Europe's Forgotten Citizens: Defending Roma Rights in the Eu

[marklosextremus]

@magyar369 You dont believe in curses but you believe there is an imaginary man watching everyone in the world at the same time? and a man with horns that lives in the ground? right.....

[DrStrangebomb1993]

Look here, you don't see the whole story. Travel to a gypsy village in Romania - obviously they refuse to integrate themselves with Romanians, being gypsies and all - and you'll see gigantic palaces built by the gypsy leaders using money that has been begged and stolen across Europe. There must be a greater reason why every nation with many gypsies doesn't really like them - Romania, France, so on. It's easy being an angel when you live in paradise.

[milekrizman]

In my opinion European Roma should be all sent to Sri Lanka. It is the best solution. Send them all to airplanes and send them to Colombo airport in Sri Lanka. There they could maintain their culture. And they wouldn't have problems with discrimination there.

[Dark2Dangerous]

Roma originate from Rajestan in India

[jimmythefoolmusic]

@magyar369 How about you come & move me?

I'm descended from Roma & proud of it. And you don't hear me spurning hate & dumb comments like yours. You belong in the 1930's not the 21st Century. I just hope no curse is put upon you.........

[unurautare2]

@jimmythefoolmusic You accuse the hun of being 1930s but you talk like fool from dark ages with curses and stuff. Are you also proud that a lot(if not most) your gypsy brethren send their kids to beg instead of school?

[bgwarior]

Take THEM!Just come and save the poor Roma!We had enought fof their kilings,rapings,robbery's...In fact every other ethnic group is discriminated by them!That happens becouse when a country try's to solve the problem you start screaming abouth the pour jipsy's.Discusting.

[VenlonianPictures]

very funny to see they got a big house to live in.

here in The Netherlands Roma Criminals got a house and 600.000 euros if they behaved. they goth both and guess what? They don't behave. they threathen and intimidate people, they even use violence against innocents. many people here work hard and do it so every day. they dont get a villa and 600.000 euros or do they!? EU is opressing it's own citizens and gives more rights to strangers.

[dark33r]

AGAIN : You cant compare western gypsies and gypsies living in post-comunist countries. Those are the biggest trash ever seen. I believe western gypsies are discriminated, but on the other side in post-communistic countries there work opposite discrimination when white people are discriminated by the system against roma. -.- sucks-.-

[coralarch]

Is it true that Roma regard all gadjos as "unclean"? I haven't met many Roma, but those I did meet were putting their little children out to beg in the snow, and pretending they had AIDS. I have no sympathy for anyone who does that. The others were busy attacking tourists and grabbing their cameras and money. My husband had his wedding ring wrenched off after a gang of them attacked him.. Not a very good image for gypsies.

[PrincessAudrey1990]

I'm half Australiand and half Pacific Islander so I don't know too much about the gypsys. From what I've seen though I believe gypsys are just treated horribly by Europeans.

What astounds me even more is that most Europeans are willing to help, educate and embrace Muslim immigrants over gypsys.

[TheLittleBlackBear]

RAWR! Very nice video :)

[347taxman]

THE GYPSYS IN THE US HATE AMERICANS

[Krisznyo]

oops she said anti...all right then,agreed:D

[Churchillsrevenge]

The fact is, the prison and criminal percentiles in Hungary cannot be grasped as the Hungarian govt does not make them public: in this manner these problems cannot be grasped in the innternatioal forums of the EU.

The figures offered below by HUNGARIANKINGDOM may not be substantiated!

Concerning VOree

Highlighting:

educational problems,poverty,ghettoisation and the execution of innocence through the hunting of Rroma children is not propaganda.

[Churchillsrevenge]

Hubbard has a point.

The Rroma have suffered horrible historical racism over th last 500 years.The surprising thing is that have survived at all!

Isolation,lack of education and poverty are all aspects of educational apartheid and the ghetto - the hunting of Rroma children being the latest "Hungarian Sport".

These are all creations of the European mind!

[V0ree]

U are a propagandist! U are a faker! U are playing against hungarians, maybe U are getting money for it!

Yes, protect normal gypsies they need it!!! But why are U talking shit, we are SUFFERING FROM GYPSIES EVERY DAY !!!! Why arent able to understand it ??? WHY ???

[paulinakubuntu]

Roma=poverty, lack of education, isolation.... Main problems.

[HUNGARIANKINGDOM]

78% of PRISONERS are gispy in Hungary

90% of gipsies are UNEMPLOYED in Hungary

80% of CRIMES commited by gipsies in HUNGARY

90% of the live on taxppayers WELFARE in Hungary.

