Ten students at North Naples Middle School were sent home for a day after a girl told the head teacher that she believed she had been kicked for being Jewish, prompting further instances to come to light.

David Barkey of the Florida Anti-Defamation League said the organisation had been consulted over the incident."You are talking about an incident that has anti-Jewish bias if not anti-semitism. You have Jewish students being singled out, harassed and assaulted," he said.

Last year, four pupils were suspended from a middle school in St Louis over a "Hit a Jew Day" in which one Jewish student was slapped in the face.

Some believe the idea for such behaviour originally came from the satirical cartoon show South Park which featured a "Kick a Ginger Day" in an episode.

1. What is even sadder about this incident is that these children are too stupid to realize

that the South Park character involved in "Kick A Ginger Day" (and all of the anti-semitism on the South Park) is the show's antagonist which all the other characters on the program hate with a passion. To be more specific that antagonist is Cartman... a dumb, fat, racist, pig. So by copying a show like this they are saying "hey guys, look, I'm a dumb, fat, racist, pig! Ain't that cool!"

I mean, my gosh, this is a character that killed a child's parents, ground their bodies into chili, and then fed the chili back to that child. ... That is a character to be emulated?


I guess we have to remember that if 100 is the average IQ then that means 50% of our world's population has an IQ below 100. Maybe we shouldn't be that surprised after all.
