Mike, Admin specifically asked posters to be truthful, rounded and candid in their postings. Part of that means stating the bad aspects as well as the good ones. I love my Polish family, much of the food here, the fact that many people leave you alone, lovely architecture and so much more. However, life is not all about tinted glasses. We are born to experience and share with others. Why paint a wrong picture through just seeing what you want to see? You might be doing people a disservice in so doing. Know where posters are coming from and their likely expectations.
Mods, I'd even suggest a warning for this guy's harsh rhetoric and inflammatory stance. People are free to voice their opinion and Poles, of all people, should know what it's like to have freedoms removed. It is vital that people can speak out through constructive criticism and painting as clear a picture as they can.
It is important to have respect for your host country, esp when some go out of their way to make your stay a fruitful and comfortable one. However, I clearly get the impression that valpomike is having a laugh and I find his style offensive. Lucky for him I'm tolerant but if he persists with his insistence on a one-sided view of Poland, I recommend stern action when the right time comes.
Mike, how about some specifics rather than loose rhetorical garbage? Where do you live in Poland for starters?
