The Gypsies in Spain are looked down upon as "suspicious foreigners" who travel in large families. They are perceived as entrepreneurs in thievery, con games, drug dealing and extorting money from tourists and elderly citizens. Like the African-American situation in U.S.A., a disproportionate number of young adults gypsies are in prison or on probation.
