Default Kick a ginger day results in suspensions, beatings

So yesterday was kick a ginger day.

As many of you know this is a South Park joke, where Cartman hates gingers.

Apparently it started on a facebook page and spread like wildfire.

A buddy of mine said a whole bunch of kids at St. Francis were suspended. Yahoo has a brief story on it from out east:

http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/capress/0...k_a_ginger_day

I couldn't find any stories reporting on the actual incidents but apparently something like 13 kids got suspended from Francis.

While I find this mildly funny it is also disgusting that some kids took it way to far. My buddy says at least a few gingers got the crap kicked out of them at Francis.

Punishment, like the SP episode, should be to turn all of the guilty into gingers, so they can live the hellish life that being ginger is.

Some guy at SAIT yesterday walked up and booted me in the shin and since i had no idea what was going on I immediatly punched him in the face. He got up and yelled "What the fata! dont you know its kick a giner day" . I answered no and walked away. Not to mention the numerous times the kids i coach hockey tried to kick me. What a day to be a ginger

The people that kick strangers deserve to be punched. Funny idea though.

I suggest nail a blonde day. I'll start

Well played. Fools like that deserve punches in the face and shame.

The first thing I thought of when I read this was "oh man, if I was a ginger kid, I'd be milking this for a day off of school for the rest of my life".

Ok so apparently it was yesterday. My crappy computer at work doesn't load the page properly though so I can't see the edit button. Either way hilarious.

I was going to comment but it would only reveal my dirty mind.

Some news results.

Article on a rather heinous beating at Francis:
http://www.thespec.com/News/article/470441

Another one:

http://www.canada.com/story.html?id=...8-3b53f8fb26d4

Couldn't help but find these quotes from the articles funny:

Quote:
“It’s assault — it’s racist, too,” she said.
Quote:
"We do treat this sort of thing seriously," she said. "This is sort of inciting hate. It's a hate crime, really."

The way I see it, is it's funny if you kick a friend in a joking matter....not so funny if you kick a stranger.

Yeah I'm hoping FF15 isn't intending to just walk up to a random blonde stranger and nail her

Damn gingers, always causing trouble. If they were never born, this wouldn't have happened.

At Red Deer Comp there was widespread violence. One boy got severely hurt and kicked over 120 times. Another boy was mobbed and had the crap beat out of him. Foreign exchange students were hurt. Even girls were being kicked and beat up. Pretty bad when a ######ed juvenille show has that kind of influence. I hope they are all charged with assault.

It's a term from south park for red heads... usually with freckles, but I think any redhead will do.

I find it shocking that this stuff actually happened. It really seems so weird to me.

For those who think it's funny, I wonder how they would imbrace kick a Black Day, or kick an Asian day? All good fun unless your the brunt of the joke.
