"The fears and problems we are talking about are not groundless."
I was once beaten up by four drunk Chelsea supporters who nearly rammed aour car -
What do you suggest - that I buy an Uzi and wait for the crowds to comeout of Stamford Bridge?
On the other hand, I worked, for a time constantly with "Irish gypsies" from 1973 to 2005 without ever being (or even feeling) threatened, nevver having been robbed and certainly never assaulted.
Blaming the behaviour of a (miniscule it would appear) group of criminals on a whole community, or in Keith's case, a whole culture is mindless and thuggish racism - show us where it isn't.
If taken seriously, Keith's suggestions would affect an entire community of a million people - please don't plead sympathy for somebody who time after time has used this forum to spout a racist philosophy
Don't get sucked in to this vicious mindset.
