Same with the Juilliane Hough in blackface, how could none of their friends make them stop and reconsider? I think if she wore it to work its reasonable for her to get fired. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/marathon-bomb-victim-costume#post-1192429 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 12:41:56 +0000 birdofafeather 1192429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's pretty effed up. And the photo is at work, so I understand being fired. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/marathon-bomb-victim-costume#post-1192353 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 11:22:38 +0000 Happygal 1192353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went to a party where the host was JFK after he had been shot in the head, and his girlfriend was Jackie with blood splattered all over her. I wish I had shaken off the shock enough to give them a piece of my mind.</p> <p>These costumes are tasteless and depressing. I just don't understand the thinking behind it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/marathon-bomb-victim-costume#post-1192347 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 11:17:31 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1192347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsLilybugg: @bluestriped bee: these people are very tasteless. Since when did making fun of tragedies become a thing? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/marathon-bomb-victim-costume#post-1192341 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 11:13:33 +0000 Smurfette 1192341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both of those are awful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/marathon-bomb-victim-costume#post-1192337 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 11:10:49 +0000 MrsLilybugg 1192337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: omg!!!! This is insane! And they are proud of and defended their costumes when called out in comments. Ugh!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/marathon-bomb-victim-costume#post-1192320 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 11:01:59 +0000 BSB 1192320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Poor and insensitive choice in costume but why would you wear that to work? You have to be so careful at work. At my work, we have to remind people that costumes need to be work appropriate. </p> <p>Did anyone hear about the kids who dressed up as Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman? <a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/buster/halloween/trayvon-zimmerman-halloween-costumes-657409" rel="nofollow">http://www.thesmokinggun.com/buster/halloween/trayvon-zimmerman-halloween-costumes-657409</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/marathon-bomb-victim-costume#post-1192314 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 10:58:25 +0000 MrsLilybugg 1192314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BlueWolverine: good point- it did happen at work. I agree that her family should be left out of this, and yes the threats are insane!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/marathon-bomb-victim-costume#post-1192300 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 10:45:50 +0000 BlueWolverine 1192300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It looks like in the picture that she wore it to work. In that case, I'm OK with her getting fired. </p> <p>What a callous, horrible person. That's not a "bad choice." It's complete and utter stupidity. It's completely her right be stupid, but the consequences are hers as well. People should leave her parents alone, though. And anyone who makes death threats because of a costume also needs some help. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/marathon-bomb-victim-costume#post-1192295 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 10:42:16 +0000 MrsLilybugg 1192295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So this girl dressed up as a boston marathon bomb victim for Halloween</p> <p><a href="http://www.putthatshitonthelist.com/2013/11/jfc-someone-went-as-boston-marathon.html?m=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.putthatshitonthelist.com/2013/11/jfc-someone-went-as-boston-marathon.html?m=1</a> </p> <p>This was a really stupid idea. If her tweets are real, do you think she should have been fired? I guess maybe the company was afraid of a potential PR nightmare if someone got a gold of their name etc. There are only four tweets so I wonder if this account is real or if she just wiped her history clean. </p> [attach=1335/13/mvn7mh.338x600.image.jpg]
