9 AnswersFIFA World Cup (TM)2 decades agoAm I racist toward gypsies?
I grew up in Alabama when racial segregation was still legal. I have fought racism all my life. Even gone toe to toe with the KKK.
Now, I live in France and this morning, I passed a park that overnight had, again, become a campground for 400 gypsy trailers.
1) Local taxes are high and they don't pay any. They leave all their trash behind.
2) They use fire hydrants for their water. Water in France is screamingly expensive. I don't water my grass because it is too expensive. They don't pay for this water either.
3) They say that their children are schooled by a mobile school room like the book-mobile but in 20 years, I have seen gypsies here every winter and I have seen this famous school-mobile twice. Overnight.
4) If these people are poor, why to they have satellite dishes on top of their trailers, and these people have no visible means of support.
OK, the thing about this situation is that I am ashamed that it bothers me. Am I a racist?

8 AnswersMedicine2 decades agoLooking for a good recipe for horse meat.?
I'm serious. I made a horse meat stir-fry the other day and it was delicious. Then I tried a horse stroganoff. It was good too. I live in France and they have horse meat in the grocery store.
It is very similar to beef but really lean like ostrich or kangaroo.
Does anybody have a good recipe? Wise-cracks are not required.
13 AnswersCooking & Recipes2 decades agoShould I change my nickname out of respect for hurricane victims?
I have been using the nickname Hurricane Camille on the internet since 1997. It was the 8th biggest storm of the 20th century. It destroyed the Gulf Coast in 1969.
Now it seems kinda creepy. Particularly since my real life nickname is Katrina.
Do you think that it is insensitive or offensive?
