Gypsies/travellers are not an individual race of people. They just have a different culture. Racism does not apply here.OneBardGooner wrote:![]()

I spent the last week in Bramhope with my mother in law (lovely lady) she lives about 3/4 mile from the Brownlee brothers. The village is massively pissed off the gold post box is going to Horsforth where their parents live. Still immensely proud of the boys.
Laura Trott was born in my old hometown of Harlow so when she won gold they painted a box in Harlow she told them her actually hometown was Cheshunt and she was only born in Harlow so they painted one in Cheshunt too. Bet Royal Mail wish they hadnt botheredChippy wrote:Move the thread back to the Olympics guys, before it all goes horribly wrong.

I don't wish to take this thread 'off topic' but if people are going to make throwaway statements about something - whether they like it or not - has racial overtones - then surely it needs addressing.... I am not saying or accusing anyone of 'Intentionally being Racist'...but one remark can act as a spark and so there a fire begin...and it is not just what is said but how and why...and what is inferred from that...having briefly lived with Gypsies in Europe (Spain and Romania) when a teenager, I am only too aware of how the term is perceived by some to cover all peoples who live a 'Nomadic' life style, and how the term can unwittingly be used as a generic term and is often applied to those who are not Gypsies , there is no comparison between genuine Romani (Gypsies) and those who now referred to as travellers (among many other names).olgitgooner wrote:Gypsies/travellers are not an individual race of people.

Personally I don't care about the colour of peoples' skin, or religious belief, or anything else. Just as long as they make some effort to fit in with the laws and values of the country in which they live.
This is clearly not the case with the minority/majority of travellers. Sad. But true.
