Life / I feel the gay rights movement is constrained Poland [90]

Although there have been some improvements in gay rights, I feel because the gay rights movement is constrained by the Catholic Church

and this surprises you somehow? hmm

should the people be able to live in a country in which their beliefs are reflected?

there is your solution.

Food / No Curry in Tri-city area...damnit. [8]

polish restaurants around the world are always hit or miss. haven't been to one that wasn't that way. even here in the US, there are times when half the food the manu is unavailable.

Language / (part 2) Polish Language Pronunciation - Sample Words and Phrases [311]

All W in "Warszawie" and "Częstochowie" sound like "v".

yup

t also sounds like "f" in endings like -ów (like in Kraków)

not really but yes, for the most part

w Częstochowie sounds like fczęstochowie.

that's not really right. w preceeeding a word is hard v.

Feedback / CLOSING THE TRANSLATION THREADS [55]

intentionally? hmm really haven't seen too many of those and the only ones i have seen were a total joke as the person asking for translation was asking some wierd thing to be translated.

i say we ban honestjohn as that's a personal uncalled for attack and has nothing to do with this thread.

closing translation threads seems like a bad idea to me.

USA, Canada / Emergency Visa to US [4]

yes, most definitely they can get you one. they can't themselves approve such a thing but they can make it happen. in real emergency i know my senators would. you never hear of such things but they do a lot of 'favors' for the constituency.

have you ever written your senator? they actually read their mail! yeah, i was surprised too. :)

the best thing you can do is let your senator or rep know. they will help if you're nice.

UK, Ireland / New British Based Points System [30]

I don't talk to them because I quite frankly don't like them. It's not two-faced. It's a refusal to associate with muslims and Africans. It's not the colour of the skin.. it's much more than that.

right, you're just a racis bigot.

The majority have a lack of respect. They have the NWA. As for muslims their culture is incompatible with out culture and if they don't get their way you'll know about it. They feel superior to non-muslims. They don't integrate, they don't even care for the country! I'm against multi-culturalism.

you have no respect either, it would seem. and you think you're superior to muslims and africans so you are a RACIST BIGOT, like i said. and maybe you also bring rudeness and whatever other issues you seen with 'them' all up on yourself because of your small mind a rude behaviour. hmmm

that's a shame asg as you sound like a baffoon who brits shouldn't be proud of.

I don't need to sit any test. I'm British, I was born here. I automatically qualify as a British citizen.

no, it doesn't. People who score high and are admited to Canada has to prove that they know the language, have some relatives and are educated.

that's not true.. you don't have to have family to qualify for canadian immigration/work but it surely helps. the ca$h requirement is there for that. it also vastly helps to already have a job lined up.

UK, Ireland / New British Based Points System [30]

These are being introduced..so I have no idea about what you mean by dubious

i'm pretty sure this was in reference to the link i provided which to me is a paralell to the points system.

I've always said that Great Britain is "great" because we take the best...and leave what we don't want. Seems to follow that logic.

lol.. USA is great because everyone (almost) is welcome here.

sieg heil

seems rather a big step back from the idea of "union." canada has one of these also and it seems to work for them just fine. however, i am not sure if it is a good idea in a supposedly open EU. i think the spot fines for hiring illegals is a great idea which would really solve the illegal immigration issue in the USA but i doubt it will ever be implemented in that way.

if this exact point system was implemented by all of EU members then that may work but i think this will lead to some diplomatic issues. we'll see.
