I agree with you. If true, this is clearly a case of someone out to be a dick for its own sake and not for anyone's looks.Colour-Scientist said:
Yeah, up here in polite old Canada, there was a real-life Kick-a-Ginger Day celebrated around schools. Later, they arranged Hug-a-Ginger Day, because they think gingers are fickle.
And damnit, I'm apparently ginger enough to kick but not ginger enough to hug.

is this what happens when people don't have black or latino people around to be prejudiced against? How interesting.
They most certainly cannot. It's not discrimination if everyone gets a serve.Private Custard said:
And personally, I'm sick of people getting butthurt about making fun of disabled people. They're people in their own right, they can (perhaps not literally) stand on their own two. Anyone who says otherwise, I look down on you, because you implicitly state that disabled people are lesser people who cannot hold their own.
Which is, frankly, bullshit.
Not gingers though - those things are just evil. I wouldn't call them people.
In Herefordshire where I live a local retard invited a friend round to his house. This guy was dangling out of the window overviewing the street with what looked like a gun. You don't have guns in my area. Between local organised crime and the sas base you don't have fuckin guns unless your a farmer.
I laughed a bit too loud and he decided to come down and approach me. Now my back yard has a wall around it but is also the front compared to other houses. We also has a massive iron bar in the back. I have a Gladius and can swing that with finess but this bar is just fuckin. hard to swing but fuck it's intimidating. Jumped over, picked it up and jumped back over and just stood.
At first he paused. Then I raised the bar and let it hit the wall making a large metal clank. That prick ran back inside so fast it was hillarious.
The area I live in is not bad for violence due to the special forces base and everyone chilling the fuck out as everyone knows if you hit someone you are gonna get hit back and possibly harder.
But I have heard of these bastards who "hit and run" so to speak where a car is used to speed away from the victim. Mainly it's rascist, saying you vote BNP would still get you hated by the population so the few use these tactics to get at those not "local". The irony is most immigrants are polish and white in this farming community therefore it's really sad the token black and asian families get targeted.

Often times it's just best to leave it be. But, if he does it to you again (if it's a really small town that you live in, then odds are that he will), then if I were in your shoes I would get his license plate number down and get in touch with your local underground anti-fascist, anti-discrimination group, and I'm certain that they would give him a nice, long, and possibly painful, talking to.
It's hard to understand what some cretins get out of harassing strangers for something as innocuous as their hair. I guess it must be their idea of "fun", it makes them feel better about their pathetic, narrow-minded lives. I think there is a word, goddamn PHILISTINES, only fit to be eviscerated and left to rot.RadioactiveTurtle said:
That's fine. Just earlier this week on youtube (it was a starbound preview vid by a youtuber called Ockpii) I was a target of a furry-hating asshole of a troll. I mean, I make a suggestion for additional races, mostly wolves (my personal preference) and various species of large felines, and the guy says "shutup you furry".The Floating Nose said:
Now, being a little bit emotional at the time (female, and was coming out of my moon) I did get upset at that comment. So, I tried to reason with him (rather foolish of me, as it's A) feeding the troll, and B) I've never been really good with arguments.) He just kept repeating that one line, eventually adding on "go die in a ditch you're the scum of the earth and a cancer on the internet" at the end of it.
Being antifa and anti-discrimination, myself, that really hit home. I lost it, and brought out what were the "big guns" at the time (metaphorically speaking, and all in German). I'm not going to say what my return-threat to that guy was, but it involved excruciating pain (not by me, but by another source.) That was in my final post in that vid's comments section. For a few days afterwards, the offender got waylayed on all sides by several other people there (the guy stood his ground, but despite that it was a spectacular show to watch unfold).
Basically, what I'm trying to say is that I understand your anger completely, and that what you said about the offender of the OP in question isn't really getting carried away (at least, not compared to what I said to my offender.) So, if the OP's offender does this again, then I'd say talk it over with him first, and if that doesn't work, give him what is due.
*Edit* To clarify, what my offender stated later was that the reason he hates furries because they're all zoophiles, which, in reality, isn't true.
I love red hair.
Anyway I have never seen anyone be mean to to people with red except for the occasional ginger joke. Even then its mostly the gingers that seem to tell them.

Shit like this makes me sick, my city if full of bullies and so was my school. I myself was bullied. I can't walk around my city without bumping into atleast one stupid group of young idiots being all, fuck I don't even know what they are trying to be, bullies I guess. Who wakes up one morning and thinks to themselves, I wonder how many people I can make feel bad about themselves today?RadioactiveTurtle said:
Angry rant over...
Anyway, sorry to hear that friend, people are shit, my solution was to get an iPod so I could keep from hearing the world around me when I was outside. I am bullied because I don't dress or look how cool people look and dress. Seriously someone that judges or picks on you because of your hair colour can eat shit and die. Best to ignore it unless someone gets physical, then kick them in the balls because that is what they deserve.
I knoe people often jokingly make fun of gingers, but i never thought anyone was actually stupid/bigotted enough to ACTUALLY hate redheadsI rip on redheads all the time, but thats mostly because my roommate/close friend is a ginger and we generally make fun of each other on a regular basis so it's pretty light hearted. I did have a friend who was spit on for being an immigrant though (even though she was born here.)
I like redheads. Like Christina Hendricks, Marie McCray, Faye Reagen, Nikki Rhodes....
I've never heard of prejudice around from where I live. I only lived in a big city for 2 months and I haven't experienced anything like that considering my skin color.

Hmm... That's odd I've had people refusing to sell Resident Evil 4 to me before, just because I'm Mexican but nothing quite like that, I mean one person did spit on me and then put bubble gum in my hair once but that was because I'm "weird", and to be fair I got so mad because of that that I broke all the stuff that girl had lying on her desk, of course this was on elementary school, but anyway I think he was just trying to be an ass, though I've heard some people hate red-heads because they supposedly have no souls, which to me is really stupid because I don't believe in such a thing like a soul.
Holy crap I didn't think this crap still happened, yet so many people itt have a story. How is it that you guys are getting crap for such arbitrary stuff, yet my hands shake so much so constantly that I accidentally threw a pen clean across a full lecture theater during a test once (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essential_tremor) and the worst I get is people trying not to make eye contact?
Some things just don't make sense, dammit!

I personally had a kid spit on me and try to assault me on a few occasions.
From what I gathered, it's because I was quiet and not his friend.
I don't know where he is now, but I can guess it's prison or the bottom of a river.
