Mall gypsies/Irish Travelers?
Vita asked:
I’ve googled both terms, and on the web the two seem nearly interchangeable. I recently heard from a friend that the “gypsies,” as they’re known, form a sort of foreign, nomadic group and frequent malls, scamming retailers out of thousands of dollars. Can this be possible? I’ve never in my life heard of such “gypsies” until now, but they’ve apparently got some sort of hold on our North American industries. More than anything, I’m just curious
Can anyone clarify??

Thanks so much!
I have heard of gypsies, no doubt, good sir. And in fact, have met several. But mall gypsies, I’ve been told, are of a different variety altogether.
Remember life prior to the world wide web and cell phones?

Dont get me wrong i love technoloy and all it brings us but i think our personal interactions as a society have suffered. Most people alienate themselves from others by talking on there cell phones all the time, in parks, malls, gyms etc.. Kids used to go out and play ball or ride bikes all day long etc.. now they are all gaining weight in front of some piece of technology. Interested in all opinions good and bad.
