Denise Austin's Tricks For Burning More Calories Right Now
Meet Betty White's Ape Namesake
As if redheads didn't have it bad enough, with their easily sunburned skin and their inability to wear bright pink, now teenagers have decided to make their lives even worse with an official Kick a Ginger Day.The children in charge of the ginger-beating organized via a Facebook group message reminding everyone that November 20 was National Kick a Ginger Day.
The event was probably inspired by a 2005 episode of South Park in which Cartman explains the inherent evil of redheads.
The acts of violence toward redheads, which some consider hate crimes, were not limited to one school -- across Canada students were kicked in the shins by fellow students for the entire day while walking down the hall, and at least three children suffered at the feet of their peers in Calabasas, Calif., in attacks that might be classified as assault with a deadly weapon.
Facebook spokesman Barry Schmidt told the Los Angeles Times that groups that promote violence are in violation of the site's policies, and the "Kick a Ginger" group will be investigated.

I heard about this day in my school all the way in jersey from that group. I have red hair and a friend of my kicked me lightly as a joke. Joke not funny at all,my friend almost faced assault charges for that and could have been expelled from school. That's no better than kicking someone because they're black.

"Kick a ginger"?! Thank heavens this is something that never caught on in America. This brainless, sensless, unfounded hatred and mistrust of someone just because of their colouring is just another way useless tossers try to put themselves above others when really they have not one redeeming quality to elevate them above the common garden slug (my profound apologies to garden slugs everywhere). No, I am not red-haired, by the way.

We did this in my school, more as a joke. The ginger kids all laughed about it, and we weren't beating them up or anything, just tapping them. No one took it seriously.

I understand that this is a joke, but not a funny one. Just because many ginger-haired people may not be as attractive as others does not give other people to discriminate against a minority (even if meant as a widespread joke).
