So, I was just spat at.

[Private Custard]

Not gingers though - those things are just evil. I wouldn't call them people.

Or Australians. They're just the dregs we didn't want!

 

[FamoFunk]

Sounds like a right chavvy ****. Was he with people? Group of chavs in cars always act like utter knobs.

 

[madster11]

Maybe you did something to that person and they decided to get back at you, but the only insult they could think of a split second before they spat at you was 'he's a ginger'.
If you were fat it would've been 'tubby' or something.

 

[crazyarms33]

Well it's because you don't have a soul obviously...

All kidding aside...that's really f*cked up. I'm sorry it happened to you.

 

[SL33TBL1ND]

Like others here, I've only ever seen people make light-hearted jokes on the subject.

 

[itsthesheppy]

Whenever someone shouts or does something towards me out of a car, I just have to laugh it off because it is just so cowardly. It's the ultimate in petty cowardice; he's essentially fleeing, quickly, in an armored chariot.

 

[Frankster]

Wait so hating/bullying red heads wasn't just a joke in south park? o0

The only gingers i knew in school were all girls i had crushes on so can't say i have this hatred of the red haired person. Can't say i ever seen such a thing, though I have seen bored teenagers spitting into each others mouths at the metro... (i don't understand that either, wouldn't that be considered gay? can't keep up with kids trends it seems :\)

 

[Valkyira]

Walking home from school with my friend a couple of years ago, some douchebag chavs spat on him while riding past on a bike just because he's Indian.

Don't beat yourself up about it, some people are just born stupid, ignorant and thuggish.

 

[Flames66]

For having red hair.

I was just walking home, with my hood down minding my own business and this idiot pulled up next to me, called me a "Ginger C***" and spat at me before speeding off. Now, personally this is just an extreme of what I usually experience, name calling, rude jestures, bullying, whatever; I'm used to that by now. But this, this just got to me. This just for having red hair, it baffles me.

Have you guys ever seen anything like this in your home town?

Edit:
I'll be honest, the thing that pissed me off the most was that I couldn't stand up for myself, he drove off too quick.

That actually shocks me. Where are you from (if you don't mind me asking)? I have seen the odd joke about redheads in my area but if anyone was to take it that far they would probably be lynched by the locals.

 

[Girl With One Eye]

What a dick. Don't worry about it too much, people will find any reason to pick on someone to make themselves feel better, and some people are just jerks. When I was at school, there was this group of guys who used to piss in bottles and then drive around looking for homeless people to throw it at.

 

[averydeeadaccount]

my theory, he had just learn how to project his spit, and decided to try it out on the next passer-by. seriously, that sounds completely meaningless and silly, don't worry about it.

 

[TheFederation]

i don't even understand where this "ginger racism" came from... it could be from that south park episode, but they were making fun of people who bully people over stupid small things, like the colour of your hair

 

[Fishyash]

That driver was probably trying to slow down the amount of drool pooling up in his car seat.

 

[Lt._nefarious]

Well I get hassle for having long, messy hair and I've had people shout bad things at me for wearing a bright green Hawaiian shirt (I live in Scotland)...

Although I never got spat at for looking bad I did get spat at for being British while in Spain... that was fun...

As for the guy that spat on you its probably because he's been brought up like that and just found it his girlfriend's got ginger pubic hair or something...

 

[Colour Scientist]

If your profile is true you're from Italy? Not surprised to hear that, then. Anyone I've talked to that has gone to Italy, at least the girls, have said that the guys there are all like that.

You'd probably be shocked by how not like that things are where I am (western canada)

Ireland, I'm afraid. I suppose it's easy enough to confuse our flag for theirs. I didn't realise Italy had such a bad reputation.

 

[SuperSamio64]

I was once spat on for wearing a football shirt my dad got me from Peru (obviously it had the Peruvian team colours).

 

[Sean Steele]

Ever noticed people are assholes when they are in a car and you are not? Cars pretty much naturally make people assholes because it puts them in a psycological understanding that they are the only person present.

 

[SEXTON HALE]

That idiot sounds like an absolute prick I know what its like to have to deal with shit like that.
Pay no attention to that fucker and it will be alright.

what is wrong with people? to actually go out of their way to do something like that is unreal, hopefully he crashed later and had to pay a lot for repairs.

(note: joking part)
I mean yeah you have red hair but it's not your fault, you wouldn't spit at someone in a wheelchair would you?
