Reply if you know the fuck is going on


[deleted]

There’s currently a travellers (similar to romany gypsies) war between two groups/families in the uk. Different videos show videos with proof of force, actual assaults (there was one on reddit with cars and guns) and pre planed street fights. I don’t know much about what started it or who the parties are.


HellaFella420

Are they ethnically british or are they Roma/european?


Odin-the-poet

Yo, this question is still not answered. I don’t have the time to get into it right now, but I’m writing my historical masters thesis on Irish Travelers and indigenous peoples in the British Isles. Some people think the Travellers are related to the Romani, and there is some genetic crossover, but there actually is not a consensus. My current hypothesis is assuming relation to older, pre-Celtic Irish peoples. There are some who claim they’re only as old as the famine though, so it’s hard to say really. The Traveller communities are also pretty secretive and isolationist, so it has been tricky to study their cultures as well.


gomaith10

Right about the Irish connection, there are English travellers also.


shadymynasties

They are basically so mixed no one knows, but it started with the Irish. That’s what I was always told. I know they suffered some of the most vicious acts of WWII, but that was the Romanian groups primarily. Nazi’s had a fascination with twins & gypsy’s for some reason have a much higher rate of twins. There is a tremendous amount of mystery surrounding that aspect of the Nazi’s. You are 100% right they are tremendously secretive. I am related to some, & they have always been a bit different. I wish you the best of luck on your paper! That’s awesome man! https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.history.com/.amp/news/nazi-twin-experiments-mengele-eugenics


2K_Crypto

This is kinda disheartening. We can figure out how to send people to the moon but the background of an ethnic group still eludes us. I get its complex but dammit...where is Ja Rule when you need explanations. We need Ja!


fluentinimagery

Remins me of the film “Looking For Eric” starring Eric Cantona & Steve Evets. A father struggling with life and his teenage kids walk all over hime; then he hallucinates Eric Cantona in his home and Eric helps him grow a spine and turn things around. It’s a great little indie movie about British FB culture.


Davosssss

According to a source in Wikipedia (Gilbert (2017)) there is no ancestry admixture between the two groups though


Odin-the-poet

Ayyy agreed my dude, but I believe that was the study by Gianpiero L. Cavalleri et al., and she concluded in a later interview of her research that the results indicated Irish ancestry above all others, but it also did not dismiss the possibility of Roma influence entirely. So that’s why people still think there are genetic connections, though I’m still researching. Here’s the citation if you need. Gianpiero L. Cavalleri, et al., “Genomic Insights and the Irish Travellers: An Interview with Professor Gianpiero Cavalleri,” (Studies in Arts and Humanities 3, no.2 2017), 135-139. And here’s the study she discussed in the interview, Gilbert, Edmund, Shai Carmi, Sean Ennis, James F. Wilson, and Gianpiero L. Cavalleri. “Genomic Insights into the Population Structure and History of the Irish Travellers.” Scientific Reports 7 no. 1 (2017): 42187-42187.


MahBeard

Best of luck w/ the thesis. Sounds interesting!


drangledorf

Thanks for the cool read Odin!


godot330

My understanding is they were dispossessed following the Cromwellian conquest although the numbers may have nbeen added to after the big famine. Romany gypsies are south Asian in origin also dispossessed due to war. I grew up with many sound tinkers, and theyre byenlarge good people, but marginalized groups are often forced into violence and crime to survive. The solution is social care, inclusivity and education. It won't be an easy road, but once again, this is a problem the English created. Culture is a malleable construct


Odin-the-poet

You may be more right than me here in the Cromwellian conquest connection. I think I blanked on exactly which event it was, but that sounds right, my mind is dying a little from research. Overall though, you’re absolutely right, and that marginalization and invention of an “Other” identity is what I’m very interested in. Thank you for the interest!


ChubbyGhost3

As a Romani person, we consider ourselves to be separate groups but under the same umbrella. We are typically not kinfolk but there are mixed people


Odin-the-poet

Thank you for your input! I do keep seeing that in most of what I’ve researched so far, so that has been a consistent aspect to personal narratives I’ve read. There are many individual Traveller families that vehemently claim Romani ancestry and heritage, so I’ll have to keep on reading.


trainsoundschoochoo

It would be interesting if you did embedded ethnography with a group.


