Due to supposed Nazi influence. You seriously cannot make this stuff up. ‘Stormtroopers’ banned from ‘Star Wars’-themed college reunion over alleged Nazi inspiration.

Graduates from Princeton’s 2012 class will not be able to attend a “Star Wars”-themed party in Stormtrooper gear due to fears that it will convey a racist message.

What do you say?

I say they're a bunch of merry men that go charging up the rear, holding all the balls.

Silly, but in this day and age, I'm not surprised.

God, I love how insane our world is. I eat so much popcorn these days. It would be even more insane and awesome if they only allowed black people to come as stormtroopers. Furthermore, if you showed up in stormtrooper face, there would be a bouncer that makes you take the helmet off, to affirm blackness. That might be the apex of irony.

They're the fucking villains. What's wrong with them being inspired by historical monsters?

Would that mean that by their logic that anyone dressing up as Darth Sidius is portraying a futuristic version of Hitler?

Seeing as how Star Wars happened a long, long time ago, isn't it the Nazis who imitated the Stormtroopers?

So really, there's nothing wrong dressing up like a Stormtrooper.
