'Kick-a-ginger day' left redheads with legs covered in bruises
When Nanaimo high school student Aaron Mishkin appeared for classes Thursday, he heard his classmates talking about "kick-a-ginger day."

So now it's "Kick A Ginger" day. Because I have been reading the articles in the Globe, the Vancouver Sun, and looking at other comments pages, I am saddened to see that a group of people who are defined by their hair colour are being targeted for violence. Some say that the media is to be blammed, so bann SOuth PArk and other such programs. Others say that cartoons like SOuth PArk are designed to teach us moral lessons.

The teenager behind a "Kick a Ginger" group on Facebook is being investigated by police after reports of attacks on redhead children.
Nearly 5,000 people joined the online campaign which urged members to "get them steel toes ready" for a day of booting this week.
The website appears to have been inspired by an episode of the cartoon South Park, in which a young character called Cartman describes people with red hair as "evil" and "soulless".
