Exclamation Gingers - Santa loves you too .....

Tesco has removed a Xmas Card which say's 'Santa loves Gingers too' ..... following complaints from a family of gingers (that's those kids in for a hell of a time now!).

It was removed because it's factually incorrect. Santa hates gingers

I think it's pretty amusing but I wonder how it would stand if it was about fat people or different races with different skin pigmentation colour (trying to be PC )

It would be deemed as discrimination against the fatties or racist. But being fascist is perfectly expectable? if your going to take the **** out of people born the way they are then why aren't they're cards for people with disabilities etc?

I think it should stay but they should make jibes about fat people, immigrants and all sorts to make it fair. I'm not defending the gingers btw I just want cards to send to fat friends

I'm quite known at work for my gingerist views

When I got in today, 4 different people had emailed the story to me, 3 more had emailed the picture

And 1 other had blown the picture up, printed it out and pinned it to my notice board
