In a local newspaper ‘informationen’ I recently learned how countries like Denmark, Sweden and now France justify there reason to persecute and deport the Roman people out of their country. I know from my professional background that the Roman people are hard to adjust into society, that they often support them self by robbery and stealing. Just because they don’t fit into our westernized way of living does that give legitimate reason to kick them out of the country? I my opinion that doesn’t goes hand in hand with how we should represent human rights if we are to!

In some way or another it draws a parallel to what happened during the second world where the Jews people became the scapegoat of all time. Zygmunt Bauman a famous sociologist had categories what happened in Germany as ‘Holocaust’. The Holocaust was defined as a the systematic, bureaucratic, state-sponsored persecution and murder of approximately six million Jews by the Nazi regime and its collaborators.

In an article brought in AP – associated Press – by CECILE ROUX, JENNY BARCHFIELD reports about what recently happened in France

“SAINT OUEN, France — French President Nicolas Sarkozy has ordered authorities to expel Gypsy illegal immigrants and dismantle their camps, amid accusations that his government is acting racist in its treatment of the group known as Roma.

Sarkozy called a government meeting Wednesday after Gypsies clashed with police this month following the shooting death of a youth fleeing officers in the Loire Valley.

Sarkozy said those responsible for the clashes would be "severely punished" and ordered the government to expel all illegal Roma immigrants, almost all of whom have come from eastern Europe.

He pushed for a change in France's immigration law to make such expulsion easier "for reasons of public order." He said illegal Gypsy camps "will be systematically evacuated," calling them sources of trafficking, exploitation of children and prostitution.

The language has chilling undertones in a country where authorities rounded up Gypsies and sent them to concentration camps during the Nazi occupation in World War II. Former President Jacques Chirac, the first French leader to acknowledge the state's role in the Holocaust, condemned "the Nazi madness that wanted to eliminate the Gypsies.”

Have we not learned anything from the holocaust? Are mankind so ignorent and blindfolded that we can not learn from our mistake? The freedom to act and behave differently obviosly solemly belongs to those in administration… In the point development seems to go backwards

This way of treating and persecuting people seems to be anchored way deep. Looking through the glasses of existentialism it seems to be combined with the financial recession which has let to shrinking conformity, lack of control and rising prejudice towards those who seems to be a threat to our way of living. To day it’s the Roman people tomorrow it could be some one else..
