A family of gypsies in Greece has been accused of kidnapping a young girl. Though it it true that assuming this is true is a knee-jerk anti-gypsy response, there is also a knee-jerk liberal response. This article in the Guardian has it all:

http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/oct/22/angel-kidnapped-by-gypsies-libel-replayed

• there is an age-old libel that gypsies steal children
  • this is why the media have said that this is an example of it
• there is an age-old myth that Roma women are sexually licentious, and this is relevant to this story
  
  • I'd never heard of that
• the claim that Christians once thought Jews killed Christian children is also highly relevant
  • I've heard of that - many times.
• reporting on the case has been 'racist'
• gypsies have had their children taken by their European hosts, not the other way round
• etc. etc.

The article isn't about trying to evaluate the truth of the mysterious appearance of a blonde girl in a gypsy camp. It's about making political capital out of the widespread belief that European society is historically and uniquely racist.

I was once banned from commenting on a leftist site because of something I said about gypsies - or rather, about particular acts of particular gypsies - namely, trashing nice bits of countryside. This was because the owner of the site is an ultra-p.c. hypersensitive lefty. But the journalist who wrote "An angel kidnapped by Gypsies? In the absence of all the facts, age-old libels are being replayed." in the Guardian leaves Lenin's Tomb far behind in the more-pc-than-thou competition.
