Bytes in the Margin

Ugh, is it a rule that when you become an activist you lose your sense of humor? Target had to pull this "Illegal Alien" costume, because some of mi gente didn't like it. I find it funny, is there something wrong with me? See - its an Extraterrestrial - and , get this, he's not on Earth legally.

It'd be offensive if the alien was wearing a poncho or had a big sombrero, but otherwise, why cry foul? You're just making it easier to be ignored when something really offensive comes around.

For the record, I also liked the Taco Bell chihuahua.
