No, his people were ROMANIANS - Gypsies or ROMANI people (which you're clearly confused about because it sounds a bit like Romania) are something different:
The Romani people (singular Rom, plural Roma as a noun; also known as Romanies) are an ethnic group with origins in South Asia. The Romani people are a widely dispersed ethnic group, with the largest concentrated populations in Europe and the Americas. They are often referred to as Gypsies or Gipsies.
Romania has a population of 19,409,400, and of that population only 535,250 (official census) are from the Romani ethnic group.
Let us learn more about the Romanian people:
More than 85 percent of Romania's people are Romanians by ancestry. The Romanian ethnogenesis was formed due to the Romanization of the Roman Province of Dacia. The Romanians are descended from the Dacians, (Daco-Getic, Thracian) and Roman legionnaires sent to fight against them.
The very idea that Vlad the Impaler was a Romani Gypsy is the same as suggesting that Emperor Jimmu was Indian - there is no evidence to suggest this.
Notice how no one has come to your defence to back up your stupid claim either - if you had a point, everyone would be rubbing my nose in it by now... but you don't.

Check it all up if you like:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanians
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roma_people
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vlad_III_the_Impaler
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emperor_Jimmu
Before anyone says "wikipedia is not a reliable reference" you would be correct, but frankly I doubt anyone is taking the time to deliberatley spread disinformation on the above links... it's not exactly like the wikipedia Jessus Christ article (which constantly gets slaughtered by trolls). The information I have cited can be verified by many sources other than Wikipedia, and if anyone seriously wants to take this to the next level - go to the library and disprove my point.
I'll conclude by saying that $haDe's view regarding Vlad Ţepeș's people as Gypsi is merely an error of language, which I hope this little response can clarify for the halfwit emonip.

Nobody has rubbed your nose in anything because half of Gnet has you on ignore and the other half couldn't give a shit less.

No, because I'm right and you'll never put me on ignore (even if you say you will) due to the fact that, despite my rough and ready style I do make a valid point about this forum and the minority of morons who strut around it like some laughable Chosen Elect who can dish the dirt but can't take it.

You're no match for me - I note with great delight that your failed attempt at poking "fun" at my person resulted in people damning you for being such a tryard.
And why? Because it was just a load of assuming horseshit that anyone can do.
Perhaps if you could have attacked the very nature of my personality, if you could have written down the very aspects of my character that made me so vulgar and aborhant people could have laughed.
But no, you didn't. You just used the typical "he lives with his mum" bullshit which every idiot who does live with his mother throws around the internet like fag jokes.
Just now on BBC Radio 4 there was a discussion of manhood, and how just over 50% of men now live with their mothers between the age of 18-24.
I do not however - I live at a flat with some mature students opposite the Tube at Kentish Town and have done so for about three years now. I'm 10 minutes walk from Camden Town, so not only is my social life richer than yours but my sex life also.
Nothing abnormal about that.
Now sit down and shut up.

Gnet has its fair share of arrogant fucks, but let's face it, you are one of the least amusing.
YOU ARE A PEDANT. GET THE HELL OVER YOURSELF.
Observations made from your posts: you're not as clever as you think you are, you're overly aggressive, you are even more obsessed with winning arguments than me (which is just bloody ridiculous, really), you seem to take great pleasure in taking the piss out of anyone who can't stand up for their self, and you're a total shit-stirrer.
There we go, I'm laughing now.

First of all:
You are hated by quite few people on this forum. Why would that be?
You are racist, sexist, a sucky elitist, whose arguments lack thought, and originality. You also make a big deal out of biting someone's cheek off in order to look ' well ard made! '

Black, White, purple, green, furry or scaly a vampire is a vampire... is a vampire. Your opinion on whether blacks make good vampires is just that, your opinion. I don't agree with it, just like I don't agree that Blade was "shit"... I am somewhat bias in my opinion because coming from a comicbook background I find it very exciting to see a comicbook story hit the silver screen.
Well here again we find the timeless struggle among human beings... opinions are like ass holes, eveyone has one, they all stink accept mine... Hence all the conflicts around the world. Our increased ability to spread our "Opinions" has also increased the spread of conflict.

Is the Blade comic any good? I liked the first movie (second one was ooookay-ish, third one I hated with a passion).

And, with one post, he proves every accusation made against him by myself to be correct.

How does it prove you to be correct exactly?
I think it proves that you're no match for me - and never will be.
You can try and bluff your way out of it, but there will always be people such as myself throwing bricks at you from afar till you grow stronger.

It's a great comic. I've got a copy from '76 or '78 myself.

Ooh, burn.
Sir Helpmann, I have never attempted to argue with you before now. I just think you're a prick. And you just proved yourself to be one.
I don't really care about whether or not I'm a match for you in argument, I'm just glad I'm not such a fucking asshole.

I've got a feeling that the quote was from a certain overrated '80s-'90s rockstar.

Its Marvel, right? So it probably has a few seperate series, any in particular that I should check out?
I'm not into a whole lot of Western comics, just Moore graphic novels and Maus really, don't like how there's a million different versions and crossovers.

My copy... I think it's called "Tomb of Dracula" or something. Also has a Vampire Detective named "Hannibal King" who only drinks the blood of the already dead.
And, yeah. Marvel.

Not true.
A few years ago I watched an incredibly under-rated short film, about vampires, set in Africa. It went for about forty minutes, and the characters were believable, they weren't "ghetto", they didn't have any terribly-done accents, and they weren't stereotyped.
I wish I remembered the title.

Any name for this film? Who directed it? Where can it be found?

I saw one that fit your description, save for the running time. It was "Pure Blood". Not awful, not awesome.
