Albinos have always been a problem. They are not a race so it is by definition not racist to deride them. Also gingers. Have you ever seen a ginger naked? Oh God.

There is a Lithuanian proverb,
"Kairi, zvairi, ir rudaki
Mesk i vandeni kad paskestu."

Edna translates this as...
"Left-handers, cross-eyed squinters and ginger-hairs,
Throw them into the water
And let them drown."

This is true.
