Guy Fawkes Night is basically celebrating an historic victory in the War on Terrorism, albeit one that happened centuries ago. I don't know if it'd catch on in this day and age, though - burning effigies of captured/killed terrorists, I mean. It seems kind of distasteful, somehow. Yet, because Guy Fawkes is an old tradition, it's tolerated. Even when many people - kids, especially - know little about what the day's celebrating.
