More Crime … Geneva

Published by:

More Crime … Geneva

A sordid story of a mal prostitute from Romania and his client and violence. The prostitute slit the throat of the client in whose flat he was living, killed the dogs and torched the flat.

OK, it is crime. What is the relevance here of the fact that the two criminals were Rroma? Does it add anything or does it just strengthen stereotypes?

Geneva Police in Romania

Published by:

Geneva Police in Romania

The Geneva police went to investigate a case of human trafficking – a man accused to have sold his invalid son to go and beg in Geneva. As usual, stereotypes prevail. No one has so far proven that there are criminal clans engaged in begging. There are families who live from that, but this is about it. And it is not a business – not for 20 CHF per day.

French Chronicle …

Our usual summary of what is going on in France regarding Rroma… In the North, the mayor of Wissous orders the closure of the Rroma camp; a squat where Rroma lived was closed in Bordeaux; in Creteil, Rroma living in the old buildings of the cemetarry’s undertaker have to leave; in the South, a mayor states that “not only Rroma are engaged in uncivil activities”; in Amiens, one of three escaped criminals (two Moldavians and a Rromanian) surrendered – and a commentary states “all the roads lead to Rroma” – even though nothing in the article states they are Rroma; garbage was removed from the site of a Rroma camp near Paris; in Lyon, discussions are ongoing about lodging homeless and Rroma; and finally a fire in a Rroma camps that only provoked several articles as it closed a major highway near Paris.

Argument against Compassion: A Must Read for Counterarguments

Published by:

Argument against Compassion: A Must Read for Counterarguments

Read this… Badly thought arguments, and the way against them on the refugee crisis. The paragraph on Rroma is particularly scary: The argument goes as follows: Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria have not managed to integrated their Rroma, so they cannot take on any refugees.

The right way to say it: Nationalistic policies have tried to ethnicise and segregate minorities, and these have failed. Has nothing to do with refugees, and all to do with tolerance.

France: Romanian Policemen in Paris

Published by:

Romanian Police is patrolling Paris to “protect” against the “Rroma criminality”. Officially, this is to have people speaking Romanian. But the Romanian police has a very bad track record of racism against Rroma…

Dangerous.

How daft…

How daft…

Some populists miss no occasion to be populist, prejudiced, racist, and spread idiotic information. This is the case here with Breitbart, a conservative US based news Network. Based on a fight between two Romanian Rroma families in Essen Germany, and the fact that a German newspaper also cited “Arabs” and criminals in the report, Breitbart makes a headline of criminal Gypsy and Arab gangs.

One should say STOP RACISM and START THINKING! This is not journalism, this is actual idiocy. It has to stop.

Street Fight in Essen

Published by:

Street Fight in Essen

A street fight in Essen between two Rroma groups – probably from Romania, degenerated into a real street battle involving up to over 1’000 people according to police source. Thses fights continued later on.

This has given opportunity to several papers to equate all Rroma with criminal and to “throw in” an ounce of “criminal Arabs” into the fray to give a view that all migrants are surely criminals and that one needs to get rid to them.

Let’s call this by it’s name: This is POPULISM and RACISM.
