Ginger Jihadis: Why Redheads are Attracted to Radical Islam (school bullying often a factor)
Brietbart.com ^ | September 9, 2014 | Milo Yiannopoulos and Jeremy Wilson

Dozens of young redheaded men and women are replacing the ritual bullying of the playground with the ritual strictures of radical Islam, perhaps – at least according to some experts – as a result of the bullying and persecution they endure early in life.

You’ve likely already made the connection between ginger hair and home-grown Islamic radicals yourself. Subconsciously, perhaps, from newspaper reports showing carrot-topped wannabe jihadis from Bradford, and TV clips of auburn brothers in east London. What you probably don’t know is just how vastly over-represented redheads are in the ranks of Islamist converts.

There are no surveys of jihadis, of course. The Quilliam Foundation, a counter-extremism organisation, told us that no one keeps reliable data on white converts to Islamism. So news reports probably represent the best data set available to researchers.

I have no doubt that the “Asians” are drawn to redheads.

This is shocking, but when given thought, it makes terrible sense. Any parent who enrolls their children in public schools when they have other options is not taking their responsibilities seriously.

I’ve been looking around for a while looking for the best reason to homeschool. Is the best reason yet, or does it only apply to parents whose children have red hair?

I have a red headed step brother, but he seems pretty cool.

I find this conclusion highly dubious..

“red-headed women less likely to be approached..”

From what I remember, the redheads were usually swamped at clubs and bars..

My limited experience with red headed people seems to show they have a higher tolerance for pain. Anyone joining the Islamic faith can expect to try the limits of that tolerance.
About 15 years ago, an anthropologist put forth an interesting paper saying that the Neanderthals didn’t die out but just moved to Scotland where they then blended in to the rest of humanity. While I have great respect for those rugged people, some of the most interesting variations in human form seem to belong to that community.

The letters: “N,” “I,” “G,” “G,” “E,” & “R”

Spell a hateful and derogatory word, used to abuse and denigrate - GINGER!

I’d post that popular eyewash pic of the blessed redhead on her back on the grass but I can’t find it.

I don't remember this particular kind of bullying when I was growing up in America; but it is rife in England. Cannot figure it out, unless it is prejudice against Celts, as the Irish and Scots have many redheads among them.

I unwittingly participated in an experiment: for many years I brought teddy bears to a hospital once a week, and placed five or six of them at a time on the donation table for wounded soldiers to select for themselves, their wives or kids. I brought bears that reflected typical human hair colors: white, ivory, beige, "ginger", tan, brown and black. I noticed that white people sometimes chose brown or black bears and African-Americans sometimes chose white or ivory bears; but almost every week, the "gingers" were the last bears chosen.

I’ve met a couple drop-dead gorgeous redheads.

There is a saying,”red on the head, crazy in bed”.

Sounds like a British thing.

Which I really don't get, since if you have red hair, you or your ancestors are probably more likely to be from that part of the world more than from anywhere else.

Is it an anti-Irish thing? Or just that English redheads are particularly freakish and Rupert Grintish?

Is that the Scots Pathers intimidating black voters, or what?

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

The bullying alone would be enough of a reason.

Can't have any of that being different stuff.

Have you read the book, The Giver? Everyone the same. No differences.

The movie is pretty good, too, BTW. I went and saw it last week.