What do you think why is this? JUST Because everybody in Hungary RACIST? STUPID IDIOT!! STOP LIEING ABOUT THE POOR INNOCENT ROMA population! STOP DESINFOM PEOPLE with your LIES!

[kadramay1989]

anyone can write numbers... prove these statistics!

[u2hubbard]

For those who talk about how the Roma commit crimes, and what not the White race has done it to every ethnic group of a darker hue 10 times over. I'm a Black man from America and i stand by the Gypsies. Blacks and Gypsies need to come together.

[davazno1]

You don't know what you are saying , stop reinforcing the belief that usa citizens are stupid .What do you know about gypsie ? Do you know that they are extremly racists ? Do you know any of they customs or traditions ? Like to forcibly marry their kids at 13 -16 years ?

[Krisznyo]

extremely true!!

[Tihbialdunav]

@u2hubbard , just take them all to US. They steal everything: from cars to electric wires and rail road tracks. Recently our govermnment had to reschedule a meeting because there was no electricity in the building -Gypsies stole the wires...It's the only ethincity equalling criminal. THey even sell their babies for 5000euro. I don't think black people do such a disgusting crime.

[davidsteaua]

Yes it is!!

If just they would go back,pfooai, party time!!

[thendino1]

Is it true the Gypsies came from India?

[Peginho]

Yes it is. Actually they come from the Punjabi region of India.

[view587]

They come from India? Havent you seen white gypsies? Welsh? Irish gypsies would laugh their cocks off if you said they were Indian! Ignorance!

[ballbreaker1900]

not true roma are white people, ive seeen blond hair roma ive neaver seen a blond indian!

[abh3092]

most indians are Caucasians but not white

[MilitantOldLady]

THEY ARE NOT CITIZENS!!!

[TheTollundWoman]

So what? They're human beings.

[sorin1918]

Called them gypsie,you imbecil..roma is only for the upper class of gypsies..

[IbizaIsBurning]

Why would we want to defend thieves? In the Roman Empire (which is what the EU whould be modelled after), you can lose a hand for stealing. the solution would be deportation back to central Asia. Who's with me?

[tonyromachavo]

I am a well educated american-roma and know the gypsy history. For centuries we overcame abuse. This is why gypsies are the way they are. Without education your countries will have this problem forever. Only education on both sides will solve the problem. Special schools are not needed for us because in countries like america we do just as good as other races - here in the US we have doctors, lawyers, etc. We contribute to society and this can happen in Europe if you will let it.

[MrLajosSinclair]

Don't feed me with your fairy tales. When I google "Gypsies+crime+United States", I can find articles with very, very familiar stories. You haven't succeeded anywhere. You can brag about some doctors and lawyers - we have them in Czech republic, too. They make up few promiles of the Gypsy population.

56% Gypsies are not able to finish basic education and are functionally illiterate.

Opre Roma! Roma Protest March against racist and xenophobic violence on May 3, 2009! Organize your country, city, town, village or neighborhood to join in this peaceful demonstration march, to show solidarity and support for your Roma, and other minority citizens.

[centrum99]

What a bout a march against Gypsy violence and crime on May 4?

[Zinnamongirl]

Opre Roma! Roma Protest March against racist and xenophobic violence on May 3, 2009! Organize your country, city, town, village or neighborhood to join in this peaceful demonstration march, to show solidarity and support for your Roma, and other minority citizens.

[chewbaca1989]

EU system is Soviet

[ReejQ]

I think more than 60-70% of European population is anti-Roma, but why???? Why don't they think about the reasons??? There is no other etnicity so hated...WHY??? There is no anti-gypsy propaganda, all the hatred are based on first-hand experiences.

[SinclairNicholas]

Wrong, racist, your argument is like saying, "Why did only Jews get exterminated across Europe, there is no other ethnicity that was put in prisons, WHY???" You are just blaming the victims, typical racist thinking. I can only hope one day all those people who think like you will die out, and your children will offer respect and dignity to each person as individuals. Your thinking leads to fascism, racism steals individuality, and is the great evil on the planet.

[centrum99]

Visit some Gypsy slum in eastern Slovakia and you will be cured forever!

[centrum99]

After I gave them a second chance, I have been missing my mobil phone Nokia.

[samester123]

did u really search for your phone?... look carefully it's sticking out of your ass

[ukrainianbanana]

Reading some of these comments, it is becoming more clear as to how the Holocaust was allowed to occur in Europe. With backwards prejudices like these, Europe is only sending itself backwards, and not only because of their failing economies.

