BRITISH COLUMBIA — Looks like the Facebook group titled “National Kick a Ginger Day, are you going to do it?” is being blamed for another attack against a red-head kid. The group was created as a joke and heavily influenced by the hilarious South Park episode “Ginger Kids” (watch episode) from 2005. The group suggests that on November 19th, you should kick a red-headed kid. Nanaimo high school student Aaron Mishkin, 13, was unaware of any of this when he went to Journey Middle School on Thursday, but found out quickly when he was continually kicked at school. “I became trapped trying to get through this press of people. And that’s when they kicked me from behind and I fell over.” When asked why a classmate was kicking him, he was told “You have no soul, so you probably can’t feel pain either.” *snicker* He was not the only red-head at the school targeted, and more than 20 students at were suspended.
I am still surprised the Facebook group exists. The episode is pretty damn funny and there is a lesson in it. The South Park guys are not advocating the kicking of red-heads. The group is, however. You all know me and I have one twisted sense of humor. I could easily use this article as a way to make my own off-color remarks against the red-head kids I don’t trust. You can thank this creepy fucker for that:
But how long would this group have lasted if it were “Slap a Black Kid Day” or “Punch A Jew Day”? My guess is not the year the Facebook group has. I wonder if it would still be seen as a joke. My guess is that after the news reports coming out of kids being assaulted everywhere, this Facebook group will be closed shortly.
