Re: gypsys

The problem is though, folk tend to remember their negative experiences rather vividly & should Gypsies be involved it's a forgone conclusion they'll all get associated. What a lot of people aren't aware of or choose not to differentiate is between the types of Gypsy, here in Germany we have Roma & Sinti & on occasion the Irish. The most readily accepted are the Sinti (and that grudgingly). I have had experiences both good & bad with the varying cultures within the framework of "Gypsies".
