First, anytime we bring up race - we acknowledge differences and people get offended. So, if you don't find the topic worthy, you shouldn't be here. Anything we focus on grows. The things we ignore diminish. Try to look beyond skin color, hair color, languages and see that we are all of very similiar ideologies regardless of our heritage. We all want what's best. Each of us - makes ALL of US. If you weren't here, we wouldn't ALL be here.
My observation is that in any community you will find discrimination. Those who are burdened with the most discrimination often become the stronger race/creed. If you look at USA boxing you will see a trend wherein their was a period when the Italians were the best boxers, then the irish, the african. Now, the pendelum has shifted to a new realm of fighters with the introduction of the UFC and Pride fighting. The most well rounded fighters were from Japan, then Brazil, now it's a mixture of all countries.
If you take footbal for example. You will find that the Offensive linemen are usually big men of Eastern European decent(Poles,Russian,Austrian...etc). Genetics is a factor. However, we all evolve. So, it is possible that each "tribe" evolves in different directions. Speed for hunters. Intelligence for invention and problem solving. Strength for harsh circumstances....etc.
Racism is ugly. However, it has forced the oppressed peoples to become stronger and more resiliant. Poles are, in my opinion, very strong and very resiliant. Not necessarily better. But, we have evolved as well from serfs and servants to capitalists and creators.
Why ? A Negro is running still the most important country in the world.
Comparing Poles to Blacks in a deragatory sense is whats insulting. If you want to call Poles the plague of Europe you should think again. Alot of middle easterns are taking over Europe and thats a fact.
Obama will be running the country in the sense of carrying out operations passed down from above.
Correct...Obama is a messenger boy and a mannequin placed in the front window...He will move his lips occassionally...He will also impress a brainwashed segment of Europe...In the US, his controllers are already bringing pressure on him in regards to a scandal involving the Illinois governor, and some money that changed hands under the table.
He's gonna be set up in all manner of ways. He has such vision but it's a crying shame that he's not gonna get to realise it. The powers that be will see to that.

I don't agree with the statement that poles are the blacks of Europe because it's one of those blanket statements uttered to cause distress.
What's depressing is that it causes distress. What's wrong with a darker person? Nothing at all.

I totally agree...it's a racist and hateful statement to be quite honest...by making a negative connotation and referring it to Blacks.
Really? Ive seen many movies and music videos where blacks were calling themselfs 'niggers' and their girls 'hos' or 'bitches' so from my perspective 'nigger' is a regular english word to describe a black person. Blacks have no respect to their own people so they shouldnt mind if we call them 'niggers'. If someone think that only blacks can use the word 'nigger' he's a bloody racist. So me, as a very tolerant person on my quest against racism im going to keep using the word 'nigger' just like my black brothers do. :)
No one says that it's right at all. It's only ignorant people who have that word whether black or white in their Repertoire. It's derogatory either way it goes.
Poles are not the Blacks of Europe. Thats kind of insulting for you to say that.
sorry. no offense meant. what I am simply trying to imply is.. matter of fact just let me drop this subject. lol
Poles are in no way simillar to blacks. and just so everyone knows , I'm not talking about color. I'm talking about the context of the culture. "white" as in the white cast stereotype of white people and "black " as in black culture. Skin color is nothing in mymind.
I read faces for a hobby. You can tell a criminal from the way he moves and looks. And thats what I really look at not skin.
Adrian, but even the reference to culture shows a bias. Don't believe in what the media says or rather makes up about black culture. What is seen in rap videos etc, is only a small fraction of the culture. Many whites especially Southerners won't admit it, but blacks are the closest minority to their own based on the simple fact...blacks have no home culture of reference. They do not speak their native tongue, know their native customs, etc and even more than that...most blacks in America have some white ancestory in their blood. Let me give you an example...look at a black person who was born and raised in America and look at an African from Africa. An American Black normally is not as dark nor or their features as prominent because they have some type of caucasian ancestory mixed in.
To even ask the question if "are Poles the Blacks of Europe?" totally shows the mindset and thought that being associated with that culture or color is a bad thing. It's not a good thing to say.
ya there is alot of polish criminals and all that, but so what? saying poles are the "new blacks" is retarded. you can say poles are looked upon as criminals or something, not all blacks are bad.
Christ. Think I'll have to leave my boyfriend. How the hell I'm I going to survive among these people. oh I'm Jamaican he's Pole. I'm bloody 36 yrs Took me forever to find him. I'm screwed.
