Come on, even you can make the connection. While they might not have common gene mutations showing them to have dark skin or blue eyes, travellers probably share a common trait as being 'members of a community'. Google 'travellers race abuse' if you need further enragement.

I don't like it, it dilutes the word 'race' to me, but I'm not in charge of stuff like that, and I'd like very much for it not to be an issue. For me, I don't care where you come from or what you look like. If you act like a cnut, you're a cnut.

Ritualised tribal violence is fine, but whatever you do, don't mention tribal identity. Shhh!

Yes, they can be seen to support the fact that inbreeding causes mental deficiency.

You're using the wrong language.

"A difference race" means "deemed deserving of special treatment".

and

"free speech" means "freedom to express progressive views"

"freedom from violence" means "freedom from violence for people in table A and a freedom to violently beat white men and UKIP voters"

The treatment isn't nearly as special as that reserved for feminist women, Arabs and Blacks, Muslims and Homosexuals.

So does taking girls out of school before they have any opportunity to learn anything that may be useful outside
of a pikey camp. If they learned something it might reduce their utter reliance on the males and we can't have that.
As a she-pikey, all you really need to know is how to clean a caravan and shag your husband. That and not to answer back
too often unless you enjoy a slap.

Why would someone want to start a thread that even the dumbest would realise would create a negative and racist thread, welcome 1760 AD.

It would be more honest to start with"Do all Niggers eat chicken and can you teach them to eat with a knife and fork?" Or "Do all Paki bastards shit while squatting on a bog seat?"

I have used racist terms to highlight the obnoxious OP's mind set in starting this thread.

Being serious for a moment.

Other than traditional Romanys, the so called travellers as far as I am concerned are just people who live outside the mainstream (and the law) because it suits them to do so. They aren't a different race, they aren't a different culture and they shouldn't be treated like they are.

Half of them are Irish pikeys and the rest are our own home grown scum, now being bolstered by the ones from eastern europe because we are nicer to them than the locals over there are. Rolling Eyes

Cos OP is fucking stupid. Razz

He works helping vulnerable people but doesn't know whether pikeys are protected under the Equality Act.

For some reason he still won't tell us the name of the charity he works for, I wonder why that is . Thinking

My neighbours have tried to play the Traveller card with the council recently, this despite the traveller family the claim to be related to having not a clue who they are. Thing is their attitude to anyone who can be identified ad either remotely non white British christian caucasion is decidedly racist. Hence the thread. For my next thread I'm considering asking if self indulgent self martyring clinically obese people are an unacceptable burden on the NHS and if so should the have remotely controlled valves fitted in the top of their stomachs so the state can control their calorie intake because clearly they cant control themselves.

I don't think the eastern European gypsies have any interest in being travellers. I think what they like about the UK is the opertunity to settle down. I saw a documentary on telly a while back about gypsies from the EU settling here. They just wanted to live in a proper house and have proper settled jobs and their kids to go to school get a good education and get better jobs than their parents and leave the whole travelling thing behind.

Im an Irish Gypsy descendent, I understand that my great grandfather was some kind of Kingy person in the gypsy world. I know my father is treated rather well when he goes over there. However i have never had the urge to live in a caravan unless it looks like the kind of motorhome that would cost zillions with storage for bikes and shit.

I do wonder though if my desire to move on is my diluted gypsy blood, longest ive lived in one place is 10 years, i get itchy feet but as I get older i cant be arsed to pack up another home, Ive lived in Scotland for 9 years and this is my 4th house. Im already looking for properties next to the sea again.

My snobby mother if she were still alive would consider me a pikey.

Would Romani consider Irish pikeys as "gypsies"? Are you appropriating their culture?

My great granny was from an Irish traveller family. She escaped and married into our lot who are big in Irish politics. I think in top trumps terms Irish travellers are the biggest point scorers in the British isles but not a patch on ones from Romania.
