08/29/2007: "Italians make laws against immigrant misbehavior"

Illegal immigrants in Italy earning a few coins by washing windscreens at traffic lights could face up to three months in jail after Florence launched a crackdown and other cities said they might follow suit.

Foreigners are also blamed for much of the street crime in a relatively safe country. Most people wielding sponges on street corners are Romanian gypsies, often young women and children.

But word got round quickly in historic Florence that city hall had introduced new rules enabling police to bring charges against window-washers, confiscate their equipment and start prosecutions that could end in fines and a prison sentence.

[ Europeans are gently forcing out the worst of the foreigners, and will force the rest out sooner. It's probably not a problem to have a few wandering around, but mass immigration is genocide. ]
