It's nowhere near October, but one ensemble is already on track to be named the most controversial Halloween costume of 2015.

Social media users were out in full force on Monday criticizing several Halloween retailers for offering a Caitlyn Jenner costume reminiscent of the former-athlete's Vanity Fair cover earlier this year.

While Jenner's supporters condemned the costume as "transphobic" and "disgusting" on Twitter, Spirit Halloween, a retailer that carries the costume, defended the getup.

"At Spirit Halloween, we create a wide range of costumes that are often based upon celebrities, public figures, heroes and superheroes," said Lisa Barr, senior director of marking at Spirit Halloween. "We feel that Caitlyn Jenner is all of the above and that she should be celebrated. The Caitlyn Jenner costume reflects just that."
 
Sweden. Never had slaves. No colonial past besides mild coloninization in america. Took in Black migrants anyways and gave them houses and welfare. Lock up Swedes that criticize these actions.

And yet it's "Fuck white people" for this popular rapper.

Pride comes before the fall.
 
castrate blacks and shoot them in the head anyways
 
This is not Hip Hop, it's literal cultural appropriation. Appropriating the culture in order to push your ideology.
Skin color does not entitle you to cultural legitimacy either.
 
The funny thing and possibly only good thing about being invaded by an intellectually inferior group is they are stupid enough to reveal their hatred for you whilst they are still the minority.

This guy doesn't even live in one of the no go zones. He lives in a neighborhood in Lund that is less expensive to live in than the town center but is still well off with a mostly white population. One would think he would want to live someplace where there are fewer pesky whiteys around

He's rich and privileged enough he doesn't want to get robbed and murdered by his "fellow" Negroes.
 
Man, 66, arrested after £1m golden toilet stolen from Blenheim Palace
A£1m solid gold toilet has been stolen from Blenheim Palace in an audacious overnight burglary, police said today.
The 18ct lavatory, designed by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan, was part of a new exhibition at the country home where Winston Churchill was born, and was ripped out and driven away in the early hours of Saturday morning.
The piece is called "America", and had had been plumbed into the water system so that visitors could fully engage with the artwork, as long as they obeyed a three-minute time slot.
Police have arrested a 66-year-old man in connection with the theft, but confirmed that the golden toilet is still missing and that there was "significant damage and flooding".
Detective Inspector Jess Milne, from Thames Valley Police said: “The piece of art that has been stolen is a high value toilet made out of gold that was on display at the palace.

“Due to the toilet being plumbed in to the building, this has caused significant damage and flooding.
“We believe a group of offenders used at least two vehicles during the offence.
“The artwork has not been recovered at this time but we are conducting a thorough investigation to find it and bring those responsible to justice.

“Residents will see an increased police presence in the area while officers and staff carry out enquiries.
“I am appealing to anyone who saw or heard anything suspicious in the area to contact police."
They said that the force received a report of a burglary at Blenheim Palace in Woodstock, Oxfordshire, at 4.57am today, adding that the offenders broke into the palace overnight and left the scene at about 4.50am.
No one was injured during the burglary.
The artwork had previously drawn huge crowds at New York's Guggenheim museum when it first went on display in 2016 and was later offered to Donald Trump, in a satirical jibe at the President.

An event site design company who work at the Palace also posted on social media: "We've had some drama overnight which I won't elaborate on just yet but it has meant we need to redirect our contractor traffic for the day."
Blenheim Palace has today been closed to the public. In a statement, they said: "
Following the Thames Valley Police statement we can confirm ‘America’, the art piece by Maurizio Cattelan has been stolen in the early hours of this morning.
"We are saddened by this extraordinary event, but also relieved no-one was hurt.

"We are very grateful to our staff and to Thames Valley Police for their rapid and brave reactions. We knew there was huge interest in the Maurizio Cattelan contemporary art exhibition, with many set to come and enjoy the installations.
"It’s therefore a great shame an item so precious has been taken, but we still have so many fascinating treasures in the Palace and the remaining items of the exhibition to share.
"The investigation continues, but it will be business as usual from tomorrow, so visitors can continue to come and experience all we have to offer.
"If anyone knows or saw anything suspicious in connection with the event that may help us secure its return please contact Thames Valley Police."
Edward Spencer-Churchill, half-brother of the current Duke of Marlborough and founder of the Blenheim Art Foundation, told the Sunday Times last month: “Despite being born with a silver spoon in my mouth I have never had a s*** on a golden toilet, so I look forward to it."
Asked if he was worried about security, he said: "It’s not going to be the easiest thing to nick.
“Firstly, it’s plumbed in and secondly, a potential thief will have no idea who last used the toilet or what they ate. So no, I don’t plan to be guarding it.”

