...There is a large Irish Traveler group living in Augusta, GA, 20 minutes from my home, and they are sometimes mistaken for being Hispanic....

i cannot understand this statement: PLS, what is an "Irish Traveler"?

Sorry I wasn't clear; hadn't had first cup of tea yet and it generally takes two to get me going and even then it's iffy. After reading this morning that a tarot card was found at the school shooting, I thought of Irish Travelers, who often use tarot cards. IT's are commonly referred to as gypsies. They are typically swarthy skinned and after reading so many posts yesterday that police may be targeting Hispanic looking men driving white box cars, I thought perhaps an Irish Traveler could be mistaken by a witness as Hispanic looking. Hope that's clearer than my previous post!
