Red Dog , yes or no , would you take your car to be serviced by a gypsie ?
Don't say you only take it a official dealer.
If he had an established business with suitable premises, the correct tools, a good reputation and he quoted a competetive price then yes, of course I would.
Now let me ask you, would you let the bloke next door service your car because he is not a Gypsy, or would you make your decision based on some other criteria?
Red Dog , i would use the same criteria as you when selecting who to let service my car , but if he was a gypsie i would not use him , based on my experiences with many gypsies.
I do understand your point of view in regards to PC although it does on occasions go a little to far.
Obviously i don't know you but can i take a guess that you live in somewhere like Cheltenham or Kent. Have a large house / castle with a moat , drive a Range Rover , 60 miles from the nearest council estate ?

How can anyone be offended by me saying i dislike gypsies and men who are extremely camp ?
Whats so offensive about that ? I'm being completely truthful .
I admit i don't visit this site on a regular basis , but I'm sure there are posts on here criticising and taking the piss out of some high profile poker players. Would someone posting i hate Phil Hellmuth be deemed offensive and would that warrent a torrent of abuse by the Phil Hellmuth Fan Club ?
Do you not understand the difference between criticising someone from what they do and for discriminating against a race because of what they are?
I dislike gypsies for specific reasons based on my encounters with them over the years . For example , I used to run a business and found then very rude to me , my staff and my customers. They would always try to pay less than the agreed price and often try the " i'm a few quid short " trick. In my local paper shop i would often see gypsie kids trying the same thing with sweets. They turn up in large groups of caravans and set up camp for a week or 2 and then leave it with all their rubbish not properly diisposed of. On occasions i've seen beer bottles and cans thrown into my garden during the time of their stay , however if i'm being truthful it could have been non gypsies. Mine and other residents have had their flowers gardens ruined , again this is only a suspicion that they are done by gypsies. These are some of the reasons why i dislike them , nothing to do with race , infact can anyone distinguish a gypsie from another ordinary white bloke .
In regards to dislikeing men who are overly feminine ,it has nothing to do with the fact they may be gay , infact i have many gay friends and have no problems with them. I just find them pretentious , all that skipping down the street and all that. Those of you who have seen Louis Spence on TV may understand what i mean.Those of you who have jumped down my throat don't say you like Louis Spence because i will not believe you.
I live in the north west of England where there is a lot diversity and i have many friends from all different backgrounds , so calling me a racist is totally wrong.
Oh boy...OK Let me put it this way;
I don't mind Asians, Chinese, Japanese, Russians, Mongolians etc. but hate blacks.
I have friends from loads of different background...just because I hate blacks that doesn't make me a racist, does it?
Since when have gypsies become a race ?
I dislike their culture , so would prefer to be called a culturistist.
But if they are a race and you are right , then yes i am a racist. A selective racist which would be the truth.

what have you got against blacks boldie?
Don't start with me mate. I was watching this documentary on black people once...it was un real.
Loads of druggies and criminals. And whenever they were cops they turned out to be corrupt.
You can't trust them mate.
I recommend watching the documentary...I think it's probably available online somewhere

So the Scottish Highland Travellers gypsies are the same race as the Uzbek Lyuli Gypsies? What happened, did they lose their way?
