The hilarious thing about the gypsy conversation is that everyone who deals with gypsies is like, "yeah, seriously, they suck, get rid of them" and everyone who is all high and mighty lives a very comfortable, clean gypsy free life.

SMH, indeed.

I grew up in a neighborhood that was over 40% hispanic immigrants.

What about gypsies?

Edit: Everyone wants to bring in some other ethnic group or race, or make a broad analogy. Why don't you just stick to gypsies. Perhaps you don't have as much to say in their defense as you thought.

[AdmiralViscen]

When we start talking about how gypsy gang violence is magically worse than other forms of gang violence then it just comes back to racism, doesn't it?

If they're breaking the law throw them in jail, if they're breaking the law and not in jail then put some heat on your elected representatives.


edit: because you idiots keep acting like everyone who hasn't had a gypsy as a neighbor doesn't know a single thing about any of the broader issues being demonstrated here

Okay. The Romani aren't a criminal people, and stereotype them and hate them is racist. It is no different than any other form of racism perpetrated against minority groups that are perceived to be criminals or dangerous.

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

According to Wikipedia, there is a million Romani that live in the US.  So who knows if I've come across one or not.

Yes, that's exactly right. Those who live gypsy free lives are ill prepared to comment on gypsy issues.

I am a blessed man, and do not have to deal with gypsies. I can only listen to those that do, and it seems the vast majority dislike having a gypsy presence.

[BlueTsunami]

We must all prepare for the Gypsy Apocalypse

So I guess the only credible primary sources when it comes to post-Reconstruction racism in America come from the Deep South?

Oh wait this isn't comparable to our racial problems. Oh wait it is, but only in terms of predisposition to criminality. Or something. I can't even keep up.

Was post reconstruction racism exclusive to the deep south?

Were gypsies recently enslaved?

Exactly what are you comparing here?

Saying that "Well, if a bunch of Europeans who live with gypsies, hate gypsies, then they must be bad!" is like saying, "Well, if a bunch of Americans who live with blacks, hate blacks, then they must be bad!"

Western civilization for over a thousand years has discriminated against Africans and Jews and Romani. I guess they must be bad if so many people hated them for so long, right?

You said that in situations where a vast majority of people hate a particular group, we can get all the information we need by looking to that majority which hates the group. This can't be hard to understand. Fast forward to the 1940s if 'post recunstruction' is too different. I should have said 'pre-Civil Rights'

[Flannel Boy]

You people are ruining the outside link thread (and it's also impossible to rationally talk about group differences on the internet--or anywhere).

Why don't I get audio on youtube anymore? My fiance has the same problem. It's been going for a few days now.

[Draft]

I said in this situation, where everyone who deals with gypsies hates them, and everyone who disagrees isn't so much defending gypsies as getting on their anti-bigotry high horse, I defer to people with actual experience.

You can draw analogies all day long, but the fact remains: nobody likes to be around the gypsies.

[AdmiralViscen]

OK.

Pretty much. I also think the term "racism" is thrown around a bit too loosely these days; it's a hell of a lot more of a cultural/behavioral thing.

I'm made a Holocaust joke, I guess Blackace took it as sarcasm (fortunately). Some mods can take things very literal like.

[Phoenix Dark]

Plus you're basically a GAF legend. They give you the benefit of the doubt. I'd imagine if I was a junior member I'd have been banned many times this month

As long as I stay out of the gaming forum I'm fine. I'll post in there for E3 obviously but that's about it

[fistfulofmetal]

i should take that advise. every one of my bans comes from the gaming side

but i never learn

[Phoenix Dark]

If Amir0x is trolling a gaming thread sure, go ahead and troll. But that's the only time you can get away with it unless you're a clever troll

[fistfulofmetal]

i don't troll

only truths

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

You can get away with trolling on the gaming side if you're an established personality.  NintendosBooger can troll.  AstroLad can troll.  Some dude the mods never even heard of?  Watch your back.  Same goes for the OT although it is a little more lenient so much as you avoid pet issues of the mods (ie, Dragona and misogyny, duckroll and piracy, etc.)

