Best Answer

Many people were murdered, including gypsies, not because of the threat they were to Germany, but because they were considered to be less-desirable, immoral, dirty, impure, of bad influence, etc. Gypsies were/are criminal families that operated in most European countries, especially in the Balkans. They were greatly disliked or hated by most Europeans, especially the Germans. Gypsy children were raised by their parents to participate in their criminal activities, primarily theft.

Who did Hitler's policies of hate target?

Hitler and the Nazis targeted everyone who they believed were "not pure." When we think of the Holocaust, we usually think of the murder of the Jews, but many other groups were also persecuted. This includes roma (gypsies), homosexuals, the mentally or physically disabled, opponents of the Nazis, Jehovah's witnesses, social "misfits", and basically anyone else who did not meet their standards.