[centrum99]

Be happy that you don't have to live in Europe near a Gypsy settlement and that you are an American fool commenting things you know nothing about from the safety of your house.

[ArisztidZ]

Thankyou ukrainanbanana. :)

I decided relatively recently to not read racist comments and have had a distinct drop in my blood pressure since I stopped dealing with them. My only comment to them now is in my profile *hint hint*

[centrum99]

Don't read any "racist" comments and stick your head into a sand like a true ostrich - then you will understand all the problems surrounding Gypsies much better!

[6komet]

more right for black people in the usa!!!!!

seen black people living in the ghetto because white americans dont want to employ them.....black people are still discriminated in the usa!!!!

[centrum99]

...of their alleged kinsmen - pursuing their own interests instead.

[centrum99]

With their average IQs in the range of 70-80 points, the perspective of this group in Europe is absolutely hopeless. People, who obsessionally organize all those unsucessful "projects" and "initiatives" have as much intelligence as a fly that hits a window pane over and over again, wondering why it can't go out. Notice please, how European their bosses look like. It is typical for such Pseudo-Gypsies, who inherited some European look and intelligence that their eagerly speak for the "rights"...

[Sumakuni]

This will be the only time I respond to your astounding ignorence.O.M.G. you need Gods touch to enlighten and awaken your mind. You also are in dire need (if you wish to place any opinion on something you obviously know nothing about) a great book on Rromani history , timeline of persecution, the facts about us and the statistics regarding how small the minority of us steal and of that minority how so much smaller is those of our race that do so for reasons other then absolute survival. GBU

[centrum99]

Sumakuni...where do you live? Oh, the United States! It really wouldn't occur to me, when reading your clueless comments!

[dulcielee]

to centrum99

if you expect the worst of people you tend to get the worst.

[centrum99]

I don't expect that I would have ever met my mobil phone stolen by Gypsies in a train.

[midbluegreen]

what is roma?

[GREEKxxPRINCESS]

gypsy.

[denstone111]

These bastards attacked my disabled son who was in his wheelchair just because he is different.

[danishpride1]

I love eastern europeans...In Denmark we keep eastern europeans as slaves and give them a lousy salary..And it should always be like that!

[Despina6946]

u are retarded! All people deserve to be treated with respect and equally. What do you think that you are? Worth more than eastern europeans?

[ArisztidZ]

Thankyou Despina. :)

[centrum99]

So why do Gypsies need various special privileges and they can't be treated equally?!

[SinclairNicholas]

Because when a population has suffered the consequences of discrimination, they're not on an even playing field. Why did America use a quota system & offer other advantages for years to help African Americans? Because they were shoved into ghettos and discriminated against for a few centuries. The Roma need the same quota system in Europe. I 've lived in Cz for nearly 20 years, so don't give me your "clueless" crap, either. Racism has likely rendered YOU clueless, & you'll probably die that way.

[centrum99]

Tell us about the "success" of positive discrimination in USA, please. Especially about the astronomical explosion of violent crime and regular burning American cities that white Americans got as a reward.

Irrespective of any affirmative actions, Gypsies and blacks won't get up, because they are primitives with a low IQ. They are not successful in any country in the world, under any conditions.

[centrum99]

They complain about discrimination, but when they are left alone, they complain that whites went away with all their "wealth" and their country becomes a miserable hell hole full of crime and poverty.

[ComradeSinclair]

@SinclairNicholas "Why did America use a quota system & offer other advantages for years to help African Americans? Because they were shoved into ghettos and discriminated against for a few centuries."

And they still haven't caught up, and it seems that they will never do. But we must continue in this clownery and import it to other countries in the name of racial equality.

[Rosiercentral]

The Roma have my support!

Things WILL get better, it's only a matter of time before the wheel starts spinning.

[janak19771977]

that because you do not live next to them

[ViacomGreedyInc]

Isn't it amazing that the love to Gypsies increases with the growing distance from their settlements? These American idiots are brainwashed by propaganda created by their lefty crackpots and have no idea, who Gypsies are.

[suzeecole]

I'd rather be an intelligent 'Lefty Crackpot' than an 'abomination to humanity' ,as your racist ignorant isolated self. Why don't you at least show some intelligence by 'THINKING' about the acrimonious situation, rather than being a stupid dinosaur and charging with that small pea brain of yours?

[centrum99]

Another clueless lover of Gypsies writing from the safety of his house on the British Isles. Am I right?

