Ethics Galactic Empire Shills for Salvation Army: Super "Right" or Super "Wrong"?

Posted by Wm.™ Steven Humphrey on Mon, Dec 19, 2011 at 1:29 PM

So I'll strolling downtown on Saturday, when what to my wondering eyes should appear on the corner of Morrison and sixth? THIS: Members of the Galactic Empire collecting money for the Salvation Army.

So on one hand, I'm pissed that some of my fave characters (Boba Fett was there, too!) were shilling for the "anti-gay" Salvation Army. On the other hand, who else but the most evil characters in the universe should be shilling for the "anti-gay" Salvation Army?

How should I feel about this?? MAKE UP MY MIND FOR ME!

I'm not familiar with the Darth Portly character on the right there.

As a member of "Samuel L Jaxxon," the winning team at last night's Star Wars Trivia at the East Burn, I have no opinion other than to reiterate that I was on the winning team at Star Wars Trivia last night.

I also got a shot of the storm troopers, some typical Portlanders, a man with a freakishly small head...and that's Sarah Palin with her back to the camera. Really!

And there was also this, which I'm trying to forget.
