Heavy: An Alabama elementary school teacher is under fire after wearing black face as part of a Halloween costume. Heath Morrow was dressed as Kanye West, while his wife, Shannon, portrayed West’s wife, Kim Kardashian in a photo she posted to Facebook. The photo was later deleted, but it was uploaded to Reddit on Sunday. Morrow, of Decatur, Alabama, also wore a blazer, white T-shirt, gold chain and sunglasses as part of the controversial costume. “I didn’t know dressing up as a celebrity couple would cause so much controversy,” Shannon Morrow told the New York Daily News. “There was no malicious intent in this costume. It’s for HALLOWEEN, the one time a year it is okay. Some of my husband’s best friends are black. There was no racial intent whatsoever.”
Normally we play the “don’t be a PC dooshnozzle” card at Turtleboy Sports, but at some point you cross the line into dumbassery. And that’s what this was. Pure dumbassery. Hey moron – it’s 2015. You can’t wear blackface anymore. I don’t give a shit what your intent was. If you don’t realize that simple rule and can’t foresee this being a problem when you voluntarily upload the picture to social media, then you’re obviously an idiot. The fact that you’re a teacher and don’t know this explains everything I need to know about the state of public schooling in Alabama.
Secondly, fuck this guy for having a smoking hot wife. He’s ugly, he’s paid an Alabama’s teacher’s salary, and he’s obviously very, very dumb. It defies all forms of logic that this man should be blessed with a smoking hot wife. He teaches 5th grade. This is his yearbook picture:
Life is not fair.
Thirdly, if he was gonna go blackface, then I suppose Kim and Kanye were the most appropriate choice. After all, they are also two of the dumbest people who have ever existed.
Fourthly, this will no doubt about it be used as a way to sell diversity training. Honestly, it might actually be needed in Alabama. Up here in Massachusetts people are smart enough not to do this. That’s what pisses me off about the Circlejerk and Mosaic. You wanna fix racism? Move to Alabama. But instead Joyce McNickles moved FROM Mississippi and came to the most tolerant and progressive state in the country to try to incite racial tension.
(seriously, I hate this man)
Damn you Heath Morrow. Damn you.
Fifthly, it’s asinine that this guy should lose his job for this. It legitimately sounds like he didn’t know any better. Is the guy a good teacher? Does he come to work every day and help kids learn? If so then obviously we shouldn’t get rid of him because he made one stupid mistake. It would be one thing if he did it maliciously, but clearly this dumbass doesn’t know any better. Get his ass some diversity training and he’ll be all fixed up.
Lastly, I am sure we will get a barrage of comments about how Turtleboy has gone soft and how we’re selling out to the PC police and blah, blah, blah. Listen up angry white folk – black people are not halloween costumes. You can still be Kanye West without going blackface. Just dress up like a huge asshole, offend everyone you meet, and everyone will figure out that you’re Kanye West. If you’re 5’8″ and you want to be Tom Brady for Halloween, you don’t go out and by stilts. You throw on a Brady jersey and you’re Tom Brady. You don’t have to physically recreate every aspect of the person you are going as.

Should have used a can of spray tan. What’s the difference? This is a Kanye West costume not a minstrel show. I wonder if chick’s will be donning strap ons and going as Bruce Jenner.
Black celebrities do white face all the time, snoop and nick cannon made albums in white face. Cake walk is a cake walk no matter the color
I think Heath Morrow is good looking. You being obsessed with his wife’s good looks is just creepy, Turtleboy. I have a picture of YOU from HS but I’m sure if I posted it, you would delete it. LOL YOU were no prize by a long shot!
I guess this proves it. White skin is THICKER than black skin. LOL
Hey TB, you are wrong on this one. It was a harmless costume. How many people have dressed up as the Trumps, the Clintons, the Kennedys? It’s ok because they are WHITE? Nope. Don’t think so. Kimye is a high profile media whore. If someone of color dressed up as Donald Trump it would be funny, so what’s the difference?
I’m wondering what ELSE would be shouted from the rooftops if Kim Kardasian were a person of color and the person portraying her wore her “big ass” prosthetic.
If you wear a store bought mask of a black guy is that racist ?? Is it just the make up that makes it racist ??
Will have to wait to hear What Jeffrey Spurts Neal thinks after he is done stalking TurtleBoy… After all he was born a poor black child. He remembers the days, sittin’ on the porch with my family, singin’ and dancin’ down in Mississippi
So he will be the best to tell us how we should feel about this
That fartbox
Would any white person be offended if a black guy painted his face white, put on a swoop of blond hair and dressed up as Donald Trump for Halloween? People have to grow some thicker skin. It would have been stupid if they went as Kayne and Kim and he DIDN’T paint his face. Could they have dressed as another couple? Sure. But what is the big deal? Ugh.
I agree with you 100%, Patricia! I thought the same thing. It was funny. And ANYONE dressing up as the Donald would be funny too….regardless of race.
Shes smokin up until i saw her ass. WTF? Is that Photoshopped?
I believe she is wearing padding because kim kardashian is well known for her overly-developed posterior.
She’s Kim Kardashian for halloween
Read much?
WOW! Seriously? You’ve never seen a Kardashian?
To Chris from Georgia. I hardly thing so. Go to Walmarts or Waffle House. can’t believe how big and ugly and hardly 20.
LOL!!!! Two places i steer clear of!!!!
This is an example of the ridiculous world we live in. America is too easily offended, time to step aside for a country and people who are ready and willing to crush us. China ? ISIS?
Aw, poor TB’s jealous because he doesn’t have a smokin’ hot wife. I know, it doesn’t make sense, because he’s way more of a dooshnozzle than he claims this guy to be. Hmm, maybe life is fair.
How the fuck do you know if he has a hot wife or not? Stalker much? You need to uo your trolling game Jeff. Whats wrong? Nothing interesting going on in that White Town (Sturbridge) that you spew your racist KKK and gay hate speech from?
get a life troll.
Down south, there’s so many hot chicks, all you need is a job, any job, and you’ll get one. This ruins my Rerun from What’s Happening costume idea.
What about dressing up as Worf?
Are you dressing up as the character, or as Michael Dorn wearing makeup?
He was wearing makeup? Just assumed it was a Rocky Dennis situation.
But, either way, he’d still have to be in blackface to be Worf. Because Michael Dorn is black.
At that rate, just paint yourself gold and go as Data. Have your smokeshow wife be Troi.
First of all TB, All southern women are hot!!! Second, last time I looked Kanye West wasn’t white. I think the hippies need to chill out here!.
Have you seen Honey Boo-boo’s Mom?
My apologies as I should have noted that all southern women are hot EXCEPT those that you see at Walmart and Waffle House!!
