UK, Ireland / Muslim man abuses and threatens Polish woman in the UK [49]

I have no problem with anybody's beliefs.

So you're happy with muslims' intolerance of women's rights, homoesexuals, jews, non-muslims etc ?

However, when other people try to force their beliefs onto other people

Ever taken a trip to Tower Hamlets ?

I get what you're saying about Catholics in Poland pressuring Polish society and culture but don't allow your anti-Catholicism to open the door to mass muslim immigration as that is not the antidote.

It's one thing seeing a friendly muslim face serving you a kebab on a Friday night it's quite another when you are living next to a muslim community. Even you Harry wouldn't be happy about it.

UK, Ireland / Muslim man abuses and threatens Polish woman in the UK [49]

@Atch

Harry and his clowns won't believe me but I actually have nothing against immigration. I'm a second generation Pole myself so I know from my parents how hard it was to start a new life in a foreign country.

what I have a problem with is lack of integration and the passive creep of Islamification. If muslims change the way they adapt to a new country then let's welcome them to Poland but as things are currently then Poland should lock the doors

You talk about seeing dark coloured people like it's a novelty. Over here it is normal and in many places the non-muslims are the exception

UK, Ireland / Muslim man abuses and threatens Polish woman in the UK [49]

From nearly 6 months ago.

You disapprove of me posting a story from 6 months ago yet in the last few moments you post a story about a Pole who burnt his head with an iron...the article was written in 2012. Hypocrite. Mods please get a grip or ban me now.

Polonia / Reckless Polish Man starts wildfire in Montenegro [48]

The fact that it was a Pole that threatened Montenegro's Adriatic Coast

Wow-love the dramatic use of language.

You make it sound like he was a one-man army. I am glad that Montenegro survived this dangerous Polish thread :)

UK, Ireland / Muslim man abuses and threatens Polish woman in the UK [49]

in the unlikely event you ever visit Poland

<yawn> so tiresome Harry. I have visited Poland many many times but keep repeating your BS accusations and I will keep batting them away.

In fairness to Spiritus I don't think he's really a bigot

Well I'm not a racist. I was on the verge of settling for the label of "bigot" until I read it's definition and decided that the definition doesn't really apply to me either. I can't even say I am prejudiced as that suggests I am pre-judging when in fact my beliefs are based on fact, reality, observation and experience (four things that Harry cannot claim to have as he's never lived alongside a sizeable muslim communtity).So I am a REALIST.

I have broad shoulders so Harry can call me anything he likes (the mods seem happy to tolerate him).

And I am not "panicky about being overrun by Muslim hordes" as I live in a northern British town and I have seen what YOUR future looks like. I am worried that Poland may not understand what might happen if lessons aren't learnt which is why I try to add some balance to the propaganda spouted by Harry and his mob on here.

Atch, do you find it a paradox that text-book liberals like Harry are fast to call people bigots for criticising Islam yet Islam is one of the most intolerant religions on this planet as can be demonstrated by their beliefs about women, homosexuals, jews, non-muslims ?

Polonia / Reckless Polish Man starts wildfire in Montenegro [48]

@Atch

I think there is a fine line between writing about "Polish related matters" and then tagging every single Pole who's been involved in some crime and appears on Google.

Personally, I cannot see the use of posting about a Polish man who started a fire in Montenegro BUT if we choose to accept this then I am also free to post articles where other Poles have been involved in other parts of the world. The problem Atch is that when I start doing that then you seem to take some kind of issue with it.

Can I ask you a question ? Do you not think that certain members on here seem to spend most of their time posting negative stories about Poles under the guise that it's newsworthy and relevant because a Pole was involved ?

Poles are not always the perpetrators-sometimes they are the victims and sometimes (hard for some of you to believe) they even do good things for other people (shock horror)

Polonia / Reckless Polish Man starts wildfire in Montenegro [48]

In a forum about Brits in Australia, that would be highly appropriate.

@Atch

To allow posts about Polish related matters in UK and Ireland ? doh !

Where do we have a section about the Polish community in Montenegro ?

Polonia / Reckless Polish Man starts wildfire in Montenegro [48]

I don't see that at all. Remember the topic of this forum.

Yes-"The BEST guide to Poland".

I don't see how writing about what a Pole does in another part of the world helps as a guide to Poland. However, the mods clearly allow it so I will start looking for news stories too.

If I wanted to write a guide about England then adding an article about an English guy in Australia who murdered his family wouldn't really be relevant would it ?

Polonia / Reckless Polish Man starts wildfire in Montenegro [48]

Still very hard to know why he would do such a reckless thing

Because stupid people do stupid things.Do Poles commit crimes ? Do Poles do stupid things ? Yes but it should not be implied or inferred that this is a "Polish" problem which some members are trying to say.

A Polish man starts a fire........and ?

