"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
Why the outrage? Seems like a perfect excuse for the police to study their ways more closely, to gain better knowledge of their whereabouts and activities, ‘ya know what I mean?
Can Mafia Appreciation Day be far behind?
The ONLY thing I know about gypsies is that they’ll steal the shoes off your feet if you’re not careful.
> Police have estimated that each active Romanian criminal makes about £100,000 a year - most of which is channelled back to his home country to fund luxury cars and homes.
Crikey. That is about NZ$300,000 tax free or about NZ$480,000 before tax... not a bad living by anybody’s standard.
Who says Crime doesn’t pay?
We breakfasted at the same cafe every day in London. One morning there was a gypsy woman with a baby two booths behind us. The waitress made a point of leaning in and whispering a warning...."Be careful with your things, she's a gypsy. Don't let her get you talking, they're never alone."
The girls (14, 14, 15) had absolutely no clue about the 'gypsy problem'. After that they started to notice the panhandlers and beggars. When we got to Paris they laughed because it looked as though the exact same gypsies had followed us over.
Denise Milani: The Metropolitan Police director urges officers to observe 'Gipsy Roma Traveller History Month'
Scotland Yard has asked staff to 'celebrate' the contribution of Roma gipsies to 'London's culture and diversity.'
Gypsy history month? The only two attempts to pick my pocket that have ever been made were made by Gypsies....in the Rome subway to be exact.The first was successful and the second one wasn’t.
“Yet in a move which has caused disbelief amongst rank and file officers, Scotland Yard has asked staff to ‘celebrate’ the contribution of Roma gipsies to ‘London’s culture and diversity.”
If this bunch of half-wits had been in charge of England centuries ago, they’d have invited the Huns, Mongols and Moslems to England, and would have provided them transportation across the English Channel.
Here in Missouri they come by every Spring doing their usual thievery. The media used to refer to them as “Gypsies”, then as “so-called”gypsies””. Now there is no mention of their ethnicity at all.
British authorities have also announced that sniffer dogs are to search gypsy homes and caravans only under exceptional circumstances and when they do they are to be outfitted with rings on their toes.
This example of the descent of society rests almost singularly on pensions. Most police fall in line with orders from above because they fear losing their pensions if fired. Pensions controlled by those other than the recipients are used by governments, unions, and corporations to command obedience. Until the control of pensions is put into the hands of receipts, society will descend or remain flat. It won;t ascend because the worker will be too afraid to be vibrant for fear of losing it all.
Ah jeez - another Chief Diversity Officer. And the taxpayers are having to fund this.
I wish I could come back to earth in a couple hundred years and read the history books' chapters on the "quaint" jobs people worked at during this time in history.
On the other hand, I'd rather know that the Tribulation had come and gone and our Lord was back here and in total control.
Subsequently, they became the first group of people that I acquired a real prejudice against.
They liked conning the elderly, among other despicable cons.
I was unaware that a cop’s job description now includes “celebrating.” When did that happen?
If you ain’t payin’ me for it, I ain’t doin’ it.
