More news from the world of annoying and unconscionable. Your rights to look weird are now in jeopardy. Land of the free... as long as you're just like me. Sounds like the catholics truly have taken over.

Six friends spruced up in fake blood and tattered clothing were arrested in downtown Minneapolis on suspicion of toting "simulated weapons of mass destruction."

...

"They were arrested for behavior that was suspicious and disturbing," said Lt. Gregory Reinhardt, a police spokesman. Police also said the group was uncooperative and intimidated people with their "ghoulish" makeup.

...

"Given the circumstance of them being uncooperative ... why would you have those (bags) if not to intimidate people?" said Inspector Janee Harteau. "It's not a case of (police) overreacting."

=========================================================

Are you kidding me? So if some old lady doesn't like the color of my hair or my goth make up I could be arrested for being "DISTRUBING". Not overreacting? What do you think?

In general, I'm about as straight laced appearing as people get. However, I think that it is our God given right to dress/color/pierce/tattoo as we please!! Once you start picking on people for that dumb crap you'll have elitists that believe the world should be full of blue eyed blondes again...variety is the spice of life people, so embrace your differences!