Cattelan's artwork only went on display two days ago and is due to run until October 27.
This is the Italian's first solo exhibition in the UK in twenty years and features new works displayed for the first time.
 
So basically it's a jail toilet but made of gold, that anyone could use as long as they were quick, 3minutes seems like a awful short amount of time to test drive it.
 
Man being fired brings emotional support clown to meeting
A support dog just wasn’t going to cut it.
A New Zealand man facing the ax at work brought a support clown to his recent redundancy meeting — the $200 performer provided comedic relief as his bosses fired him.
Auckland ad man Joshua Jack said he sensed the bad news when he received an email from his agency employer telling him they needed to have a meeting to discuss his role this week.
“It did talk about being able to bring a support person,” Jack said of the email in an interview with local radio station Magic Talk on Friday.
“I thought, it’s either a promotion or worse. I thought it was best to bring in a professional — so I paid $200 and hired a clown.”
News of the support-clown stunt quickly proliferated when the New Zealand Herald published a picture of Jack having a serious meeting with the emotional-support clown and two employers seated across from him.
Jack did get fired in the end, but he said his bosses at the advertising agency FCB were grateful he decided to “spice up the meeting” and “could see the humorous side.”

The clown mimed crying as Jack’s employers slid the redundancy paperwork across the table and created a balloon unicorn and poodle to lighten the mood.
“They were getting a free service and also getting the entertainment from Joe the clown,” Jack said, but conceded the clown was a little distracting.
"It was sort of noisy, him making balloon animals, so we did have to tell him to be quiet from time-to-time.”
The clown thought it was a “touch unusual,” Jack said, but was “overall supportive” in the meeting.
“He was $200 so basically he was, I assume, one of the best clowns in Auckland,” Jack said. “I definitely recommend bringing Joe or another clown. Highly recommended.”
A proliferation of strange support animals in recent years — including a support peacock, duck and squirrel — have caused headaches for US airlines, but it is unclear where they stand on emotional-support clowns.

Fears of Muslim riots: Police mobilize in Sweden ahead of Davis Cup clash against Israel

Police officers have been mobilized across Stockholm, which will host the upcoming Davis Cup matches between Sweden and Israel, to prevent potential anti-Israel rampages.
The Davis Cup encounter should have been played in the small city of Bastad, but was relocated to Stockholm for security reasons. Swedish tennis bosses said that they could not guarantee security for Israeli players and fans at the open-air venue in Bastad.

Matches were therefore moved to the indoor Royal Tennis Hall in Stockholm.
The relocation comes exactly 10 years after violent events in Malmo, when hundreds of Muslim protesters supported by left-wing activists flooded the streets to demand the cancelation of Davis Cup games against Israel.

Back then, violent riots engulfed the city, which has a large Muslim community. Protesters clashed with police, throwing rocks, smashing cars and their headlights.
Sweden will take on Israel in the Davis Cup Europe-Africa Group I tie this weekend, with the winner of the match booking a place in the 2020 Davis Cup Qualifiers.
Sweden won seven Davis Cups between 1975-1998 and are fifth on the all-time list of champions.


Lol, calm down. It's just tennis

They had colonial past. Largely in Finland.
 
Someone should tell them they don't actually need to pay dead people to vote. They could keep it for themselves.

If they keep paying for the healthcare, in order to keep those dead people are actually alive and eligible to vote, it's guaranteed to be an elaborate shell scheme to line pockets.

Swedish mercenaries like Count von Rosen participated in the Biafran War on the side of the rebels and were a serious force multiplier, so Niggerians probably are still a little butthurt about that.
 
Man Arrested For Pissing All Over Video Games in Supermarket

Man Arrested For Pissing All Over Video Games in Supermarket

By Luke Plunkett on 11 Jan 2016 at 12:00AM

Last week, Anel Mujkanovic walked into a Target store in Pennsylvania. He then “took a handicap electric cart and drove around the store coming to a stop in the electronics aisle. After removing one set of urine soaked pants he exposed himself and began to urinate on video games and accessories.”

OK.

CCTV footage published by the Wilkes-Barre Township Police Department.

Having originally fled the scene, local police say (via Gamespot) that a day later Mujkanovic, 25, turned himself in, when he was charged with “open lewdness, public drunkenness and disorderly conduct”.

Our thoughts go out to the affected games and their families. And whoever was working the games counter at the time, thinking “what’s the worst that could happen today?”
