Its def racist.


The video shows a parody of the stereotype gypsy, there is a difference between making a joke and promoting racial hatred.

Calling a romani a "black dude" could also very well be considered a racist remark, seeing how they do not originate from africa, it would not be unreasonable to conclude you consider their ethnicity non white.

I'm a relatively respectable citizen. Multiple felon perhaps, but certainly not dangerous.

Love it.

„One Punch“ Mickey O’Neil and his Bros. would love that, too!

Don't be scared, because being afk is not a crime.

I'm willing to bet good money that the picture is a photoshopped picture of the character Grga Pitic from Emir Kusturica's "Black Cat, White Cat". If you don't know what I'm talking about, look it up.

Also, being Romanian, I find this ad hilarious.
