Want To Make Your Front Yard As Scary As Possible For Halloween? Might I Suggest Going With An ISIS Theme?
(Source) – Politically-charged Halloween statements have seldom been successful in the past – and this one is proving no different. A family in New Jersey have upset some in the community of Butler for decorating their home with what they say is an ‘anti-ISIS’ theme, using a hanging mannequin representing a United States soldier and a terrorist standing nearby wearing a mask of President Obama and brandishing a machete. Behind the scene is a depiction of Jordanian pilot, Lt. Muath al-Kasaesbeh in a cage. He was horrifically burned alive by ISIS after being captured following the shooting down of his jet fighter earlier this year. While some neighbors have called the set-up ‘tasteless and un-American’, the homeowner said that real horror is more frightening than fake. ‘We in this house do not like ISIS,’ the homeowner, who asked that he only be identified as Matt, told NJ.com. ‘What greater scary man is there than the real threat among us?’
