Poznan, Rroma, and Dogs

March 19, 2017 Published by: RF

Very much in line with the same polemics as in Slovakia, dogs were retrieved from a Rroma settlement near Poznan and are said to have been maltreated and abused. Amongst the abuse cited here: “Among quadrupeds located within the encampments was a bitch of a few days to eight puppies. She was lying in the outdoors, in makeshift shack, which did not give any protection against the cold. Animals should absolutely not be in such conditions – says Agnieszka Wolska, a veterinarian.”
Well, she did barely worse than the Rroma with whom she was living.

A Beatification …

March 19, 2017 Published by: RF

A young Rromni who died in prison after childbirth during the Spanish civil war has just been beatified by the Catholic Church. She is the first Rromni to be beatified …
This says a lot about the Catholic Church’s attitude towards Rroma.

French Chronicle …

March 19, 2017 Published by: RF

Not that many news in France this week (that is besides the Front National statement on Rroma)… A police affair in Montpellier where two persons were detained and beaten by Rroma after they came to their camp to gather scrap metal, which was followed by the arrest of four Rroma and their prompt liberation as they were not the ones who detained the others. Bad. And then, in Bondy, near Paris, the mayor is facing citizen who want the Rroma out; in Villeurbane, near Lyon, a camp was destroyed by fire, leaving more than 100 people on the street; in Montpellier, associations are asking for a stop of stigmatisation of the Rroma; and finally, in the North, a squat in Lille is still making the headlines – all following the aggressions there.

REALLY???

March 19, 2017 Published by: RF

A French Front National politician is proposing to recover the gold teeth of Rroma to make them pay for their lodgings … This in a small town near Grenoble.
Last time this was done was at Auschwitz! If you had any doubts about the French Front National, this is it.
The Mayor is called Franck Sinisi. His full citation is: “pour loger les Roms, je pense qu’il pourrait y avoir un auto-financement. La Métropole devrait leur payer un dentiste… afin de récupérer les dents en or” [to lodge Roma, I think that there should be a self funding. The state should pay them a dentist … so as to recover their gold teeth].
SHAME – and Write to him and to the Front National.
