Not a complaint but had to do a Google search to appreciate this article.

For those in the same boat as I, substitute the word "gypsy" for the word "Romani". Romani are a subset of gypsies.

Thanks I didn't have a clue. I thought they might be talking about Romanians, in which case this was definately news to me since I had never heard of anyone descriminating against them. Gypsies make much more since in this context.

No. Foreigners call Roma Gypsies. Romani or Roma is what they call themselves.
