Is a Confederate uniform an inappropriate halloween costume?

Use makeup to scar half your face and go as Jonnah Hex.

Hard to drink with a tendon across your lips.

I suggest you ask Harry

In a way, I find that less offensive that a Confederate uniform would be.  The Nazi's were worse than the Confederates, but on the other hand, the Nazi's weren't traitors to my country, either.

To be fair, your country didn't really exist back then.

I wouldn't consider the Confederate uniform to be offensive. However, the fact that the South fought to retain slavery along with other issues it was fighting for, so the Confederacy and the South has become a lot more controversial. Along with how easily people are offended these days. But for myself, I wouldn't give anyone grief over it for just wearing the uniform at a costume party.

I like the idea of a zombie Confederate.  That would be pretty cool.

If you wear a Confederate Uniform to express your fanboyness for the Confederacy that would not only be incredibly lame but maybe offensive as well.

Speaking of Halloween, I've got to figure something out for these work parties.

If I go nerd, I could be the Joker(not the Heath Ledger homo Joker), while my wife does the Harley Quinn bit.

Or I can wear a toga and call myself Consul Biggus Dickus.

I've got a leather trench coat and can do the gestapo bit, but the jews may not care for it.

Or you could dress up exactly as the one staff member you're planning to fire right after Hallowe'en.  You could make it an annual tradition.  It'd be good for morale.

I look awful in a dress. Seriously.

I don't really care who wears a confederate uniform but I vote that anyone who uses the word "celt" or "celtic" to refer to any people or culture later in time than 1500 years ago be shot repeatedly at close range with a Sharp's carbine.

Pass the celt, eh?

Mickey Mouse went as himself once in the early 80s. I found it incredibly lame and retarded. Should work for you.

I meant this kind of Celt, not the fantasy type.

Technically that is a Galatian.

Which is a Celt!
