"you can't 'Stamp out' racism"
No you can't, but you can neutralise its effects.
Britain has laws against the incitement to race hatred, which is exactly what is happeng here.
Those laws do not apparently apply to the Travelling communities.
"You say that DNA evidence etc etc."
No I don't, society does - it's a recognised definition.
The rest of your posting says nothing and in no way attempts to explain yours or Bluesman's racism - or tell us of your own "adventures among the Travelling People.
Do I have it correct - now that I am no longer a resident in the UK I have no right to comment on what happens there - or Libya, or Syria, or Israel.
They really should make a sit-com about Little Englanders - oh, there is one, isn't there?
I really do suggest you learn about Travellers before you decide to make them the victims of your bigotry (or let somebody do it on your behalf).
By the way Bluesman - did you know that as recently as a month or so ago the weapons being used against the Libyan rebels had been supplied by Britain - after the present hostilities had commenced.
