Sounds like you guys hate gypsies therefore being called a gypsy is offensive.

from what ive read, some, find it offensive, none that i found liken it to the n word and some do not find it offensive.

Gypsy, as in the definition, refers to a people in common language, same as Jewish people even call themselves Jews, its a term for the Jewish people.

The n word is not in common language referring to people, it was a slang word created to name a race of people. The Gypsy term is referencing a people.

So, me be American, if someone called me a Gypsy or a Jew or some other race then i don't see the rush to condemn other than they called me a name, i mean, isn't that like calling me a turd or something?

And, "American" can and has been used in a malicious way, should we go after anyone that does?

Replace Gypsy with slang for another ethnic group and see how that quote sounds.


I don't see how this doesn't violate the rule -- Calling another player a slang term for an ethnic group.
We ban people for putting German last names in their username, under the racism rule, but this is a stretch?

we dont ban German last names, we ban or make them change the name a certain few with last names that murdered millions of people, if you cant tell the difference then i guess we got problems with your knowledge.

With your statement, are you calling the Gypsy's inferior or group that needs to be condemned? I sure hope not...

asking a question, "so are people allowed to be racist on HOG" is a stupid question, as you already know the answer and by you asking that only makes for more argument, which i assume is your goal.

As haley said, you seem to be more upset with the Gypsy people than the term, i googled it in my last post is what i found. You are liking it to the n word because, well, you dont like Gypsy's and dont like being called one, that's how it comes across to us.
