I personally would have no trouble demanding that the use of the word "Pikey" not be allowed on this forum, since it is obviously being used in a derogatory manner.

I also think that we must take on the most horrible of crimes, regardless of where they lead us, and that includes the pope, high officials, etc. The law must be sure and swift, and of course, just.

I also think we need to look for legal ways to prevent the evictions, and non-legal ways to end both discrimination of traditionally "out" groups, and also help them organize themselves so that the sore points with the "in" groups are minimized. I am talking about less grevious issues than slavery, sex trafficing, etc...more along the lines of garbage disposal, loud or boisterous conduct etc...and this applies to everyone..not a particular group we have been discussing..and of course should apply at least as severely to the "majority" group or groups.