[AG0525]

Ohh judging by the comments it is good to know that rest of EU are not in good opinion bout gipsies. Not long ago they BURNT the police station near their illegal village wich tried to control the drug and addicts flow, here in Lithuania.

Well, when new mayor ordered to demolish their illegal village, only then romas calmed down for a moment with their drug bussines, but not for long.

Now they r back on track and even have their special human rights laweyrs to cover up their drug bussiness.

[MayorOfCydonia]

We don't have that many Roma in Australia, but why are they treated worse than other groups? They arent fundamentalists or anything. People don't think it's silly that they are living in third conditions even though they live in western europe? Whats going on?

[CyborgNinja7]

It's uncomfortable for many to admit this, but most Roma live lawlessly and willingly outside of society. They frequently steal and commit other crimes. Their children are taught to do the same. Some work as unlicensed, fraudulent contractors. You can learn about this on your own.

[Sumakuni]

It is even more unconfortable to read the slanderous insane incorrect information you send out to the world about an entire race, it is just the opposite. It is the minority of Rroma who conduct criminal acts and of those whom do, there is an even smaller minority who do so out of reasons other then life and death need. Why not inform of the Euro bathrooms and "gyp" sy bathrooms, the steralisations, worse then getto style housing, speacial need schooling, hatred and false media propaganda, ETC

[Fridomfry]

One should recall that "rights" come along with "duties" — like, not dealing drugs (Roms are the 1st heroin dealers in France), not stealing public or private property (gypsy gangs destroy electrical and telephone lines, or street equipment, to sell scrap metal).

[Tadek59]

Interesting video and information !!!

Thanks for share qrUnqestyLe !!!

[Joskeuu]

Ofc they have rights as all the rest of us, but they should end their nomadic ways and settle down. Maybe a hard thing to say, but they will only get accepted when they integrate and end clustering together.

[DarthTanner]

I have no problem with them living in caravans if thats what they want to do, but I expect them to pay the taxes expected of them.

[DarthTanner]

I'm not very informed on the Roma people but are they similar to the UK gypsy population in that they just don't pay tax because of the migratory lifestyle? (Despite claiming most of the benefits that tax pays for)

[Fridomfry]

DarthTanner, that's it, exactly. All these people seem to forget that "rights" come along with "duties".

[ArisztidZ]

I have had my social security card since I was 12 years old. That means that I have been a tax-paying citizen for 33 years. I started work when I was 10. That makes 35 years in the workforce.

I believe that that shows that I do my "duty" to society.

I am Romani, otherwise called "Gypsy."

All of my Roma friends work, go to school, and pay taxes just like me.

[centrum99]

In my country, almost no Roma work, go to school and pay taxes. I think we should send them to USA. LOL

[MayorOfCydonia]

Did she say 7 % or 80%, I hope it's not 80% that are against roma

[EUamerican]

We can believe that...in the end...Italy will have HELL to pay for what its doing to the Roma!

[Grexissimo]

sorry pals, but is it only me who has made ad experiences with Roma or Sinti people? Crudos to those who integrate themselves but in France and Germany they establish a parallel-society which they do'nt even wat to quit!

[belgiumboy76]

Roma are citizens like anyone else, they have the same rights! Good to see the EU cares, even if Italy doesn't...

[RadekEU]

"Roma are citizens like anyone else, they have the same rights!"

- sure, noone is saying opposite, but also they are main source of problems.

[alexandramrsn]

@belgiumboy76: Yes, like "anyone else" they should also know about obligations, that is something they cannot understand and that is the reason they are not accepted. Shall we, the rest of 500 Million Europeans change in their style and be convinced also that we do not have to pay any attention to obligations? Shell I get into details??

[Manolis090]

Many europeans do not accept them in schools alongside with their kids! Who doesn't understand about obligations?

[generazioneattiva]

Italian channels chould show this video 24H/24

[indoctor]

They do everything but work. That's written in their DNA. Cesare Lombroso was right.

[EUamerican]

There are some concerns that we should have when it is claimed that criminality is caused by biology. Lombroso studied the bumps on the heads of prison inmates, which is now defunct.

Criminality has many more social factors - and not DNA.

[RadekEU]

"They do everything but work. That's written in their DNA. Cesare Lombroso was right."

- yea I agree. There is 300 000 romas in Czech republic and all they make are problems and problems.

[saffronix]

I know a lot of NON-Gypsy people like that. So I don't think it's a DNA problem. And many of them are socially respected people. They attained wealth through criminal corruption (it's OK if you don't get caught) and now head businesses where OTHERS work for them. And some are quite proud that they don't work, privately regarding working people as trash.
