Same as I recall. I wonder if they have moved uo to carrying at least .40.
Now, if they could just find a way to start a holy war between the wingless pigeons (gypsies) and the Moors, Spain would be an infinitely better place.
A comparison of the DNA profiles of the two populations might prove interesting, now that I think of it.....
LOL! Although I believe Gypsies are actually thought to have come from India rather than the Middle East...
A couple of years ago, I was attending a noon Mass in a church in Madrid when the door burst open and a small troop of gypsies (probably Romanian gypsies) burst in.
They roamed up and down the aisles and finally fixed on a little old lady in the back of the church. One went up and asked her for money, and the others started grabbing at her purse.
Being a good Spanish old lady, however, she was not about to give it up without a fight, and she hung onto it and began to scream.
The men in the church, along with the sacristan, ran up to help her, and the sacristan grabbed one of the women and marched her to the door.
Surrounded by the men in the church, the gypsies left - but as they did, one of them turned around and screamed, "Racistas! Racistas!" (Racists, racists.)
I guess modern Gypsies are going through the Jesse Jackson Training School.
