According to the LA Times there were two other incidents of incited violence against redheads from the school at Calabasas. This brings the total to three students who suffered violence as a direct result of a message posted on a facebook group. The message said that Friday was "Kick A Ginger Day" and redheads were targeted. This FB group is based on a 2005 episode of "South Park"
"Ginger" is a label given to people with red hair, freckles and fair skin.
No arrests have been made as these are not being considered as hate crimes.
FB on the other hand said that they rely on users reporting content that is not appropriate and this group not the message was reported.
"Facebook spokesman Barry Schnitt said the network relies on its more than 300 million users to report problems with groups or events. Staff members then follow up to see if groups should be removed or reported to law enforcement, he said.
Schnitt said he had not been made aware of this specific message or group.
"Inciting violence against any individual or group is against what we stand for and our policies," he said."
