The Italian government will resume plans to fingerprint the Roma in an aim to crackdown on crime and illegal immigration.

Officials say it will lead to better conditions for those living in
the country's camps, but Al Jazeera's Sabina Castlefranco reports on how critics believe it's just plain racist.

  • A census is NOT an infringement of human rights - all persons in Britain are census checked every 10yrs. BUT SINGLING OUT ONE RACES' CHILDREN IS!!

    PERSONS SHOULD ONLY BE FINGERPRINTED IF THEY HAVE COMMITT A CRIME, to finger print without an offence being commited INFRINGES HUMAN RIGHTS!

    When British Goverment recently tried to introduce fingerprinting for all races of children here, it caused anger from the vast majority and little support from anyone!

    Oprey Roma!

  • Most American's oppose the war in Iraq. We were lied too, over, and over again. Our biggest mistake, is that WE TRUSTED OUR GOVERNMENT! And, now, we face shame, and critism from the whole world... and, I SAY, "RIGHTFULLY SO"! We deserve it for being so complacent, and scared... we'll take our shame... and, President Bush, and Vice Pres Cheney should pay for their crimes against us, and the world!

  • @somethingirreversib this is ridiculous! 

  • @asianhordes  NOT ALL OF THEM ARE ROMA, please everyone is capable of crime!!! if the roma are responsible it is because they were forced!

  • @shahnee66 In Hungary 90 % of the prisoners are gypsy. They had 600 years to become the part of our society. They couldnt at all.

    If you know that you have 90% chace when you walk on ice that you will fall in the river, than practically you will and you need to consider all frozen river dangerous if you want to survive. Although not all ice is fragile that much. SO IT IS BETTER FINGERPRINTS GYPSIES IN AS EARLY AGE AS POSSIBLE :) if you want to survive.
