History / Have Poles blood on their hands? :) [496]

The gist of the above:

In 1942, 300 volunteered, 200 were selected, most deserted, several joined other SS units. Thus, a complete failure so we don't even have a unit patch or realy nothing to show for it :)

History / Have Poles blood on their hands? :) [496]

There was never a try to form a polish Waffen-SS,

There was.

Goralischer Waffen SS Legion [edytuj]
Fiaskiem skończyła się też próba zorganizowania w drugiej połowie 1942 jednostki Goralischer Waffen SS Legion. Zgłosiło się około 300 osób, z których wytypowano 200 zdolnych do służby wojskowej. Do obozu szkoleniowego w Trawnikach trafiło około 200 ochotników. Popadli oni w konflikt ze stacjonującymi tam Ukraińcami. Większość zdezerterowała, a resztę wywieziono na roboty przymusowe w głąb Niemiec – do SS trafiło kilku spośród ochotników.

He is full of it. The German's attempt to form a Polish Waffen SS unit failed miserably. Harry's knowledge is limited what he can read on Wikipedia. I wouldn't worry too much about him. He manipulates facts and when you engage him he changes the focus, a rather weak opponent. Hi, Harry.

Harry was talking about the British Frei Corps - Waffen SS

...and there were 59. He is relying on wiki which is incorrect.

But Greg seems to think that no Jews lost property as a result of the holocaust, and that there's no justification for a surviving Jew to reclaim his property.

Jews and Poles lost property during and after the war. They can recover it in some cases. It is a nighmare to do so, but possible. When I did, no one asked me if I were Polish, Jewish, Uki, or German, but rather did I have the documents to prove my case. In the case of Polish Jews, the situation is more complex as they were subject to extermination and whole families were murdered, and if there are some descendants, they lack documents. If they have them or they can find them in official offices, they can try to recover property. It really has nothing to do with ethnicity of the person.

One important point though. There has been a recent push from Jewish organizations to claim lost property with no descendants. They claim that it belongs to Jews in general and they want money to go to some general fund, mainly those organizations. I don't have to ask you what you think of that as I think I know you just a little bit.

News / German legal discrimination against Polish speakers [209]

BB,

If you read my previous posts, you will see this was mentioned. I pose a couple of questions about the control and no one answered. Can you google this guy in your press?

Sleepy.

That's all I wanted to show you.

Maybe this story will continue and we will have more info. I don't speak German so I can't search what German papers said about it. It appears that they want to control what he talks about with his kids though, and that's what I would object to. He works with children, I think, so it can't be that he is a deviant. He might be using the Polish angle for a different issue involved. However, there are other nationals with the same problem, so maybe it is the social services are throwing their weight around in an illegal manner.

Supervised visits are demening and often result of the woman's lies. This is common in all countries.

I realize that you only see what you want to see.

No, I saw the site you linked to which claimed there is a problem with parents and children in Poland and Germany. He only focused on Poland though since it affected him personally. Your reply was unconnected with this discussion so I ignored it. He wanted me to sign a petition to President...Bush.

News / German legal discrimination against Polish speakers [209]

But, enough of that, your interest in my personal life is a bit creepy. Stalk much?

You are a ninny, after all. My interest in you is zilch. It is you who advertizes what you do and where you live. I happened to work in that area for many years and I did have a good time there, but I was talking about the social services in Brevard County in some relation to this topic. Stalking you? Since you just joined this forum, you don't know that I live in Poland and you live in Florida. See the poster above your post, he is your speed.

You didn't address anything I said relating to the thread, because your argument fell apart, and you have no experience with spouces nor children, not to mention any social services.

I have not found a better place to live and work yet, and I have been looking very hard.

I'm sure living among transient rednecks is appealing to some and shopping at Wal-Mart is considered a cultural event.

So, should the Polish father's telephone conversations with his daughters be monitored by the German government and cut off if not conducted in German? Read this question outloud a few times if it helps you to understand the issue.

News / German legal discrimination against Polish speakers [209]

I was born in germany, because my parents went here 1988. i never heard polish discrimination in germany

Then as you are a teenager, you probably haven't heard of a lot of things yet, but since you are interested, read the related stories in the link the OP posted and tell what they are all about. I assume you read Polish.

What I suggested is that there usually is a reason for visits being supervised

The word you used was "obviously" which is hardly a suggestion.

it may very well be in children's best interest to monitor the gist of the crap the parent needing supervision might be feeding them.

Then you agree that all their communication should be monitored by the state. Even if you are that brainwashed to believe that, they have Polish speaking workers there and the court didn't impose this restriction, only supervised visits. Most often these are imposed on the basis of the woman lying that he will flee with the children or some other sinister lies. In fact, in this case, she left to live in Austria with the girls and if I may suggest something now, she obviously is a class A bi*ch.

This volksdeutch should have married a Polish woman and then there are good chances he would have only had a mother-in-law for a bit*h. :)

As for the caliber of people working in social services, I have not had the pleasure, so I'll defer that wisdom to you.

