Irish racist hate-group on Facebook..

Jimmyhologram

...disgusting, dispiriting, and alarming. I know racism always bubbles beneath the surface on this mighty little rock of ours, but I must confess I'm pretty shocked about the number of people who have openly joined this group called "I hate Romanian Gypsies" (sic). Even worse are the comments, which range from the self-deluded ("I'm not racist but...") to the downright vile (references to gas-chambers etc.).

Whatever they are/wherever they're from/whatever the proper term for them is, hatred for them is completely justified.

Another reason to hate Facebook

In Hungary there everywhere. You just hate them after 5 mins of being in the country.

I certainly don't hate Romas but they can be too aggresive when begging,though Irish beggars are not too far behind. I suppose it's learnt behaviour. I feel sorry for them being born into that lifestyle, but lets be honest-it is annoying.

Roma people are NOT the average Romanian people, same way that "our traveling community" are NOT the average Irish person.
Romanian people are much like ourselves.

seanybiker

ha ha ha. Poor gypsies. Funny page though.

I've never had a problem with any sort of beggar - no matter where they come from.

Chuggers on the other hand... a thousand "I hate chuggers" facebook groups wouldn't be enough.

I don't think anybody here has claimed otherwise, and I would expect most people to be aware of the difference. The only suggestion that the terms are interchangeable arises from the the name of the above-mentioned facebook group. Try explaining it to those cretins.

Apart from the dozens of people spreading it... is there any actual evidence of it being paedo?? I find it worrying in the extreme when we simply say "if enough people repeat it, its enough for me to believe it and repeat it".... its getting kinda Brass Eye territory.

I wonder what Facebook will do about either group....

I did this last week but have yet to be informed of anything being resolved (they say they will notify you when they've dealt with it).

It's incitement to hatred whatever way you look at it and definitely should be removed.

Also, the peopel on that Stormfront page are despicable. Unenducated racists..... People like that are why there's so much conflict in the world.

Do you think it is ok for them to be engaging in organised begging like they are around Ireland (or europe for that matter)? Should be people like them for that?

Any hate they receive is brought upon by themselves. I just pity their kids who will be brought up to behave like them.

I never said people should like them. I just don't agree with a web page that encourages hatred of them.

I pity Irish kids who will be brought up to hate them without reason.

I agree, let the kids realise they are scum when they become adults by themselves.

This is not so surprising. It happens on most social internet sites, when they make webpages dedicating to hating. Hell I believe there is a website dedicated to hating the Irish, people insult us everyday. Not to mention Stormfront.

I'm disappointed in you Biggins; I wouldn't have taken you for an internet ingenue.
