BobKnight The 'Gypsy' Controversy (40) RE: The 'Gypsy' Controversary 05 Sep 18

As one who comes from a Scottish traveller background, I can tell you now, there is a difference between travellers and gypsies. They are NOT the same. I am NOT a gypsy, there are very few gypsies in Scotland, and although to members of the settled community we may seem "all the same," we are not.

If I was a gypsy, I'd proudly declare myself as one, but I'm not. I'm proud of my heritage as a Scottish traveller.
