it is has always been common for authentic Roma (gypsies) to beg others for money to bury their dead.

For them this would be normal behavior and in the good old days everyone would recognize it as what it is ~ a burial custom of a small but ancient ethnic group.

Billy Blythe, Bill Clinton's gypsy ancestor, died way back in the 1800s and his relatives begged for money to bury him.

Did you mean this reply to be for me or someone asking about the appeals for financial help, muawiyah? Or is FR having a glitch? I was just questioning the father’s demeanor, but didn’t address the appeal. It’s so common nowadays, I guess I don’t think that much about it.

That’s interesting, though. About all I know about the Roma is their connection to flamenco dancing. And I have a beloved dog named Gypsy.

To Theoria- ;-) Well, this one’s just a given. I suspect Clinton can cry on command faster than any woman alive. We *know* he’s a sociopath. He’s much better at it than 0bama.
