Looked at some of the comments on there on the video.  Someone drives on the wrong side of the road, time for a genocide!  Euros never learn.

If only that were their sole offense.  I watched a few of the Gypsy Wedding episodes that my wife was watching.  Dunno how the UK tolerates them as much as they do.

All the chicks in the UK one were fat little ugly cows.

Yes, I watched a few episodes.

I was bored.

What did they do the Gypsies do in that show to justify murdering a separate group of people?

Well, in my wife's mind the Irish Travelers' fashion sense was justification enough.

I'm pretty liberal even by UK standards but there's no getting away from the fact that Travellers, almost invariably it seems, are nasty, greedy people.

There are unpleasant and dysfunctional cultures and sub-cultures out there, tolerance and anti-racism should not preclude recognition of that.

I don't like their kind.
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

You don't see that many adult Gypsies here in Georgia  -- it's mostly just women with their packs of children who wrap themselves around your appendages until you give them food/money. It's incredibly annoying, but it's all they've ever been taught.

The other day I saw a little Gypsy child and his grandmother drinking beers together in the park, and the kid made sure to throw the bottles in the trash afterward. That gave me hope.
