Quibeke Media, Canada, reported on October 13: With the arrival of Halloween, every household has been decorating it. Place pumpkin lantern in front of the door, place a skull, or a plastic human skeleton, and then use a spider web. In addition to shopping malls and shops, they also pretend to be magical and scare people in front of their own doors or in shopping malls.
This is a common decoration for Halloween in Canada, but what kind of decoration can be accepted by people and what kind of decoration cannot be accepted? This issue has recently sparked widespread discussion.
These discussions originated from Montreal a family, and Halloween decorations are somewhat alternative. The family hung a "dummy" on the tree in front of the door, with his head covered and his body tied up, with blood stains.
Because it is too realistic, many people and neighbors said, "This decoration is a bit over the boundaries...
It is really terrible and offensive."
This family is located in the Ahuntsic community in Montreal.
There was an adult-sized dummy hanging on the tree in front of his house, but the clothes and shoes on the dummy were all real. The dummy was "hanged" on this tree, with a blood-stained pillowcase on his head. Tape tied the dummy's ankles, knees, waist and chest. First, it plays a fixed role, and also prevents the dummy's clothing and shoes from being blown away by the wind...
It seems that the "hanged" person is tortured to death, which does not violate the holiday connotation of Halloween, nor does it violate the law...
When this decorated photo was shared online and on social media, it quickly sparked a heated debate among everyone.
Many people think that this decoration is quite terrible and is not suitable for the happy atmosphere of Halloween. "Some people also think that those who see it will be shocked and feel very uncomfortable because it is really too real."
Many people say that this is nakedly suggesting "suicide" and "lynching". What will the children who see this decoration think? This is obviously beyond the scope of Halloween jokes.
The homeowner who installed the decoration, "Matthew Farah" said in an interview with CTV News on Wednesday that he would not remove the decoration.
He said that the police came to the door, but this is a Halloween decoration, and it is no different from skulls in front of the door. After the conversation, he added a sign to the tree next to the dummy, with a word written on it: Fake.
Farra said: "It is obviously fake. It has nothing to do with suicide. It is just a Halloween decoration. I don't know why these people can't see it?"
There are also many voices supporting the homeowner online. These people think that it is creative and enhances the festive atmosphere. Critics clearly lack a sense of humor.
Someone commented: "I really miss people's sense of art and humor. Halloween should be horrible, weird, and disturbing."
But in comparison, supporters are obviously a minority.
Some citizens believe that it is obviously not enough to just put a "fake" label. Only by letting the producer take it off is the most appropriate way.
Actually, Halloween is about looking for fun, but it’s not that you can’t hang it, but that you can’t hang everything up... If you hang ghosts or goblins, there’s no problem, because they will indeed bring people the fun of Halloween...
But now your hang is a “hanged dummy”...
This easily reminds people of the real world outside the myth...
Kidnapping, murder, terrorist attacks, war, drugs, abuse... This is completely different from the imagination brought to people by fighting and killing in myth.
