same

if I couldn't eat it or if it took too long to open (or already open) I tossed it.

Wow, I've never heard of these "Chick tracts". Why are they called that?

I grew up on a farm so we never really got to go trick-or-treating - sometimes we'd go in town but only to the houses of people my parents knew.

The web site says the guy that owns the company is named Jack Chick.

When I was a kid, there was a house down the street from me where the residents who lived there gave out pencils on Halloween. I remember thinking, "A pencil? I thought I was supposed to get candy!"

psychodelicide said:

should have sharpened them and propped them under their car tires...

OnlyNDaUsa said:

OMG, that would have been too funny.

psychodelicide said:

I becha them cheep bastards would have handed out some mother fricking snickers the next Halloween.

OnlyNDaUsa said:

They probably would. Snickers.

psychodelicide said:

I got those too. It felt like they were going against the spirit of Halloween.

Cinnie said:

If you eat this will you burn in hell?

You know what??
The JW's came to our door two weekends ago and they had a little girl doin their work for them.
I was actually taken by surprise and was reserved in my response to them because I didn't have the heart to have a child feel hurt.

That is some cowardly ass bullshit.

If your kids get some shit in their bags call me up. I will come down and help u punch some Jesus-lovin face.

Cinnie said:

Same here!!

I know only too well...I used to be one of those kids.

noimageatall said:

Wow! Really??

She was all beamin and proud reciting what she'd been taught to me at my door.
I was so pissed!

That's the brainwashing at work. They start early.

REAL comics would have been cool. I would have LOVED to get a Spiderman comic from someone when I was a kid!

it's on saturday so yeahhhhh

PunkMistress said:

What the fuck is that?

PunkMistress said:

Me myself being from the school of unruly ass Christians, I love you.

ernestsewell said:

no offense but i think i used to hate people like your mom when i worked at Bob's Big Boy

hmm....
I would be kinda surprised by it but...it wouldn't make me angry..?? I find that a bit excessive. just throw it out...big deal. Everyone has a right to do that if they want...

Nikademus said:

i got real comics a few times. no Spider-Man, but i got an X-Men once. i remember it vividly.

Violence is not the answer but if this happened to me personally I would treat it the same way when JW's trespass on my property, a simple 'get fucked' will suffice.

OnlyNDaUsa said:

of COUSE she exaggerating. Some things r appropriate and some aren't. U dont know what religion I am...maybe I'm muslim, maybe I'm jewish, maybe I'm athiest..u don't friggin know. This is an EXTREMELY secular holiday...sure it has roots in christianity, but it ain't nowhere in there today, along with MOST religious holidays. I don't push MY religious views on you, don't push them on me. As stupid as the U.S. may appear to be, we are all fairly educated people and then"word" has been heard...if someone takes it or not has already happened...don't go around pushing your religious agenda on people. Religious freedom allows for freedom from religion as well.

Save it please! If you do not want to have a persons views shared (Not pushed) with you or your kids then DON'T go begging door to door for tricks or treats.

Who is the one going around? Who is the one saying that another should not share their point of view? It has nothing to do with going anywhere or pushing anything. It is the KIDS with the approval of their caregivers who are going around asking for stuff. If you get a little book about Jesus and you do not want you child to be exposed to that, then, as you inspect their candy (as any good parent would) throw it away! Be a parent and filter what they are exposed to.

EDIT: you are incorrect in

this statement

in as far as you DO NOT have the RIGHT by ANY stretch of the imagination to limit my right to pass out relgious materials or to even start preaching a good old down home fire and brimstone sermon to anyone that come to my door OTHER than leaving and taking your kids with you. Your statement suggests that IF I was to do such that I would have in some way violated one of your or your children's rights, which is untrue.
