Like I've told you before. Gypsies know they have a reputation, and as a group, nothing happens to change these perceptions other than shouting "you're a racist" at people.
"In the 2011 census, 57,680 people identified themselves as members of categories which the government interpreted as belonging under the umbrella of GRT.[16][5] However, the British government website notes that much higher estimates, from 150,000 to 500,000 people exist."
So, let's say there are half a million.
There are 68 million people in the UK. So half a million would be one in 136 people, or 0.73% of the population. But 5% of the UK prison population if gypsy or traveller.
White people make up 81% of the population and 71% of the prison population.
Black people make up 4% of the population and have 12% of the prison population. Which is three times higher. Gypsies make up 6.8 times the number of their population, double what the next highest group per capita for prison population.
Statistics can be manipulated or misinterpteted even if it were true you could see it in another light for example of how many gypsies are there and how many are in prison in absolute numbers and then ask again if racially motivated violence against gypsies for example as one of the most extreme cases of discrimination is really justified if such a racially based discrimination ever can be really justified you also said in southafrica you were afraid of black men nowhere else that does mean you differentiate blacks and isolate it to specific situations but not with gypsies

Well, are you suggesting these statistics are being manipulated or misinterpreted?
Gypsies and travellers also have the lowest education achievement in the UK. The two are related. Lower educational achievement means you're more likely to commit crimes.
And I'd say a lot of the racially motivated language is probably just people getting angry at gypsies and travellers turning up in an area, doing whatever they like, threatening people, thieving, fighting etc and people just getting angry.
Like I've told you before, if they don't want to suffer these things, they could change how they live their lives.
They don't, they just use "racist" as a way of justifying their problems.

I think it goes both ways that they could change and also that society could change how they perceive and treat them i do think its not only their behaviour alone why people dislike but because they are roma too. I do think there are roma activists nowadays who try to help roma with job search education against child marriage etc i do suggest that the statistic is manipulated in the sense that you justify racially motivated violence and discrimination based on it for example if one in twenty gypsies is in prison that means that ninenty of twenty are not you justify racially motivated violence that by every standard can not be justified that is common sense

Imagine when you have 68 million people, and 67.5 million are expected to follow the laws, and half a million aren't.
All around the world, pretty much, we're developed a system where by people are born, they get educated, they get jobs to earn money, they buy a home, and then they die.
And half a million are like "we don't want to live like that. We want to travel around and turn up in random places and cause havoc. We can't hold downs, we don't keep our kids in school, this then leads us to committing crimes"
That makes no sense.
You don't travel around. You seem to be quite stable. The gypsy who was a friend of my ex in Spain was at university, had a stable life. And these are the gypsies that nobody notices, because they fit in, they act sensibly.
The ones who don't, cause all kinds of problems for themselves, and it causes disruption in society, it causes disruption in their own lives.
I'm sure there are people who do try and help, but the problem with "discrimination" is, it's not because they're Roma or gyspies or travellers, it's because they cause problems. If they don't, people don't care.
