    They look white because they are white and the same race as us. John Connors looks just like any other Irish person. They look like us but there are subtle differences in how they speak/act that sets them apart. It's hard to explain but if you interact with Travellers enough you can tell.

    I dunno I reckon you can tell many Travellers just by looks alone. That's what generations of inbreeding within a shallow gene pool will do. Somehow that makes a separate ethnicity too but sure that decision was made for us.

    I've had enough experience that I'd know them if they were boiled. If not, then I'd know as soon as they open their mouths. Call me racist but that'd the way it is.

    Not a chance. The BBC doesn't make documentaries painting them as martyrs like RTE does and the authorities seem to just ignore them. This is the same UK that arrests people for posts on twitter but let a trafficking ring work with impunity for years for fear of being labelled racist. They don't care about Travellers either way. Look at how those fools behaved in New Zealand. They genuinely couldn't understand why the Kiwi's took such offence to their behaviour. They're so used to getting away with it in the UK that being pulled up on it was a shock to the system.

    That kiwi experience blew the doors of the notion that they are mistreated here, the kiwis reacted like you would to any obnoxious anti social people, here we engage in excuses for their carry on, they are over indulged to an obscene degree in this country

    Two of them in the bookies today and one of them acting like a complete cnut. He gave the girl behind the counter dogs abuse because he couldn't get his way. Roaring and shouting at the screen. I hope he lost his bollox

    "Joe Duffy" But how do you know they were Travellers?

    That's the thing, I don't. Any video I seen, they were covered up. Even the names looked unfamiliar to traveller surnames. It was a presumption based on me saying perhaps.

    You can also spot them by them going around wearing a pair of shorts with a matching lagging jacket. Hair slicked back using a full tub of gel.

    The haircuts. I reckon they all go to the same barber and ask for 'The Traveller'

    Is that where you get your hair cut, walk out without paying and threaten violence if anything is said?

    Or is that just normal shops...

    So many instances of scamming, theft (Hi Mags) and assorted other anti social behavior concerning travellers that we almost automatically assume they are involved in a case like this.

    They need to clean up their act (in every sense) but just won't.

    Wow so misogynist . Show me on the doll where the woman touched you.

    (Nah that never happened!!!):):D

    You need to get a dictionary for the big words like 'misogynist' as you appear clueless to its meaning and appropriate use thereoff.

    It’s easy to identify a traveler. Hold out a piece of copper in the palm of your hand , if it has been snatched from your hand immediately, it is a traveler ...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,555 ✭✭✭Roger Hassenforder


    Being a mother is by far the most important job any woman can do. Far better than being an incompetent accountant or incompetent project manager.
    Wow so misogynist .

    Thats the great thing about hypocrites. Utterly predictable.

    That's something I often notice about travellers. People are always on about wearing tracksuits but around here they are always in Jean's or a black trousers and the shiniest shoes ever.


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,150 ✭✭✭✭freshpopcorn


    The Fermoy family . That were discussed on RedFm when they were looking for a house whilst living in a mobile home.
    There mobile home got burnt down last night.

    Go to any provincial nightclub and that is what every single guy regardless of background is wearing.

    To be fair mobile homes and caravans are far more dangerous than a brick house. It doesn't take much to set them alight.

    That's unfortunate, wonder what caused it.

    She only has 4 kids under the age of 5, must be the black sheep of the family.

    Why do you think that mimicking the interview of a child abuse victim is an appropriate response to anything?

    What part of it do you find most amusing?

    Funny thing is, that poster was asked to condemn actual child abuse with the overweight child being encouraged to drink a full pint of Guinness and to "throw shapes" but they scarperred off the thread.

    I'm amazed that the Aussie Immigration let them into the country in the first place. I had understood that they normally do a pretty extensive background check for criminal convictions. But perhaps those four lads were paragons of virtue before they went to Australia (checks outside window for flying pigs).

    Juvenile offences wouldn't show up on those checks, probably, and they were only a little over 18.

    Is Maggie on a trip again?

    (Via google translate)
    A six-month pregnant woman stole nearly 900 euros worth of things at Primark in Zoetermeer yesterday. To do this, she walked up and down three times between the store and her car.
