Police and interpretitions

I think I see why the police thought the young gypsy was a thief. He had a lot of other people's social security numbers and identification cards. They just knew they had an identity thief in there clutches. If you look at it from an American view, identity thief i in America till this day is on the rise and with the ailing economy it seems the thing to do to some thieves. In the gypsy culture it is tradition to hide and use false identification for a cultural reasons. One to stay hidden from the persecution of Gypsies in Medieval Europe, two to survive the Holocaust and the early part of the 20Th century.

The American way of law considers these acts to be fraudulent. while the gypsies consider it a way of life and survival.
