This is what happens when America influences a foreign culture.

What the fark is wrong with the other 32% ????

Can we kick them out of Spain while we are fantasizing?

What does America have to do with this? What culture did they supposedly influence in this case?

It was a joke.

About 70,000 Gypsies in Italy hold Italian passports

That would certainly make expelling them difficult.

When I lived in Spain I had to deal with Gypsies stealing things, anything left outside from garden furniture to clothes were pinched. My neighbour told me of a time she was taking in the sun in her front garden, decided to go to the loo, when she came back there were gypsies in her front room takin' her stuff. Served as a warning to me to lock the front before so much as turning my back.

I'm pretty sure everyone in Europe hates gypsies, at least everyone I've ever talked to about it.

There is no hate in Europe anymore.

That's right, America is the only country with race relation problems. Luckily, the UN is on its way to save us from the bigotry.

You ever lived next to a gypsy, subby? Well, let me tell you something. They smell. They smell, and they're always baking these curses into cakes, and then cursed guys who've lost a bunch of weight are coming around and buying the curse cakes, and you can't hardly do nothing because it's all smelly gypsies and emaciated cursed guys as far as the eye can see. Get rid of 'em all, that's what I say. But for God's sake don't let them touch you.

This guy??

High fiiiive

Great, Europe's hatred towards anyone not of their own ethnicity shines through again. Gypsies are the Palestinians of Europe. Let's hope it doesn't degenerate into suicide bombings.

Wow. Uh, that exposes a pretty great ignorance.

Are you trolling?

Gypsies are scum and thieves.

/been ripped off by them twice

Since my girlfriend is of Romany descent, I'm not getting a kick out of this.

submitter: You know who else hated gypsies?

Mussolini?

We need to bring these poor downtrodden gypsies to America!

the only gypsies i want expelled are the ones that live under my bed

/partial to the periwinkle blue

Noam Chimpsky: We need to bring these poor downtrodden gypsies to America!

Not unless they know how to swing a leaf blower.

Fascist Italians? Come on!

I thought that all Europeans were enlightened, tolerant, superior beings, who looked down their noses at American intolorance and hate.

According to my Italian criminal associate law abiding friend, all crime in Italy is done by gypsies.

It's the actions, not the ethnicity that are the problem. One man's sterotype is another man's demographic.

what palestinians should do if they want to get rid of the jews in israel is to amass all of europe's gypsies and send them to israel while dropping tear gas on them.

/nothing scares jews more than gypsy tears

moops: Gypsies are scum and thieves.

Or you're just gullible and easily taken.

Tramps and thieves are still ok, though?

the Romanians probably hate them the most. giving them a bad name and so on.

I hate farkin pikeys.

Come on people it is not Gypsies that people hate. It is anyone that steals, intrudes on our life, liberty or pursuit of happiness. They don't hate Gypsies because they are Romani or look a certain way. They are using a convenient ethnic description to describe a large group of people that are doing harm in the world.

If tomorrow all the Italians over 6' 6" (78 inches = 1.9812 meters) started stealing, running cons, and playing music of their own creation then there would be a call for taking care of the "di altezza persona" (Tall Person) problem.

It is not bias to hate a behavior that harms you and the people around you. It is bias to think that all people that look a certain way or come from a certain area are the same as the last guy that did you harm.

No.

The Zulus would have won if they'd kept their eyes closed.

What about the tramps and thieves?

True story

A gyspy woman once tried to sell me a sprig of heather. When I refused to buy it, she cast a spell on me.

OptiFark: It is bias to think that all people that look a certain way or come from a certain area are the same as the last guy that did you harm.

Which is, you know, what they're doing.

Unright: Wow. Uh, that exposes a pretty great ignorance.

It wasn't against the Palestinians or the Gypsies. It was highlighting a people who "no one wants" and has general prejudice against them (Palestinians are treated like garbage in Arab countries). Now the Italians are stirring the pot and attacking them. Bad idea.

Yep, this is a very bad analogy (insert entire violent history of the PLO here. I don't think the Israelis oppressed them as much as the Arabs did). However, if the Gypsies decide to defend themselves, this will get worse in a very bad way, which was my point.

As I said, not the best analogy, fail, etc.

At first I was sympathetic towards the Italians, but then...

Young Neapolitans who threw Molotov cocktails into a Naples Gypsy camp this week, after a girl was accused of trying to abduct a baby, bragged that they were undertaking "ethnic cleansing"

In a second poll, 81% of Italian respondents said they found all Gypsies, Romanian or not, "barely likeable or not likeable at all", a greater number than the 64% who said they felt the same way about non-Gypsy Romanians.

Yeah, these bigots can go fark themselves.

skinink: I hate farkin pikeys.

I came here for the Snatch (pun intended, indeed) references.

My mother's friend went to Spain, and she didn't even did more than five stepd outside the hotel, that a gypsi girl (possibly 17-18) stole her bag. She chased her down, knocked her, pinned her and demanded the bag. She wouldn't let go and tried to squirm her way out, but my mom's friend wouldn't let go either (she's a judo teacher).

The girl bit her hand but still she wouldn't let go. The people around her would yell that she gave the bag back, and suddenly it flew away. She took it and the girl ran off.

/In other words, never mess with a mexican woman's bag
//Ever

There are gypsies in the US too. Rented out a house and they had several families in there and they maliciously trashed the place. The local police created some minitask force (informal) for other problems.

In italy my sister had her face scratched and a little gypsy girl took her wallet from her purse. The girl dropped the wallet and the mom yelled at her for dropping it right out in the open. Felt sorry for her.

Why can't we all get along?

Guidos marginalizing others because they're different?



That's rich coming from them.

I didn't know 32% of Italians are Gypsies.

the voices in your head: Tramps and thieves are still ok, though?

wanago bob: What about the tramps and thieves?


Looks like you two are Cher-ing the same idea.

You sure don't know anything about gypsies. The fact that they are holding the passports doesn't mean it's theirs.


devildog123: I thought that all Europeans were enlightened, tolerant, superior beings, who looked down their noses at American intolorance and hate.

Did you buy that strawman willingly, or did someone shove it down your throat?

hate for gypsies hasn't got much to do with ethnicity, it has to do with the fact that many of the motherfarkers are thieves.

Gypsies mugged me in Rome, so I'd want them out too.

bbcard1: It's the actions, not the ethnicity that are the problem. One man's sterotype is another man's demographic.

Yup. And Americans hate black people because they're a bunch of thugged out crack heads who want to sleep with our white women. We're totally justified in that too.

Idiot.
