I think everyone can stay calm. That ewok is the first image result if you google “ewok”.
Yeah, both are definitely photoshopped. People sure do love to lie on the Internet for attention.
Well shit.
I was thinking that someone who went through the trouble of making such authentic costumes is probably known to the neighbors for them anyway.
And I think this is the source of the Chewbacca picture.
you dress your child up as… game… in America?

For anyone who’s never seen the show, please do. It’s fucking amazing. It’s so bad it’s good.
Imagine getting your kid shoot for that
Question to americans:
In which situation you have the highest chance to get shot:
- Dressed as an ewok in the forest at night during hunting season
- Regular thursday in a high school
- Having slightly darker skin while being pulled over
Yes.
yes…but 3.
I could find 0 incidences of ewoks being shot in a forest outside of Return of the Jedi.
Rather than “all shootings” which is harder to find details of I’ll go with death statistics for the shootings:
In 2020–21, there were a total of 41 school-associated violent deaths in the United States, which included 20 homicides and 17 suicides. Source
Traffic stop killings In 2021 it was 117, according to the Mapping Police Violence database.
According to this Police Shootings Database Hispanic and African Americans constitute 45.4% of all police killings.
Meaning that of the 117 in 2021 you’d expect ~53 of them to be “Slightly darker skinned”
So 24 school associated (ruling out suicides) vs 53 slightly darker skin means you’re 2.2x as likely to be shot by a cop for being brown, or 4.875x as likely to be shot by a cop in a traffic stop overall.
Hope that helps.
