Italy's interior minister has sparked criticism with a proposal that would see police fingerprinting all members of the Roma community living in camps.....Mr Maroni said the fingerprinting of Roma - or Gypsy - people would include "children too, to avoid phenomena like begging".....The blame for the rising crime has fallen on the Roma gypsy community and, in recent weeks, camps have been raided by police while others have been attacked and burnt by vigilante mobs, our correspondent adds.

(MD says.. Who next eh? Jews? Whities from Blighty? Red Assed Baboons?  Members of the Colin Fry buttock smacking appreciation society?...Anyway Fingerprinting Kids what's the big deal? ...  They have been fingerprinting kids, in our schools in the UK, just to assist in implementation of a school dinner system (Drugging), for quite a while. What we done but bow down to it? If we can't protect our owns kids rights, and we most definately can't, then who's going to care about gypsie camp children?)
