Lots of readers didn’t like that I changed my mind on the Penn-Suicide Bomber Costume story. Basically, I just decided that we’re supposed to dress like monsters on Halloween and even if I didn’t think the costume was particularly funny, in great taste, or Gutmann’s judgment ideal, ultimately it just isn’t a big deal. Anyway, if you want more serious discussion of this point, see this post and related links at No Left Turns.