UK, Ireland / Muslim man abuses and threatens Polish woman in the UK [49]

@WhirlwindTobias

Hi Tobias.I posted this article to try and balance the unchecked anti-Polish propaganda that has affected this forum lately.

Some members on here seem to have set up Google news alerts that notify them whenever a Pole is mentioned in the news-they then choose to post only the negative stories.

Although the article is a few months old it hasn't been discussed on here previously hence my reason for deciding to post it.

Polonia / Reckless Polish Man starts wildfire in Montenegro [48]

why not just have one thread for misbehaving Poles in the UK and muslims struggling with European cultural norms ?

Good idea.

The only reason I post half the time is to try and balance the overt negativity posted by other members.

I can only deduce that the forum owners are happy for the board to operate in this manner :(

That video shows nothing about Poland

If the board allows other members to post articles about Poles who are mentioned in the news then this article is equally as relevant. The only difference is that this article doesn't paint a negative view of Poles-funny that you take issue with this post eh ?

and so shows nothing about the ever increasing number of Muslims who are moving to Poland.

Is this a fact from Harry-land or can you back up it with a reputable source ? Thought not so we'll choose to ignore this claim :)

Poland has got more than enough racists already,

As opposed to someone who lives in Poland yet hates the country and it's people. I'm not racist anyway-Islam isn't a race just as Christianity isn't.

UK, Ireland / Muslim man abuses and threatens Polish woman in the UK [49]

As indeed has your post. This is a road rage incident between a Muslim and a white person who could be any nationality.

So you're happy to turn a blind eye to posts started by certain other individuals on this board who repeatedly pick negative news stories from the net about Poles being involved in one crime or another yet the first time I do it AND it happens to be a Pole on the receiving end then you take issue with it.......interesting.

It's clearly a racist rant against a non-muslim whether the muslim guy knew the couple were Polish or whether he was having a rant about the fact that they were white..it's still racist.

The woman doesn't appear to be shielded at all by her partner although you clearly see what you want to see.

Polonia / Reckless Polish Man starts wildfire in Montenegro [48]

Far more awful than what happened to the Polish couple in Rimini!

What happened to the Polish couple in Rimini was truly awful. An innocent couple trying to enjoy their holiday and end up being subjected to a sexual and violent assault. By all accounts the perpetrators were illegal immigrants.....

UK, Ireland / Muslim man abuses and threatens Polish woman in the UK [49]

Perhaps you should visit Poland before making claims about it which are very clearly contradicted by reality.

The reality is in the video so nothing has been contradicted. Oh yes, I forgot, If Harry declared something false then it is thereby false....welcome to Harry's universe..............

One good thing about video is that it's harder to disguise any bias. The video speaks for itself unless you want to claim that the people involved are actors

Show me some posts where I have displayed vile racism.

Your hypocrisy knows no limits Harry as your sole agenda on this forum is to paint Poles in a poor light-how do we know that your name isn't Klaus or Mohammed or Vladimir and you haven't just inflitratred this forum to destabilise Poland :)

I have visited Poland many times as previously said. Perhaps you should prove how many brain cells you have before making unfounded accusations about fellow forum members.

Their nationalities/religions are not the issue

I'm afraid you are wrong. The Muslim man is clearly heard referring to the Polish guy as "pork eaters" or words to that effect. This is not a simple road rage issue. Why are you banging on about an issue at Asda that has nothing to do with Poland or Poles ? Are you also trying to side track forum posts like Harry and his crew ?

Disgusting behaviour. Thankfully, Poland remains an unattractive place for Muslims to settle in large numbers and long may it continue.

UK, Ireland / 31 year old Polish man causes accident under influence of alcohol and kills 8 [198]

So once again your are completely biased against the accused only because he is Polish

I'd say your statement is a pretty accurate description of Jon and his friends on this forum.

Sometimes I seriously wonder if they're not tolerated by the board as they stimulate debate.......

Travel / Winter clothing for Poland (Gdansk) [11]

he shopping malls round Gdansk are pretty good

Yes ! I'm amazed at the sheer number of large scale malls around Tri-City.

Designer clothes are not cheap in Poland (or even cheaper) so don't expect to pick up a bargain but as others have said there are some great brands that are not always readily available in your own country.

PS Massimo Dutti is a great brand :)

Of course, it also happens the other way around where Poles are also subjected to despicable people.

A vile example of Muslims using Poles as slaves. The criminal in question is Muslim.

News / The real Poland honoured Uprising at patriotic sing-song [34]

I watched it this evening and also last year and I am not ashamed to admit that it brought tears to my eyes.

In the reaƂ, patriotic Poland there is no place for "ulica, zagranica

In the "real, patriotic Poland" there is no place for partisan politics. For YOU, Polonius, to politicise an event to commemorate the people who sacrificed their lives for a free Poland is very low.

I couldn't give a rat's arse who organised it and nor should you.

Some of the survivors from the Uprising may be staunch PO supporters-does that stop them from being a "real" Pole ?
