heater. Told the kid he was mocking the homeless and he should be giving instead of taking. Reached into his jack o latntern candy carrier, took out a fun sized Snickers, closed the door and turned out the yard light.
Broke even on candy (actually upgraded from generic gum out to Snickers in).
Got to give the hobo's mom credit for sticktuitiveness. She pounded on the front door for about three minutes before leaving.
Happy Halloween.
