News / Is it time to tighten gun laws in Poland? [146]

With sense of satisfaction, Franek takes a break.. Departing with a big smile on his face, and an inflated ego. Checking his six shooter to see if it is loaded.

I'm a teacher, I have more licence to see both sides. I'm not affiliated to any pro or anti gun bodies.

I sure hope that you are not teaching this crap to your students. Give the kids a break. I just hope that you are teaching them that they are allowed to exercise their own thoughts.

Let me give u some stats, Dawid. Only 3% were accidents. So, from 31,000 to 29,800 per year, wow. Yes, 55% are suicides. Suicide is self murder

There you go again Seanus.. You are like a Pit Bull. You latch on to something and wont let go. You and I discussed this before. What difference does it make how you commit suicide? Be it by a gun, knife. screw driver, jumping off of a bridge or window. ( The wall street crash of 1928) We have cases here in Florida where old people commit suicide by locking themselves in a garage and breath carbon monoxide,out of desperation.

Guns dont kill people. It is the People using the gun that kill.

News / Another Case Of Intentional HIV Infections in Poland [73]

TodaysCondoms Trump Abstinence in Obama Global AIDS Policy (Update1)

By Jason Gale and John Lauerman

Nov. 10 (Bloomberg) -- President-elect Barack Obama will reverse U.S. family-planning and AIDS-prevention strategies that have long linked global funding to anti-abortion and abstinence education, a public-health adviser said.

Public-health policies of President George W. Bush's $45- billion PEPFAR program have brought AIDS drugs to almost 3 million people in poor countries such as Rwanda and Uganda, more than under any other president. Still, requirements that health workers emphasize abstinence from sex and monogamy over condom use have set back sexually transmitted disease prevention and family planning globally, said Susan F. Wood, co-chairman of Obama's advisory committee for women's health.

news. Obama's answer to the AIDS problem.

History / German POWs after WW2 - did the allies commit mass murder? [228]

HMMM.
Now this is a horse of another color..I m going to have to go back to the drawing board on this one.. ( No offense, or labels) It just upset my apple cart a little.

Ok! in one of your recent posts, you condemed firearms in the States.. From another thread that I read on here, it was stated that there is a knife culture in Glasgow,and the streets are not safe.. This sounds like an American ghetto. Since I speak with no authority, correct me if I am wrong.

Please Franek, I don't like labels or being put in a bag and marked.

That is not my intent Seanus. Actually, I like you. At least when you disagree with me, you do not use vulgar language. You respond civilally.

I do have a problem with your profile though. I am not sure just what nationality you are. I was under the impression that you were Polish.. But here recently you mentioned Scotland.. That confused me.

There ya go Seanus. See, there are some things that you and I can agree on. But Obama is not one of them. You put me in mind of the hippies from the 1960..You are so obsessed with this guy, that you think that he is the second coming of the lord.

There was another guy just like him not too long ago that had the same effect on people. Another Messiah. Jim Jones. Another half breed. People were so infatuated with him,that they committed mass suicide by drinking cyanide laced kool aid in Guyana.

Time will tell.

AHHH!
Reading these posts sorta make me laugh, and cry at the same time. No matter where ya'all are getting your information from, there is but one answer.War is Hell . Unless you are there to experience it personally, how can you tell how you would react if you were in the same situation. Some of us break down in combat. Others hold up. I was willing to kill to save my skin. I did not want to die.. This goes for our adversaries too. The individual soldier is nothing more than cannon fodder.. Our lives are expendable. In war people die.

BB Yes, Darius is a Canadian. He is originally from SE Poland. Galicia

History / German POWs after WW2 - did the allies commit mass murder? [228]

I am an American,drafted in 1944 at the age of 18. I landed at Utah beach of june 6th 1944, fought all the way to the crossing of the Rhine at Remagan.. After escaping from German Internment I made my way back to American lines where I was sent back to the US.. For me the war was over,I spent the next 14 months in various Army hospitals gettin put back together again.

Hindsight is 20/20 but don't over speculate. U can't tell me u were in Dunkirk too. Or r u just reading the various accounts that everyone else gets?

No Seanus. I was but 15 yrs old at the time of Dunkirk. I entered the service in 1944 when I was drafted. Although I do not have the education that you do, I can still read books about that battle. You seem to get all of your expertise from books and your imagination. ( OUCH )

Today, 18:50 Report #138

Well, Dawid kinda put paid to that idea above. We mobilised our units very quickly and repelled a number of attacks. The surge of invincibility petered out when resistance was stronger than expected.

What rot Seanus. It is true, the Brits defended England in the Air. But they were humiliated at Dunkirk and Dieppe.
Hitler screwed up too.. He could have destroyed England if he would have followed up at Dunkirk.

Ok Seanus. Yes I agree with you. it is the crazies from the Middle East that are causing the problem. For them they are fighting a holy war. They are fanatics with no regard for human life. Not even for their own.

Come on Seanus.. Do you really think that America is safe? Your imagination is running away with you again. America is safe? Yeah sure.. Do you for a second believe that there are no offensive terror weapons in America already? Have you ever been to America?

This is not Poland.. America is a large country with many avenues of compromising our security. We have many enemies from abroad and within our borders.. It is just a matter of time.

History / German POWs after WW2 - did the allies commit mass murder? [228]

I thought that we were discussing WW2? This subject has been blown completely out of proportion. We are now into present day conflict. The original question was.. Did the Allies commit war crimes against Germans.? I for one saw very little of it committed by the Americans, and British. Yes, there was a little. But mostly in retribution for crimes committed by the Germans against our troops The Russian conflict was something that I know nothing about.. As for the French, they were cowards. I never fought next to a Frenchman.

WW2 was a justifiable war. As much as I hate to, I have to agree with Seanus. Korea, Vietnam, Kosovo, Iraq, afghanistan, should never had happened. Since when has America been chosen to be the worlds policeman.?

I say, bring back all American troops from foreign lands an let them protect America.
Just wait until Obama sends American troops into Africa to quell the turmoil there.

the allies suffered a complete moral collapse following their triumph over evil. What do you guys know about it.

This is the biggest bunch of bull schidt that I ever saw. All of you Monday morning quarterbacks read distorted versions of what happened.
Franek was there. I spent time as an American POW in Germany in WW2. I can tell you things that would make your hair stand up. But there were the civilized things that happened.. I for one was well treated by my captors.. I received the same medical attention that the German soldier received. I was served the same rations as the German soldier did. It-is true, most were not as lucky as I was. I was lucky enough to be captured by the regular German Volkstrum. Had I been captured by an SS outfit,the outcome may have been different.

WAR is hell.. Atrocities were committed by both sides.. But we Americans were warned about committing atrocities. Yet I personally witnessed a few, DAMN FEW.

I can elaborate on a few that I personally witnessed, but it would take too long.

HMMM maybe I should write a book. I saw a lot.. I landed at Utah beach and was wounded and captured crossing the Rhine at Remagan. Oh well.. It is all history now.
