Is it racist to mistrust Roma ? by johnnythemonkey on 13 October 2010 7:56pm

The French have been criticised for deporting these people. Would you want them living next to you ?
Are Romanian gypsies an ethnic minority or just a criminal fraternity ?

Here's one story in the news today.

They can be a pain in the rear end, and no I don't trust them much. A lot of them steal lead off roofs and wires from railway lines. I know, I've been late for work many times because of it. However,French treatment of them is appalling! It is no better than Hitler's treatment of the Jews (and, surprise surprise, the Roma), or the BNP in Britain wanting to kick out the Asians. It's racist, cruel and totally disgusting!! Petty crime is NO EXCUSE for blatent racism.

Well John....what do YOU think?

I think that most Romanian gypsies are rogues and vagabonds. Most of Europe agree but at least the French and Italians have the nerve to take some action.
These people are subject to poverty and discrimination in Romania but when they move elsewhere what do they do ? Beg, steal and steal some more.

Yes well be careful....I think that most Scottish people are tightarses and robbers.

I think that most Australians are beautiful blonde( ish ) middle aged women....but I may be wrong.

I bloody 'love' you woman, we really should be a comedy double act.

Thank you so much for your wisdom earlier and I think Margaret would say the same. xxxxxx