I happened to be very familiar with the county you live in and I just thought you might be familiar of the horror storries that social services produce there. But as you will agree, they are products of quality institutions like BCC and are only slightly dumber than the rest of the local population.

Sadly, in Poland, the number one college direction is psychology so we are trying to produce "educated" dumbos too. I see you chose a real education and that is commendable.

USA, Canada / Differences in How Polish People Raise a Child and How Americans Raise a Child [149]

However,at different stages of a childs life modifications, and adaptations have to be made,

Modifications will have to be made with ET's wife; she will wear herself out. She seems paranoid ( I mean in a good sense), but new mothers often are. It is better than neglect. Hopefuly, she will learn to relax and get good night's sleep. Doting and caring are not the same thing.

News / German legal discrimination against Polish speakers [209]

the article is about supervised visits between parent and child, in Germany.

The article is about discrimination against foreigners, ie. forcing parents to use German with their children.

Obviously, if court granted him supervised visits only, it means they need to monitor what's going on, i.e. what is he telling them as well.

The court did not impose that he communicate with his daughters in German. I hope you understand so far. The Jedentamd took upon themselves to impose this restriction. There are over 200 other similar cases from Belgian, British, American, Polish, French persons. The court now is affraid this case will swamp them with these cases and is siding with the government . You, being an unfortunate resident of Hicksville, Brevard County, should understand the caliber of people who work in these social services. Supervised visits do not mean that they must monitor the conversations between parents and children. Will they also tap his and their phone to make sure they use German only? Will they read his letters and destroy the ones not in German? His and their computer must be monitored also, right?

Travel / Warsaw | Trekking routes, Nature [6]

Welcome,

For tomorrow you can take the metro to the last stop KABATY. When you come up, you will see the TESCO supermaket. Head towards it, south, pass it on your left and keep going. Follow people and bikers heading in the southerly direction. Hike S, S-E. Get a city map at a news stand a locate Las(Forest) Kabacki.

This is just a good start for a quick walk out of the city.

For a longer and proper hiking, take a look at Kampinos National Park:

Oh, I see Lukasz got the transport figured out.

News / German legal discrimination against Polish speakers [209]

But how about Peter, is that not a real name to the Polish?

A good name at that. These rules might be old and I was surprised to see my friend's kid's name spelled Maks. I just assumed it would be Max, but I am not typical.

There should be something to prevent retarded parents from naming their kids silly names though. In the US there are kids named Dwarf, Chaos, or Virgin. Come on.

The name Lauren is very nice also, and I am surprised the guy Harry mentioned had difficulties. We got Doda though for Dorota. Some Dorotas use Dorka till they learn some English. :)

I believe that both parents are having a fight at the expense of their children, and the father is trying to succeed by pulling the racism card.

The story seems illogical. We don't have the background story to make a call. We like to rank on gerries just for sport anyway. Where is that racist bastard Bratwurst Boy?

I still think everybody should be free to pick a name for his children as long as it's an existing, person's name.

This is not America. Many European countries have similar rules. Joop is a real name to you, but not to us.

Other,

Would you like to be told what language you must speak to your kids?

News / German legal discrimination against Polish speakers [209]

And the state has no business decreeing what language parents can speak to their own children in. Period.

Absolutely. He guy should refuse to speak in German, and take this up the chain to Strassbourg. He would win.

Supervised visits are not there to control the content of the conversation. It is not prison. But if someone thinks they are, then does he get a list of approved topics, the monitor can stop the visit if she "feels" it's not going according to the prescribed, official, script?

OK, before Harry jumps in, are the social workers not trainned to observe the behavior of the kids during such visits and can they not tell if the kids are adversly affected by the conversation? They should not be even listening in, but be present at a distance.

For those of you who think, there must be a valid reason for all this, just wait till a nut case wife accusses you of sexual molestation of a child or some other sick lie. Most of these cases are revenge.

History / What British unit liberated Poland in 1945?? [445]

But if we agree that being Jewish is something which one inherits, does that make it a nationality?

I might come to you as a great surprise that I did not invent the Polish language, nor all its terminology.

I suppose you will have a problem why we call the Jewish peoples Naród Wybrany(the Chosen Nation), and not Lud Wybrany(the Chosen People)?

You will have take it up with the Cherokees also, why they call themselves the Cherokee Nation, and so forth.

Since we are on a Polish forum, yes, using English, some pedantry can be avoided when we understand what we are saying. This is not a scientific forum so ease up.

Not all Jews are religious, some/many don't believe in God, yet they are still Jewish.

On Liberty Forum, now defunct, we used to have a fairly hostile poster called Bacon Eating Atheist Jew. He still blogs somewhere, but I lost touch with him. He is proud to be Jewish and who am I take that away from him. It's a circular discussion anyway, so let's not have it, but pretend that we did.

UK, Ireland / Polish English marriage in England- advice please [21]

No my previous marriage was not a Catholic ceremony

Then you will have no problem getting married in church. This would be the case in Poland. I can't see the Church in England having different rules. Remember, the Church is not against you and wants you to be married in church. See if the local priest is friendly and will make your preparation painless. He may have good advice how to obtain your certificates of past sacraments. Stealing our women, huh? :)
