In today’s edition, the Belgian newspaper Het Nieuwsblad writes that it has learned from its sources that the 16-year old boy who was arrested earlier this week for the murder of 17-year old Joe Van Holsbeeck, is called Marius. He belongs to a family of Polish gypsies who have been living in Belgium illegally since 2000.

They are Gypsies, aren't they? So what?

So, my mother told me of getting a phone calls every so often in the summer, from farmers down the line warning that Gypsies were coming. This was in the US on the Great Plains during 1920s and 30s.

You ran and locked everything up. You went out to the fields to bring back the men and handed them their already loaded shotguns when they reached the house. Your big dogs were right there. All to greet the Model-T Ford full of Gypsies.

If you were fool enough to let any of them get out and move around, their kids would be off in dozen directions grabbing anything they could steal.

You just gave them whatever they said they wanted as a pretext for stopping and wished them on their way. Then you ran to the phone and warned the next family.

It's their culture. Many American businesses will not accept credit card orders from Romania. The fraud rate is sky high.

A nation without a border that IT controls doesn't even really exist.

Once again political correctness prevent media from mentioning the word GYPSY when necessary.  (once about individual case is not enough) While spiting on Romanians over and over is of course absolutely OK. 

traveller I think you are right Romania shouldn’t have been allowed to join EU.

As fellow posters have stated correctly, Rumania once was a highly cultivated country. The Austrian Empire invested enourmous financial and human resources in order to extend western European civilization to this remote place. Then, after a lot of turmoil and the sacrifice of central Europe to Stalin, Ceaucescu came. In good communist tradition, he selected the least educated (but) most brutal segement of society, and gave them enourmous privileges in return for them terrorizing and finally wiping out what communists love to call bourgoisie, the productive part of society. All these Pol-Potesque events happened with a lot of moral and financial support by western, mainly French governments. Now we get presented the bill. But rest assured, the few remaining real Romanians do not like the Cigans either as they behave there the same they do over here.

I know that but I don't want to be prosecuted for racism here. I hope your country will be back on it's feet but your people have to take serious action.
With my good wishes for you and your people.

Would you rather have Romanian's who 90% of the time are more than likely Christians, or would you rather have Muslims entering your country?  I think the choice is obvious.  Either/or, no one is above the law of the land they are entering, and that has to be adhered to!

Being a Romanian, living in the US, I am deeply sorry for this.

Pointing out that the vast majority of the crimes are committed by gypsies, wouldn't help I guess... 

For those people who think I am racist or anti-romanian, following remark:

In 1966 I was the first time in Bucarest and visited the National Museum. To my utter astonishment I found the most beeautiful impressionist paintings by romanian artists from BEFORE the time of the french impressionists. I was convinced to be in a country of culture. My personal experiences afterwards made me conclude that marxism had wiped out the romanian culture and fabric of society, which was proven dozens of times to me. I hope they recover but it will take years.

I know Romania intimately since many years, their values are located with the top 20% of the population, the rest is to poor to worry about values. Under the communists it was normal to lie, steal and cheat to survive. Prostitution, child abuse, drugs, juvenile delinquency is normal and common.
Either Europe steps in, which they can't do because they don't have the tools nor the moral strength or they let it fester. In any case another country which shouldn't have been allowed in.
