Geez kat.......I got through the first part and into the first link. A TON of material. I bookmarked it and I will keep reading over time. I'd also like to get Larry's take on it too.

Thanks for the link kat. It is a shame that one of you who were arguing so strongly in the gypsy thread didn't think to post it earlier.

Thanks, Kat. I tried to get some information on their legal organization in NYC but their website is down. I will call on Monday - may no longer be in existence. One page shows a woman in Maspeth Queens - the home of my current company - I will have to do a little hunting to find out more about them. Aine and Larry have given me a wake up call. There is a caravan which camps out in a local park in Queens every year. They are considered pariahs by all. I am ashamed to admit I never gave it much thought other than to leave them in peace.

Thanks, all. Jon, I didn't know about it until today, when I came across it while searching the web for the infamous lyrics, which I did not find.

DNA evidence traces the Roma origins to India, say Live Science.

Looks like they packed up and left during the night.

They aint cute, they are dirty and they beleive they have been granted special rights through a direct geneology to Adam's "first wife " Lilith who left Eden before the fall.

Since Lilith never committed original sin, and hence never fell from God's grace, her descendents are free to do whatever they like to those sinners who descended from Eve—which is to say All non - roma. Fraud and thievery are common...violence rare.

Not entirely suprising considering that this is a 12 year old thread.

Amazing what you find on the net, with just a few key words, stories just tumble out. Seems times never change..Rabble

I'd be interested if anyone can throw any light onto the original site that was posted twelve years ago.

My link at http://www.livescience.com/25294-origin-romani-people.html was not dead, at least to me.

I did see that page, Amos, but I was wondering about the JSCOLE reference in Kats original link. I've been unable to track that down.

Pity it isn't working. I wondered if the site might give me a lead in finding the tools nicked out of an industrial unit I had a few years ago...
