    some people seek out discrimination wherever they go in order to get compensation.

    Maybe if they didn't make life a living hell for people they wouldn't be getting disciminated agains't. They brought this upon themselves.

    Can't tell if you're being ironic or ignorant...

    I work in a bar, we have a large customer base of Travellers, and I must say that 90% are completly ignorant and disruptive. The remaining 10% are ok, just ok. But theres a reason they're descriminated on. Come riding along on your high horses all you want. This is from a person who deals with plenty of them, not just some ignorant bashing.

    I think Tv 3 are doing a show on Travelers, it should be good. They get a hard time.

    Most travellers bring it on themselves. Contribute zero to the rest of society and always on the take. **** them.

    So what you're implying here is:

    Sweeping generalisation 1: travellers are more likely to be discriminated against- OK

    Sweeping generalisation 2: travellers are more likely to (insert undesirable activity here) - Not OK

    Can't have it both ways.
