Why are so many ignorant of the fact that we as a a community withstood English rule and persecution and still survive today in Ireland, we are the oldest tribe in Ireland, yet we still suffer rasim and persecuation from our fellow Irish men and women ?

Of course you have travellers in your home state, they probably founded it, and since you are so good at matchmaking I think hillbilly Sue might suit you lol.

You're right not all travellers are thieves but unfortunately a high proportion are, much higher than in the settled community. Irish people fear travellers and there are good reasons to do so. Discrimination comes from this fear. If I owned a pub for example I wouldn't serve a traveller, to do so would be to take a risk, one that I'm not willing to take.
There are 30, 000 travellers in Ireland, how many thieves are in prison in Ireland, actually do you have the figure for how many thieves there are in Ireland, discrimination comes from ignorance and predjudice and not wanting to learn or mix with other cultures, you said it all by not taking a risk you put all travellers in the same box, we are not all the same.

I never said you were all the same. What I said was that there were a higher number of criminals in the travelling community than in the settled one, which is true. I don't know how many thieves are in Ireland but I can tell you that 20% of young offenders in our youth holding facility are travellers, in should be 1%, which is the national rate. That means young travellers are twenty times more likely to commit crime than settled youths.
There is absolutely nothing in traveller culture worth keeping; lack of education, marriage in late teens, lack of ambition, oversize families, welfare dependency.......traveller culture has it all. Everyone knows this but political correctness stops people from saying the truth.

The common folk don't care about irish travellers or as i like to call them. Them dirty gypsies. They act like chavs, loud, they steal and they leave a mess with their nasty caravans. Nobody likes them. True story.
