Food / Why carp for Polish Christmas? [157]
All carp bashers, you are deeply biased because you probably tried the fish from polluted rivers or lakes in your own countries and you imagine Polish carp is equally bad.
You are wrong. Polish carp is much better than the fish in your polluted countries.
Actually, it is the same price as salmon in Polish shops.
If I have a choice, I always choose carp, though salmon is OK too.
Carp Jewish style is delicious:
True Poles are proud of their carp!:

I hope they keep me here for a while. The director needs me because I am the only person who speaks and writes some English here. He asked me to create a website for the prison, with an English version. And I teach him English when nobody sees.

Hmm....

But Prussia was not some black dictatorship and people COULD slug it out at a court instead of just being killed or kidnapped into a labor camp...they HAD rights!
Hmm....
What about Września case where Polish kids were beaten by sadistic German teachers???? It was an outrageous act of brutal violence.
Września is known in Poland for a school strike by Polish children in May 1901 in response to the intensification of Germanization (i.e. prohibition of the Polish language at school). The Polish language had long been tolerated in the schools, so the introduction of German as mandatory language led to protests. The controversy led to drawn-out protests between parents and authorities. For refusing to speak German, Polish children were severely beaten by Prussian teachers for several hours. Parents who tried to break into the school and protect their children from Prussian teachers were punished later by a Prussian court [...]
