Hi,

About 5 years ago, urban outfitters sold a "chinaman" halloween costume.
a similar halloween costume has surfaced this year.  this costume features
a buck-toothed rubber mask.  please see below links... SPREAD THE
WORD TO STOP ITS SALE!

Inappropriate Halloween Costume
The store Party City is selling a new halloween costume called "Kung Fool"
(made by Disguise).  Not just Party City, Wal-Mart, Spencer Gifts and
several online stores, sell the costume. Included are some links to and
pictures of the costume.

The costume at Disguise's web site:
http://www.disguise.com/html/product_detail.cfm?ID=1115

An article about Disguise that starts out with them showing off the "Kung
Fool" costume with glee. It mentions that the Chinese character on the
mask's headband means "loser":

Mask for sale separately at Spencer Gifts -
