"Naughty Ninjas" is the seventh episode of the nineteenth season and the 264th overall episode of the animated television series South Park, written and directed by series co-creator Trey Parker. The episode premiered on Comedy Central on November 11, 2015. Continuing the season's theme of political correctness, the plot primarily lampoons police brutality.
A large number of police are called to South Park Elementary in full riot gear believing there is a danger there, when actually PC Principal has called them in to silence one child (Leslie) who has allegedly been speaking during school assemblies. Officer Barbrady comes in the back door with his gun drawn and accidentally shoots a student in the arm, resulting in him being fired by Mayor McDaniels. When Stuart McCormick calls the police because of the violent homeless people in the now-abandoned SodoSopa district, the police refuse to come as they do not want to be fired as well. Later, Kenny and Token use one of the buildings near Kenny's home to play as ninjas and they reveal that they can legitimately scare people away. More kids join this new ninja group and scare away the vagrants from the area, forcing them to relocate from SodoSopa to Shi Tpa Town and the Whole Foods Market, including Barbrady who has been evicted from his home. Over time, the residents of South Park become increasingly intolerant of the police, including vandalizing their vehicles and refusing service to them.
