Friend, the people in the show are Irish Travelers, you're thinking of Romani people. If you watch the show there is an episode with a Romani girl though. G*psie is considered a slur by Romani people and the show itself is pretty terrible.
I watched a few episodes of season 1, and they called themselves Romani numerous times.

If they say they are from Ireland they cannot be the Romani people who are called gypsies, not the same people at all
But I think it is pretty obvious this is just another "reality" show with shitty actors and an even shittier plot

some guy I know got accousted by a group of men but he was black and he played it off like he was american drug cartel gangster and they let him walk
Yeah, I grew up in a gypsy neighborhood in southern france, they're dirty as fuck but they're not all bad people and they have a pretty complicated history. Most kids start smoking around age 10 too (or younger), it's pretty weird.

There were a decent amount of gypsies over here ten years ago, and then Bulgaria and Romania became EU members and now you can't go downtown without hearing the Godfather theme on accordion.

I consider Accordion players who roam Berlin the musical version of the common housefly.

Ohh, they play the Godfather theme there?
Here it's usually off key Tonavan Aallot, aka Valurile Dunari:
There used to be a lot of Finn gypsies living in Sweden(especially in Göteborg), dunno what's the situ now

I think the finnish gypsies are mostly in the east, around Stockholm, where the stereotype is they wear taxi jackets and brown slacks. But I don't know. My first day after moving to Göteborg I was hassled by a gypsy couple who spoke swedish, and their accents might have been finnish, or else magyar, because I can't tell the difference.
Anyway:
Also Aquarela do Brazil has become a popular street accordion song. Stop ruining classic movies!

Yeah, I don't see where anyone said anything racist in this thread though, it's all facts 
And yeah, they play this ridiculous accordion music here too.
