Welcome to Poland ! (Stay away for your own sake) [239]
Calling a black "an ape" or a gay "a sausage" or throwing bananas to a black or making fun of a handicapped journalist itd... may look like "fun" to PF's racists but all this has NOTHING to do with "freedom" and has no place in any civilized society. A civilized society must protect all their citizens as well as visitors and must offer respect and dignity to ALL. No one is superior or inferior because of the color of their skin, the shape of their nose or the texture of their hair...
This morning on the tram, I was sitting just behind a nun and should I follow the rules of some of you racist guys, as an atheist, I should have insulted her or she should have insulted her. I personally know several gays in Poland who at least 1 or 2 times a week as insulted by homophobic comments. Is it NORMAL???? Maybe to you but for someone like me who have been raised in a democratic and civilized society, it is NOT. People are different but they have to live with each other in an intelligent manner and those not accepting the rules are to be punished. Fortunately, Western Europe has strong democratic values and has laws against racists. Since Poland and consorts want to belong to EU in order to get hundreds of billions of Euros (what other reason????), it would be common sense to expect Poland and consorts to respect Western European democratic values. Yes, racism, xenophobia, antisemitism, homophobia are punished by fines and even jail sentences and it is most fortunate because "racism is not an opinion, it's a crime".
Except for the Britons and I, everybody else is full of racism, xenophobia, antisemitism, homophobia and it is sickening. Keep writing your insults and your hatred, you contribute to the already very bad reputation Poland has. There are of course a lot of very nice and decent people in Poland but we should hear/read them instead of hearing and hearing only the scum. You are so miserable in your life, no education, no job or lousy job with no money and no future, living in a slum in a lousy place so you are most frustrated and as a result instead of working on your failure in order to improve your crappy life, you are mad at the whole world and need to find scapegoats and since you have NO balls, you prefer to bother minorities. You are the lowest of the very lowest. Racists are uneducated, stupid, ugly, frustrated and have no balls. Thank you to conttinue giving Poland a very bad reputation. What do you do for Poland? Nothing! You don't even live in Poland and don't pay tax to Poland. We foreigners contribute much more to Polish economy than you would ever.
@José: your story is very sad and I wish you to get the he///ll out of Poland as soon as you can. What kind of university are you attending? If a private school, forget it, your diploma won't be worth anything. I understand that you are in Wroclaw, if you happen to visit Warsaw, do give me a signal and I'll invite you for a meal. You've been suffering so much that I really feel sorry (but I am not surprised). Now, you know Poland and the mentality of MOST Poles all the more as you've got quite a "nice" sample in PF. Fortunately a lot of them don't live in Poland, and sometimes have never set a foot in Poland and of course you've met Levy, who is a special case himself, not living in Poland, never set a foot in W. Europe but he .... knows better than people from here/there. Well, you have read and you know... Please try to relax (I know not so easy) and stick to foreign people. You speak English, + I suppose French besides your native Arabic so you can meet a lot of nationalities and make great friends. Chin up! Prends soin de toi! :)
