Damn Irish

I had to laugh when I read the headlines two weeks ago. Six foreign nationals arrested for ATM skimming scam. Supposedly the people arrested were Irish and Romanian. But it took less than a second for my feeble old brain to figure out that this was a gypsy ring.

The gypsy or Roma travelers are huge in Ireland these days. But you are not allowed to say Gypsy any more because it is not politically correct so you instead have to say "Irish and Romanian nationals."

Took one look at their last names to figure out that my deduction was correct. 

The Codreanu family, at it again, with a Ciuciu and a Zamfir mixed in as well. All Roma.

These people have practiced the art of thievery for hundreds of years, scamming, pickpockets, it is a matter of pride for them. Why pretend they are not gypsies? I got scammed by a gypsy girl with a kid and her mom at a gas station in Northern California but told them I knew it was a scam, just felt for the little girl.

They are shameless.

I was reading about the pickpocket problem in Italy, it is terrible. Damn Irish again.

Mom used to say that we had Romani in us. Of course, she would lie about anything
