It was funny.

Hardly funny... I'm surprised something like that would be tolerated on facebook.

Gingers are evil.

you see the joke could be considered funny... but what's not funny is that people are so absolutely dim****tedly dumb that they'll actually go out and do it

Red hair is an indicator of a gene which gives people a much higher pain tolerance so kicking a ginger isn't too bad since they were built to take it.

still not very funny SF. it IS capable of being amusing... the trouble is some people who read this **** just can't understand what's a joke and what isnt

So what?

The crime is in kicking someone not in joking about it.

true... however, since we're both aware that people are bloody stupid, perhaps it's wise not to encourage that stupidity, out of a sense of kindness and responsibility?

PAHHHAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA

ONLY KIDDING!

hehehehehehehehe hahahaha ooohoohooooooo

phew

Takes one to know one....

You are sick...

“It does appear that redheads have a significantly different pain threshold and require less anaesthetic to block out certain pains,” Professor Ian Jackson of the Medical Research Council’s Human Genetics Unit, said.