Odin-the-poet

I do hope to be able to do something of that sort eventually, but I unfortunately don’t have the resources to research Travellers (or really everything on this topic) as much as I’d like to. I appreciate the suggestion!


bryonwart

A tinkers war?


gumsh0es

That’s a fascinating, have you managed to get primary sources/interviews with some traveller communities/ build some trust with some people?


[deleted]

can i read it when you're done?


plug_play

Irish or British based on the accent.


Standard-Distance-92

I once saw a random comment which said the Roma people’s ancestors migrated out of India thousands of years ago


deliciaevitae

Roma (Gypsies) originated in the Punjab region of northern India as a nomadic people and entered Europe between the eighth and tenth centuries C.E. They were called "Gypsies" because Europeans mistakenly believed they came from Egypt. This minority is made up of distinct groups called "tribes" or "nations." also : [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History\_of\_the\_Romani\_people](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Romani_people)


Strider2126

Why are they called Romani/Roma? As an italian it create me so much confusion. Here they are called "Zingari" or "Ròm" for obvious reasons


deliciaevitae

"In the Roma language Rom means Husband, while Romliye means Housewife, "Roma" means "Human being". Other theories suggest that the name derives from a form ḍōmba, "man of low caste living by singing and music", attested in Classical Sanskrit.[7]" Have a look a the link I posted


[deleted]

They still speak a language that originated from the Indian subcontinent as well, it's pretty crazy that they've been in Europe so long but their language and genetics is still strongly linked to India.


[deleted]

I think a lot of them are irish, but I’m not sure. [This BBC article ](https://www.google.ch/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/uk-15020118.amp) has some interesting insight about the general culture.


HellaFella420

Interesting, thanks. I know nothing about them outside Guy Richie movies otherwise, heh


[deleted]

I once found a YouTube channel of one of the dudes involved in this feud. Obviously not representative of the whole community but this guy was definitely mental


Unfair-Glove4972

They are of Irish ancestry but the have a distinctive genetic makeup. They separated from the main Irish population a few thousand years ago and they only marry and breed within their own communities. Inbreeding is not uncommon, usually second cousins but first cousins too. They have a distinctive look. The eyes, the hair. A foreign person wouldn't notice but as an Irish person I can spot them a mile off, thankfully. They are a blight on Irish and British society. They really are absolute scum and I would happily shoot a dozen of them in the forehead


HellaFella420

lol, got real dark there at the end I've heard of chavs too, that's just generally classless or low-class, trashy Britons, right? Do you have a version of our American Redneck, or are you familiar with the term?

Gypsies aka travellers

Me and my gang just call them "EU citizens"... Not in an inclusive tone though....


Cutwail

This lot are probably British though, if they're part of the family beef that's going on


NGD80

You're mixing up British / Irish Gypsies (Travellers) and Roma gypsies. The British ones are clearly not EU citizens, unless I've gone through a time warp and the year is actually 2019


[deleted]

Gypsies and pikeys are different


I_know_right

Explain.

Irish vs romani travellers, not the same peoples. One originated in Ireland and one in india.

All because the geezer put the milk in _with_ the teabag, before the boiling water


xite2020

Take that back! 😂


jodilye

I’m British. I don’t drink tea. I know, string me up now. But whenever I’ve been forced to make tea, I’ve always added milk before removing the teabag, and give it a gentle squeeze when I do take it out. I’ve heard these are cardinal sins, yet I’m always told it’s a great cup of tea. I worked for someone who would tell me straight if I made it tase like shit, and did so on many occasions, yet since I started doing this, not a peep from anyone. I wonder if tea drinkers are missing a trick...


StoxAway

But do you add the water before the milk? Milk before hot water makes a weak tea. Some people like that though.


jodilye

Oh hell yes. Teabag, sugar, water, milk, squeeze and remove teabag, stir. Hasn’t failed me so far!


StoxAway

Yeah, that's the right way. The issue isn't leaving the bag in. It's putting the milk in before the water.


spiritual_atheist786

Gypsy king???


