Do you know / Have you met 80-90% of the gypsies? Do you know differences in the several groups like Roma and Sinti? How can you tell these horrible things based on a few observations by yourself and the experiences of one friend?
Trudy, cut down your anger, control emotions and dont show me this sign
tell me, how many gypsies you and barba met or known? so far, barba mentioned of her knowledge of one gypsy. others posted many words but none could bring any significant evidence to support their claims of gypsies being wonderful innocent walking angels. all they said was a big modern philosophy of "WE LOVE EVERYONE" and calling me a racist and other fantasies they dreamt of me.
on my part, I come from Kazakhstan. I saw gypsies almost everyday in my life. They were tolerated despite their actions and played a significant role of our society and culture. Every once and then other tabors would come through my village and go from house to house asking for money. I was times and times grounded by my parents for giving them money. I was a child. They asked I gave. They conned so many friends and relatives of mine anywhere, mostly at bazars, trains and town centres.
Then I lived in Poland another country that hosts a big community. I lived in Kedzierzyn-Kozle. I saw them everyday. Most of the time they spend in town square, begging and nagging, pulling your hand, your jacket. I hated going to town centre, I felt uncomfortable.
Then I moved to Opole, to the newly built district. And guess what neighbourhood I moved into? They dont work, but they have enough money to buy new apartments. Amazing? Immeditaely our buggy has disappered within a week, and then a bike.(oh, no UFO)
Now it looks like my statement is not based on a few experience and my friends story, doesnt it?
No. I know nothing about the divisons. I am not a big expert or any -ologist. I repeat, I speak of what I saw. But I know gypsies deny romanis and romanis deny gypsies.
