Just visit Rome in the early summer some time. The gypsies are a plague, especially on public transit. They train all their children to be skilled pickpockets. You can spot the little vermin because each carries a towel over its arm, the better to hide its other hand while picking your pocket. The alleged “bias” against them is just as reasonable as a “bias” against flea infested plague rats.
I’ve heard that they ‘acquire’ mannequins, dressmaker’s forms, etc. along with cheap (or stolen) old used pants and spend hour upon hour with a razor knife, perfecting their skills at slicing the pocket stitching so that they can do it almost instantaneously and without the victim feeling a thing.
You’re walking along, brush up against someone and then a couple of city blocks later you notice that half of your pants pocket is flapping in the breeze and your wallet is gone.
And pointing out or objectng to this is being redefined as ‘racism’.
I intercepted a Gypsy kid targeting my husband in Rome. She must have been 5 or 6 years old. What Gypsies do with their children (train them for crime) would be considered child abuse in this country.