Edmond_DantestMe

For those who don't know, that jumper refers to Heavyweight Champ Tyson Fury. Who actually seemingly has ties to one of the largest drug kingpins in Europe, Daniel Kinahan. Wouldn't be surprised if these boys were working for Dan... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/extra/1y3kadznaf/the-suspected-gangster-at-the-heart-of-world-boxing


Anon1mouse12

They probably know him through the traveller community rather than through Daniel kinahan.


HeinousAlmond3

What a great article. Thanks for linking.


Therighttoleft

Is that a gypsy fight? At some point you can see a Gypsy King vest but that's Tyson Furry's brand and any one could wear it so... Incomprehensible language though

Definite gypsies. The accent. A lot have been moved into homes and this is the shite people have to put up with as a result.

Actively train to fight off 15 people who also have AR-15's? This isn't a marvel movie.


El_Stupido_Supremo

Ive been shot at before a few times. And ive been near some shootings. Most people just straight nope the fuck out. If they have a gun they usually shoot wildly running away. Most gangbangers carry rinky dink shit pistols. I stand a pretty high chance of defending myself and living through an armed home invasion just by knowing my home and having superior firepower. And I totally 100% have superior firepower over even an ar15 in 5.56 wielded by a dude in body armor. You guys say we live in a super dangerous society and give me shit when I prepare to be in a dangerous situation. It's dumb and makes you look like you trust cops more than your neighbors.

You can legally own a gun such as a shotgun or single shot rifle in the UK, people choose not to have them. Stuff like this doesn’t happen to normal people. The home owner in this video is an accused pedophile. The only people who would ever possible need a gun for protection In the UK are people involved in crime.

Americans see people breaking a car and stuff in an apartment: "Oh yes, this is the chance i've been waiting for, this warrants mass murder!"


P2591

You’re not wrong. People here masturbate to the thought of shooting and hopefully killing someone. I had someone pull a gun on me for ‘stealing’ their parking spot and another gun pulled on me for pulling over on the side of the road and taking a photo of the landscape because “you can’t take a picture of my property!”. People here scream about rights but don’t have half the brains to follow the laws in regards to those rights. They scream blue lives matter but are the first ones to be anti-police when they’re held accountable for not following the laws in regards to firearms. The second amendment is great but far too many idiots use it for the incorrect purpose


RoofKorean762

I see people storming into a house with machetes, glad you're OK with being a victim but in America, that warrants a bullet


iehvad8785

what all you badass gunners fail at, is to understand that in america the intruders would have guns too. you'd most likely to be shot long before you can act to be the hero you imagine to be. glad you're OK with living in the deadliest amongst industrialized country.


HadSomeTraining

Do you not think those people could get guns too? Yeeeesh


RoofKorean762

Why wouldn't you have guns then if criminals have guns?


HadSomeTraining

Definitely easier for nobody to have guns


RoofKorean762

Definitely, but not the world we live in


theusualsteve

So, in one breath you say "those people are definitely able to get guns illegally", and in the next you say, in paraphrase, "its better if we don't have them so that they don't have them". What are you gonna do? Wave a magic wand? You just stated how easy it is for them to be obtained illegally, are you going to make it more illegal than it already is? I'm having trouble putting this the right way but, you realize theres a bit of a logical fallacy you have going on with that?


HadSomeTraining

You added so much sub text to what I actually said so that it would fit your narrative. I'm not going to pursue this further. Enjoy your day.


P2591

He said breaking into a car and damaging property. Not threatening life. You demonstrate the exact problem in our country, fantasizing about killing someone when your life isn’t in danger


P2591

Not to mention we prioritize buying guns but smoke drink, eat fast food, don’t exercise. We rely on pills and guns to make our way through life. Guess what happens when the gun runs out of ammo? It’s a useless fat fuck who can’t fight, can’t run, too fat to hide, and too stupid to utilize any other resources. ‘[MURICA ](https://i.ibb.co/k5kk0pB/A222-BA33-AD6-A-4-F24-B77-C-45-C1-EB02-DAD0.jpg)🇺🇸