Common sense really should guide you along.  Unfortunately a lot of kids there like to test the boundaries and then get pissy when they get burned.  If you've been around those forums for weeks at least, you should be aware enough to know.  Whether you want to push those boundaries is always an at risk scenario.  Sometimes you get away with it, others get burned.

Keep in mind I spent about 7 out of 12 months in 2008 at GAF banned.  I won't pretend to be a hapless victim; I knew I was breaking the rules.  Don't really break them now because it doesn't seem worth it.

Guys, Dr. Doom is a gypsy.

Doctor.  Doom. 

I never understood why Doom put his mask on when it was still hot.

You'd think a super intellect would, uh, wait... or maybe dip the thing in water.

[Crushed]

Doctor Doom crying after 9/11 in that one Marvel book where all the characters were at Ground Zero going "NEVER FORGET."

Even though the villains shown, such as Magneto and Victor von Doom, have literally attempted to kill billions of innocent people and destroy the world on multiple occasions.

[ferrarimanf355]

lol camarofags. I can't believe I wanted a Camaro for the longest time...

[Crushed]

I really feel that Doom was crying at his own failure there.

I mean, think about it.  All the crazy-ass shit Doom has done, all the time and money spent, and a bunch of regular dudes highjack a few planes and get infinitely more attention than he ever has.  Doom sent the Baxter Building into space, for crying out loud!  Did he get 24/7 CNN coverage for that?  Nooooo.

Clearly 9/11 was a plot hatched by that vile Richards in an attempt to upstage Doom.  Everyone thinks it was the jews, but the jews were actually answering to Richards via that dim-witted ox, Grimm.

I actually thought about that. Doctor Doom shoots New York skyscrapers into space, and it's just another day in the Big Apple. Maybe Galactus will come tomorrow, or a mutant will blow up a school full of children. But some guys with box cutters blow themselves up and make some buildings fall over, suddenly it's a day of infamy, Captain America silently grieves while remembering Pearl Harbor, and everyone is crying.

[Eric P]

at least it didn't have Thanos crying

[Eric P]

Hell, I seem to remember Black Tom and Juggernaut actually blowing up one of the WTC towers once.

[Crushed]

Bruce Banner Hulks out in the middle of a small city, is responsible for the deaths of hundreds or thousands of people.

I don't get involved until the tail end of page 3, but by page 8, we have a certified MOTHERFUCKER, quadriplegicjon, saying that police aren't justified in using lethal force if confronting someone with a FUCKING KNIFE who had just STABBED SOMEONE.

[duckman2000]

Australia seems to be a bit like Michigan. I've recently reconnected with some friends from my time in Sydney, and I was a bit surprised to find that nearly all of them have relocated to other nations.

[Fresh Prince]

Sydney sucks, nice place to visit, shit place to live.

[Phoenix Dark]

I dunno, why is "fuck da police" the chosen rebellious position of internet cretins? It's almost more popular than the "fuck da religion" position

[Kara]

Because interactions with them are largely negative so it's a soft target to pick on.

[Dickie Dee]

In every large city, gay people find a way to find each other – but Dubai has become the clearing-house for the region's homosexuals, a place where they can live in relative safety. Saleh, a lean private in the Saudi Arabian army, has come here for the Coldplay concert, and tells me Dubai is "great" for gays: "In Saudi, it's hard to be straight when you're young. The women are shut away so everyone has gay sex. But they only want to have sex with boys – 15- to 21-year-olds. I'm 27, so I'm too old now. I need to find real gays, so this is the best place. All Arab gays want to live in Dubai."

Paranoia is pretty common in people with social anxiety-related mental disorders, particularly paranoia of authority figures.

I disagree.  Most re-res on the internet hate the police because they think of themselves as social revolutionaries, modern day Che Guevaras.  Hating the police is a common theme among those types because they're against "the system," all while posting this in their middle class suburban home or dorm room.
