News / Poland's overall view on the US? [38]

No USA = No Freedom........end of...regardless of what has gone on since............only for them........Poland would either be German or Russian......for the next 100/200/300 yrs.....then disappear....for ever

Sure they pursue their on interests needs, who doesn't!!

Yes they done some less that pleasant things...all great powers do......but they weren't going to deprive you of all your rights liberties and aspirations.....unlike your next door and great neighbours!

Love / Are Polish women in serious demand by Western men? [43]

are they actually in serious demand by western men? or the guys wanting them are just a few select fanboys?

Not sure...perhaps its the newness/difference of Polish womanhood that guys find attractive.........I suppose its the same for Polish women in Poland, if they meet a foreigner.......we are all inquisitve, like new/different things....called being human.....!

News / I need Kaczynski's Email Address! [84]

I am in no way pro-unionist,

Shawn.........am afraid frequently you will only find its a union who takes on this company...I don't know if Lidl is another "union no-go" company, but if they are, its typical of the SH!T that they think they can get away with.........another place who sees their workers are pawns/moveable pieces of meat to use and abuse.

In Europe and its mostly socialist attitudes .......unions have played a major part in framing worker friendly laws and keepng the excesses of employers in check.......

So some middle ranking manager came up with an idea.......in a complete vacuum of thought, understanding, common sense and obeying the laws of the land/EU.

Thereby humiliates womanhood...........

Lidl....should hereby be boycotted....P19 I hope you are up for it!!

Life / Poverty in Poland [50]

Miranda......its more to do with poverty of thought, opportunity, attitude and lack of risk taking..........

Poland is rich in many important things....mostly family, social and history..........

1980s Ireland.......employment around 18/19%...big national debt.....people leaving every year......40/50/60,000 from a small country...little or no big investments.....

Things will turn around for Poland.......but you need a few good people at the top and self belief in your younger people..........plus start taking a few risks!!!

UK, Ireland / POINTS SYSTEM BEING INTRODUCED NEXT YEAR IN THE UK [25]

Frank, to be fee is one thing, but in England (a small Island) life is but that, schools are taking in around 30 student that have no English each term which finally the government has decided is a problem at least 3 teachers plus support staff have to be allocated and if these kids come from families that are not shall we say giving back to the coffers then its a strain - and I actually welcome the changes - there will still be an exchange of people from around the world but it will benefit England and if that sounds selfish, then I am selfish.

Selfish....selfish?????...nnnnnnnoooooooooooooooooo

Me thinks the vast majority of children here, whose parents are working( contributing, paying taxes, not breaking the law) then they are entitled to be treated according too their needs.....

In our little corner of the world, English is the main language, 2ndly Irish is taught in a few exclusively irish schools and even a 3rd dialect is recognised Ulster-scots both on official documents, signs etc......

Things a really changing..........being a little Englander...just won't wash A.....:)

Language / "Whatever" used as slang - Polish equivalent? [29]

I think guys that the point has been missed......as in ANY communication.........its not what you say but how you say it.........

Typically experts reckon that communication is 80 % body language......rythym, intonation and way that you deliver said words make up another 15%......only 5% of the value of communication is actually made up of the words themselves..........soooooooooo....

USA, Canada / Shootings in America; over 30 people shot [52]

He's only been in the US since 92. So, still Korean...to me anyway.

Which means he came to the USA as an 8 year old....at an age when you are most impressionable/want to fit in........so by now well steeped in the American ways......to me...he would sound/act/be a USA national.

He decided to mimic the previous gun disasters which now are an irregular but all too common event in American life.

SG...I sincerely hope not........its merely a default position for those bereft of an argument or indeed the lazy and indolent.....:)

My 2 cents worth....

USA, Canada / Shootings in America; over 30 people shot [52]

Two hundred years ago...it displays a lack of maturity as a nation and a deep distrust of its government and those who hold office that they believe there is a need to carry/own a gun....indeed, it just goes to show how criminal/brutal areas of the USA are..........that everything has to be settled by blood shed or the ultimate sanction......very worrying.

USA, Canada / Shootings in America; over 30 people shot [52]

And it seems to be happening more and more in schools.

Typically..the most "dangerous" unstable time of a persons life.......unless they have a mental health problem....

The NRA of the USA has its own finger on the trigger when this happens

USA, Canada / Shootings in America; over 30 people shot [52]

Doubtless they will wheel out the phrase that they hope they haven't died in vain......but we all know they will have.

The feebled minded, inept, inane and those of less than good intentions will continue to have access to these weapons........

The USA public seem content to accept these mass murders as a price worth paying so they can swagger around....being their own individual sheriffs.....laughable....and profoundly sad.

USA, Canada / Shootings in America; over 30 people shot [52]

The murder rate in the USA is 20k pa Amathyst..........90% + by gun...in UK......7-800....only.......mostly by gun too.

Its not the gun thats crazy...but those who use them......its a sad reflection of a society that they believe the need to have the right to bear arms!
