the Romas that come to Denmark are not here to work. they're here to leech off my money and I'm not gonna let principles get in the way of preventing that.

I know it'll never happen, but keeping them out is the only way to make sure they don't commit any crimes. why the fuck do I and my fellow countrymen have to put up with self entitled assholes coming in over the border and doing as they damned well please, all in the name of political correctness.

Danish society is every bit as insular as the Romani. They are also matriarchal. Perhaps the similarities are too close for comfort. The flip side is you live in a postage stamp size country where the neighbor playing his music too loud takes on a whole new level of aggravation and ANY behavior which flouts the prevailing 'norm' is looked on with disgust, distrust and, dislike.

I don't believe you! Oprah said they are the happiest people in the world, therefore it must be true!

Ur definition is wrong.
Holocaust == Genocide
Click to expand...

I'm not sure what you mean by ==, is that different from just one =? Anyway, the holocaust is an example of genocide, that is correct, but does not translate directly to genocide. The compound word originally dealt with whole and burning, as in when animals were sacrificed in pagan ceremonies. Later on it took on the meaning of massacre. After WW2 it usually refers exclusively to the organized killing of the Jews by the Nazis. Many Jews dislike the phrase and use other names for the genocide.
 
Girl doesn't look very gyspy to me.

Typical gypsy look, at least in balkans:

If you want a girl that cooks and cleans get a russian bride. I've never heard of a roma/not hybrid working out in the wild.
 
Some confusion between Romani and other nomadic groups like Irish travelers. The oldest and truest gypsies probably came from the fall of the Persian empire, from the easternmost portion (the Northwest of the Indian subcontinent). Most gypsy groups that are in Europe are very mixed, and can't be considered Indian or any other national ethnic group.

Personally, I have no experience with gypsies. I've heard that there is a community of them in Queens - a former coworker of mine used to complain about them.

My grandfather was raised in the late 1890's and early 1900's on a farm in a rural part of mid-Illinois, east of Springfield near the Indiana state line. His mom often told him the gypsies would take him away if he did not complete his household chores. At the moment he died, he started getting fearful and weakly twisted in his bed. With his last breath he murmured the gypsies were coming for him. Memories of this still freak me out.

Wow, a society that actually stands it ground against stupid people? We need more of them than the current "let's do nothing, wait for 10+ years and let idiots subjugate us inside out" ones.
 
They choose to take part in a "culture" that others hate. They could choose to be productive members of society. This is not like hating someone for being black, this is like hating gang culture that happens to be mostly urban blacks.

Learning to live with and appreciate other cultures is a hallmark of civilization. I would suggest that stupidity is independent of culture. Allowing other cultures to exist within your borders, in no way diminishes your own.

I can't really understand what you're attempting to say. You seem to be implying that ones culture is a chosen lifestyle. You might want to read up on the Romani before you compare them to gang bangers. As long as we're using broad strokes, they have more in common with Jews.
 
I'm not sure what the big deal is with the way she's dressed. Just the other day I saw a 6th grader in a long flowing purple skirt that was so transparent your could see her panties undernead it. 12 year olds wearing nearly see through shirts where their bra is their main covering is becoming quite prevelant. This girl seems no more slutty than the lower average of the lacking in morality group 😛.

With that..yeah she's pretty well built.

Luckily on todays mostly interconnected planet, people are choosing to live in a culture that suits them regardless of geographic orientation. These people, very sadly, tend to get ostracized by the culture around them.

TBF she probably isnt slutty at all. The girls dress that way to get a husband. They all marry really young and the competition for husbands is really fierce.

Having sex before marriage is really frowned upon (and unless its the guy shes just about to marry) and will damage her chances of getting a husband.

Why they are all so desperate to get married I dont know as their husbands never seem to treat them that well.

I worded it wrong, I didn't mean she was slutty. I meant against the average american tween that I see around the schools that are on my company's contracts.
