It Depends on the Definition of “Trick”

Minorities less likely to trick or treat

WASHINGTON – Two-thirds of parents say their children will trick-or-treat this Halloween, but fewer minorities will let their kids go door to door, with some citing safety worries, a poll shows.

The survey found that 73 percent of whites versus 56 percent of minorities said their children will trick-or-treat on Wednesday.

That disparity in the survey is similar to the difference in how people view the safety of their neighborhoods, according to the poll by The Associated Press and Ipsos. Lower-income people and minorities are more likely to worry that it might not be safe to send their children out on Halloween night.

Never fear.  They’ll find some way to blame this on white people.  I’m surprised this article didn’t already.

Actually, I partially disagree with the article’s title.  Some minorities are actually more likely to trick.
