I visited Romania with the U.S. Navy before their revolution. The country is mostly peasant stock and prone to violent aggression. That is why they had a repressive Communist government and a dictator. Kind of sounds like Chicago, USA. Who brings fence posts and iron bars to a friendly fight?

Not sure if they’re all Romanian. Maybe Gypsy vs. Turk?
