  1. There are two problems in play here, and the racist attitude of the judge is the worse one. Fix that and the country can start cracking down on the other.

  2. wtf Pedro, a pedophile is a pedophile, regardless of him/her being a cigan, an immigrant, a native, a separatist, an oligarch, or a priest

  3. Yup. Yup, yup, yup… hundreds of years and we are still like this.

  4. impregnate a woman vs impregnate wood… does Barry really use the same word for that?

  5. If you change gypsy to redneck this happens quite a lot in some  US states. They get round the rape charge by marrying their victims. Fucked up indeed

  6. No. Just no. Food is culture. Dance. Crafts. History. Parts of religion.

    Raping little girls because “we always kidnapped and raped girls” needs to be punished and rotten out.

  7. I really hoped this was a satirical news media like the onion…

  8. “1 minute read.”

    It’s good to see long-form investigative journalism is alive and well.

  9. The judge should be punished.

    Harshly.

    The gypsy too, but that needs no saying.

  10. Does anyone have more info about this?

    It looks like blatant rage bait/fake story to me

  11. One of my aunts became a mother at 15 with her late husband.

  12. Is the 12yo the “wife” or something? Hard to believe they’d get away with doing that to a random Spanish citizen. I haven’t lost THAT much faith in humanity.

  13. > The court though found him not guilty by applying an article of the Penal Code which states that consent under the age of 16 may exclude criminal liability when the perpetrator is a person close in age to the minor and have the same degree of physical and psychological development or maturity.

  14. Both the rapist and the judge should be hanged.

  15. not to defend them, i think challenging problematic cultural practices is needed, but the wording is intentionally leaving context out. sensationalist journalism is not cool

    it made it sound like this guy just picked a random girl and did his thing and spain was like “well, la vida es una lenteja 🤷🏻‍♂️” when it was a very fucked up arranged marriage that IS common within their community and can not be dealt with with aggression without working against integration, but we are not here to have nuanced debates so scrap that and insert thr mourinho gif

  16. I mean, I share most people’s feelings about them, but that reads a bit too much like rage bait.

  17. You know that the article is going to be an honest, unbiased representation of the situation when literally the first word in the title is a racial slur.

  18. Well at least some of the 6millon thr nazis killed was justified

  19. We could all put some money, buy some land in northern india and give them a state

  20. Americans: “Europeans are racists too. Look how the treat cigans.”

    The cigans in question:

  21. And killing gypsies used to be part of European culture, so…

  22. Are there any other media outlets that are reporting this? I’ve never heard of the olive press and I don’t want to google gypsy rape.

  23. Spanish law seems to pardon criminals way too often… A criminal is a criminal and jail is a modern blessing to their actions in comparison to what we would’ve done 150 years ago…

    I am not saying we should bring back firing squads but a bit of hard labour out in the sun should be mandatory.

  24. I can’t believe this. Is there in Spain a government website where they publish the official conclusions of the court ? I will need to read from an official document to believe this

  25. Not part of our culture

    If you rape a girl, even if you are family you’ll most likely get killed

    Definitely acquitted to the police otherwise

    Except if it’s just an entire rotten family I guess

  26. They were outcasts from India, bloody India! What did you expect? Wherever they live is a no go zone. Same thing here in Britain. Go see documentaries on Central Asia and see how they are treated over there.

  27. Wtf spain you have been going downhill, where is the spanish inquisition when you need it ?

    Time to set fuckers on fire
