****** will be ******...

I would have to disagree. Living in regular society and going to school until you are at least 16 does not stop you from being scum.
I don't see how that contradicts my post?
Yes some people who live in regular society are scum - so what?
New low... Hope it ends with a few less gypsys on the roads of Britain.
My personal experience of gypsys is limited to an illiterate girl smelling of urine coming to my primary school for a few months, and my dads car getting broken into when some gypsys 'just happened' to be passing through the area.
It seems ridiculous that this particular case should have gone on for 10 years - when it became apparent there was no planning permission the bulldozers should have gone straight in imo. The slaves just add to my negative perceptions of gypsys, and I'm certainly not surprised.

Before I start let me clarify that I am not prejudice against any groups or minorities I am open to most cultures and believe that they must be persevered but not at the expense of law and order. Now the local authority have bent over backwards to help this 'community' and yet they have declined their offers of accommodation and help (which would cost the taxpayer)
Their stubborn refusal to integrate into society in any way astounds and angers me, they do not pay any tax, they refuse to obey the laws of Britain, their youth steal and commit crime, the land they live on becomes a tip which they do not clean up and their so called 'customs' are abhorrent and in some cases not humane. From personal experience of these people they are rude, intimidating and usually steal - they act as if the world owes them something when in actual fact they owe us the people (or the government) many many years worth of tax.
They claim to have nowhere to go when the majority of them own large properties in Ireland, they call themselves 'travellers' but have not gone anywhere in a decade and set up permanent housing at Dale farm. I'm not one of Mr Cameron's supporters however he really gained my support when he said the following: "What I would say is it's a basic issue of fairness. Everyone in this country has to obey the law, including the law about planning permission and about building on green belt land and where this has been done without permission, it is an illegal development and so those people should move away."
The talking has gone on too long - evict them NOW!

Hmmm, calling them "******" is a bit rum isn't it?
Surely no different to using the "N" word for black people.
Can't we just call them "members of the travelling community" as they do in Ireland?

But they dont travel
I wouldn't compare the term ***** to using the N word, its more along the same lines as using the word chav.

I will agree with you there - actual travelling Romany Gypsies I can sort of abide as they do travel and are generally agreeable.
My Dad had a saying like that he said ''They'll nick your eyeballs if your not looking!'' made me lol!

I don't normally write in threads like this but a lot of people who are in here are saying that ******/gypsy's/travellers are all the same thing which they are not! ****** are worst of the worst!
I've been tought the ways a bit because my girlfriend is a traveller

This is my interpretation from what I've been told and I can't remember the real ins and outs....
****** are what were shown on Big Fat Gypsy wedding where the males didn't want to show their faces incase the benefits people saw them! They don't generally work etc. Horrible class of people.
Gypsy's - I forgot but I'll find out for you tonight, she says there's different classes like new age etc.....
Travellers - all the ones I know have rides/catering units but they generally live in carvans (as does my girlfriend) but they all pay council tax (my girlfriend pays the same as me and I have a 3 bed semi), taxes on takings, pay utilities etc. And if you say one is a gypsy or ***** they go insane! ha ha!
As for me I'm known as a joskin or flattie!
