Red face BBC Launch attack on GINGERS!!

Full Story

So far they've cracked this joke:

"What's the difference between a terrorist and a redhead?"

"You can negotiate with a terrorist."
And then gone on to call them:

Carrot-top, copper-top, ginger-nut, ginger minger, bluey (among Australians), Duracell, Ronald McDonald, Simply Red, Queen Elizabeth.
One ginger nut goes on to say:

"I was on the Tube, pregnant, and I was really humiliated by this drunk yob. He was shouting 'do the cuffs and the collars match?'
Now they want it treated as RACISM:

Conservative backbencher Patrick Mercer, when recently sacked for alleged racism, sought to get himself out of a hole by comparing treatment of black soldiers to those with red hair.

"That's the way it is in the Army. If someone is slow on the assault course, you'd get people shouting: 'Come on you fat *******, come on you ginger *******, come on you black *******.'"
There's more SHOCKING revelations in the article, and don't FORGET that ALL this is copied straight from the BBC site so it can't be racist or abusive!!

Unless you're a feckin ginger top

That mean's you've either married a Ginger, or your Mother was playing away.

Nowt wrong with Gerri Halliwell.In fact surely this must turn in to a thread of pics showing gorgeous ginger stunners

(please be sensible and include cleavage/bums too or the pics will be absolutely worthless to ardent ginger admirers)

Ginger people have no soul.

I have a friend who is ginger. He tries to fit in and be normal but people can tell... There is talk of my town having a "Ginger Quarter" where gingers can mix with other gingers in bars and clubs without fear of abuse.

There was a ginger rights protest in Russia a few weeks ago and ginger campaigners were attacked

I think gingerness is wrong and it is right for it to be socially unaceptable. I therefore applaud any biggoted prejudice in that direction.

Thats actually true. Its always the first descriptive thing that comes to mind.

"In Australia, this isn't a prejudiced comment, it is a term of endearment. As an Australian living in London, I do not comprehend the prejudice surrounding red-head's. A red-head woman is considered beautiful down under!
Laurel, London"

superb quote. Wonder if it was deliberate.
Went out with a red head for 9 years. I do like pale skinned girls (not sickly pale!). did get some rather obvious questions from my mates to start with.

My daughter has red her, despite neither of us having it. she gets loads of admiring comments, but then she is 3, and cute.
Red haired men though - different matter!
