News / 14 year old rape victim from Warsaw denied abortion! [348]


See? You treat it like a personal battle for "unborn childs life" while the only thing I want is to get the priests and right-wing fanatics like "Fronda" readers away from that girl. Everything is up to her right now and HER decision will be good.


I don't know if that is your stupidity or not, but I will point out which Hipocratic Oath fragment was broken:


Ps. As you are "pro-life" activist who only registered here to post your opinions on that girls life I would like to ask you a question. Why catholic priests don't bless miscarried children and they don't allow their funeral and why does catholic church law states, that a child under the age of 7 has no "thinking"?

At the moment "Agata" signed agreement to perform abortion. Prosecutors allowed her to do so. Hospital doctors, "pro-life" activists and that priest should be charged with harrasment, and the doctor with breaking the Hippocratic Oath. So the case should be closed now. "Pro-life" activists can scream as loud as they want, but everything is up to that girl now. Of course they will still try to stop her, but I hope that they'll be charged for that.

Any sexual act with a child under 15yr is considered as rape in Poland. "Agata" said, that she was indeed raped. Prosecutors already decided, that she can go and do abortion.

Let's focus on other aspects now. On the ultra right-wing "Fronda" forums someone posted "Agata's" real name along with cellphone number. "Newsweek" quotes her saying that she is getting rude SMS and she is visited by a catholic priest all the time. I hope that prosecutors will charge that person who posted her details.

Let's make one thing clear, as cust1240 is saying that Agata is "forced to abort". I don't believe any of the right-wing/catholic sources like "Ozon" or "Fronda" so my knowledge is based on INTERVIEW with Agata herself. She says, that she wants to abort. Let's see: she is separated from her mother, she is FORCED to not abort by priests and right-wing fanatics and still she says, that she wants to abort. Who forces her to abort? Invisible gnomes, jews or masonic order?

Yeah. So why does she still wants to do abortion?

Excatly! Now you get it! I am so proud of you. Charge the priest and all of the "pro-life" activists who were breaking the law by violating freedom of that poor girl.

Work / How much does a WEBDESIGNER earn in a month at a normal company in Poland [10]

It depends on your portfolio, known techniques etc. I've been working with a Brazilian guy who didn't know Polish (beside "dzien dobry" and "do widzenia") so it shouldn't be a problem as most of the "web people" are speaking English (one of the requirements in every agency is the ability of reading manuals in English). Also, the salaries I gave you are standard $ in Krakow. It would be ~1000zl more in Warsaw.

So, if your portfolio is long, you should be able to get ~2500-4000 for a start based on your experience and the city.

This is BS. In reality starter is going to earn 1500-2000 top. For example: DreamLab Onet.pl (the biggest polish portal) pays their starters about 2000 PLN. If you are not doing freelance stuff beside your normal work, then don't except your salary to be twice as big as you listed above.

Life / Polish products for sensitive skin, are they available in Poland? [17]

You can buy Johnson&Johnson products in all big cosmetic stores. I know that Rossman shops are quite popular now as they offer wide range of cosmetic products. There are 12 Rossman shops in Lodz so you shouldn't have any problem with finding them. I wouldn't recommend products from Tesco unless they are not "Tesco Value".

Nope. It's in a remote area, some 50 km from the center and the only way to get there is to ride a horse while singing polish anthem. Sorry :(

Language / Polish letters Alt-codes... Anyone? [60]

hold alt and press 0156 on your numeric keyboard

Also, pressing ctrl is only needed when you hold left alt. If you press right alt, you don't have to use ctrl.

So, right alt + s should give you nice ś if you have polish keyboard layout installed. Make sure you use Polish (programmers) layout and not Polish 214.
