Apparently Cartman moved to England

Fans of South Park will remember the Ginger Kids episode, where Cartman leads a crusade against so-called ginger kids…

Cartman: Because their skin is so light, ginger kids must avoid the sun, not unlike... (changes slides) vampires

…and then when his friends die his hair red to teach him a lesson, he leads the other ginger kids in rebellion.
Cartman: (over a megaphone) We gingers are proud people. We are the descendants of great Americans such as Ron Howard and others. We will not be discriminated against any longer, for we are a great race.

Well, fiction seems to be meeting reality with this very odd story out of England. And all joking aside, what the hiseck is going on over there anyway?
Red-haired family forced to move

A Newcastle family claim they have been forced from two homes by thugs who have targeted them over their ginger hair.


Kevin and Barbara Chapman say they and their four children, aged between 10 and 13, have endured years of taunts, smashed windows and violence.


They said they moved from Walker to Newbiggin Hall to try to escape the bullying, and then again to Kenton Bar.


Son Kevin, 11, said he was recently punched in a street attack. Newcastle Council is "discussing the situation".
