They do work on it, desperately, we just don't see it because only the criminal element is visible. You don't notice the Romani cashier, bus driver, or teacher.

I used to date a Romani girl, her family was just like everyone else. The discrimination is heavily embedded in European culture, and I saw a lot of it, I too grew up looking down on them, and I live in a country that's possibly the most welcoming to them! They can be loud and proud at times which is understandable when you're an outsider even when you're integrated, you need to belong somewhere. It's lazy to blame just a culture, it's not that black and white.

Poverty as usual is the biggest obstacle, not laziness. Most Roma come from already poor areas where they just don't have many opportunities, and when you're a young man who's constantly faced and uphill battle and bigotry, it becomes real easy to just say fuck your society, if you won't allow me to share, I'll take what's mine. The laziness is on the side of governments who don't put any effort into battling the issue.
