They Are Still Kicking Jews

Last November, I blogged about students kicking Jews in Florida.

Well, New York has joined the antisemitism:-

An incident in which Jewish students at Vestal High School were kicked by fellow students is being investigated by school officials, according to a parent, the local Jewish community and the school district.

"Apparently, there was an incident, or series of incidents, in which a number of students were involved in 'kick a Jew day,' in the Vestal school," said Michael Wright, chairman of community relations for the Jewish Federation of Broome County...the students were copying a prank inspired by the animated television show "South Park."...Students are invited via a widely circulated Facebook message to "kick a ginger" -- a redhead -- on a specific day.

"Kick a Ginger Day" has now apparently morphed into 'kick a Jew day," officials said. In November 2009, "kick a Jew day" at Naples Middle School in Florida made national news. The Vestal event came to Wright's attention after a parent and a local rabbi called him with reports about incidents that happened in early December.
