Italy cracks down, officially and unofficially:
Underscoring the new Italian government’s determination to crack down on illegal immigration and what the government contends is associated crime, Italy’s police arrested hundreds of people this week in a sweep of migrant shantytowns in major urban areas across the country, the police announced Thursday…. On Saturday, several hundred Italians attacked a camp of Roma, or Gypsies, on the eastern outskirts of Naples brandishing sticks and throwing homemade incendiary devices, after a 16-year-old Roma girl was accused of trying to steal a baby.
Apparently Bossi wasn’t just talking smack when he said that his supporters were ready to clean house if the government didn’t do it. I won’t be surprised if Italy leaves the European Union within 10 years. They hate the Germans, they hate Brussels, they hate the Roma, and they really hate the Euro and the rising prices that came with it.
