It's not okay for you to dress as a member of the NWA.  It's also not okay for you to spell out what your costume is when someone asks what you're dressed as, especially since I KNOW you wouldn't have done it if there had been African American people in your immediate vicinity.  The DJ called you out on it, which was cool, but for the love of all that is good and holy, WTF were you thinking?  

That is all.

PS - According to the picture linked in the Wiki article above, you weren't even accurate to their image, which makes me think you just dressed "tough" as a gag and picked NWA as what you were dressed as to be as offensive as possible. 
As a follow-up to my previous post which speaks of the child slavery associated with many of the more common chocolate brands, I thought I should offer some slavery-free alternatives.  Yes, these are a bit more expensive, but as chocolate is a luxury item anyway, I'd rather spend more on less of it than know that my Milky Ways (or Hershey bars or Three Musketeers) came from child slavery. 

Happy Halloween! :)

Someone on Facebook commented that the article itself was a bit sensationalist, which is true.  However, it has links to several other sources, which is why I'm linking it here.

Food for thought.
