Hancock claims to be a Gypsy himself - not a tinker but the old-school kind. He's way into political activism for Gypsys, Travellers, Melungeons and others.

I still want to see their INCOME TAX STATEMENTS to justify four automobiles!

Hancock claims to be a Gypsy himself

I am familiar with Dr. Hancock's work. However in this particular instance his outrage appears to be unjustified. Nobody profiled this woman because she is some variety of "gypsy" (although not an ethnic Roma). On the contrary, any profiling would have been of the "white trash soccer mom" class.
