Gypsies

    Two incidents I witnessed in two days, and possibly saved a few elderly people a few bob.

    1st incident was yesterday, was walking home from school and noticed 3 of them kncoking at peoples doors looking for "spare change", then 2 of them walked upto a house using their usual procedure but this time asked if they could go in and get some water, the old man replied no, then they looked to be trying to force there way into the house putting there foot at the door, so me and my mate stopped made sure nothing happens and then they walk off.

    2nd incident, ironically it was 1 of the three who I seen the day before. So was in town today waiting for a bus (121 just up from Clerys) and one of the same gypsies walk up behind this old man had put her hand into his back pocket and I stopped right beside her and he walked off (me making sure she didn't get any money, etc...). Then got a load of verbal trollox off the gypsie and then her husband/brother whoever it was, came over and I jumped onto the bus.


    Must say I love when I see something like this happening, as most people wouldn't take a second look and bother stopping, and I done it twice in two days.:cool:


    Both incidents where seen by people but nobody bothered to stop and make sure nothing happened. It really amazes me how people don't look after the elderly, or in fact anyone these days.

    Are we talking about Gypsies or travelers here? I'm thinking Gypsies from abroad.

    For the few sarcastic people, I posted telling you of my story. Not looking for credit, and was just pointing out how people walked by without stopping, and one man waiting on the bus just passed a blind eye without saying anything which I did.

    You've restored my faith in humanity AND young people. Kudos.

    Them pavee's are all the same. We have the soldiers now all we need is to gather them up and shove them out.
    They rob and beat up people and get away with it most of the time. The little children then are rared fighters. Always gagging for a fight and a euro:rolleyes:
    Im not been a rasist but one of things I admire Hiltler for was gassing all the gypies.

    Glad to see the irish travellers are still flying the flag for antisocial activity.I'd begun to think the furriners were taking over that sort of thing.

    These were Roma Gypsies, not Irish travellers.

    Oh dear, bit o' egg on your face there Degsy.

    Should be a case of if someone is in another EU country (from their native one that is) and they commit a crime they get sent home and some sort of mark on their passport to show that they are banned from the country in which they commited the crime, this whole unrestricted travel thing is a nice idea but it has some major downsides to it too.

    Farohar, there's no reason why the Irish or any other EU government couldn't give an EU national a boot up the hole when they're up to no good on their turf.
