News / Demonstrations in Poland in defence of democracy. [2554]

Looks like you are the one who's lagging behind, my friend...

You are doing that again. My post is not to be read as an informative guide on the issue but as a response to somebody specific and often ridiculous claims. What is that you fail to understand? You need to read all the exchange to understand context otherwise you are simply nitpicking on my posts and then came across as somebody not quite there who is constantly lagging behind.

If you cannot be bother to keep up with the convo here why do bother to post? Is that because you read a random post and then write the first thing that comes to your mind?

Then why did you make that BS claim that the EU funds came with no strings attached

No string attached as in no way those EU founds oblige Poland to take in illegal immigrants, legalize gay 'marriages' or for the matter to listen to some EU wise dudes in the cases of the power struggle between legislative, executive and judicial powers in Poland.

Certain EU funds called "Conditional Grants'

What are you chirping about T? I'm well aware of that but if those founds are for building roads they should be used to build roads. However it doesn't give anybody right to demand from the Polish government to take in illegal immigrants or to introduce laws that are contrary to the national interest. If someone demands those things and talks about money from the EU as a payment for the total obedience in all matters he or she is a full of it!

Such a pitiful and ridiculous claims are only to be debunked in the most stern way possible and there is no place for your pedantic butting in or for 100% or whatnot.

Try to keep up T. you are constantly lagging behind in all things.

Those numbers are a bit skewed

DD it doesn't matter whether or not those numbers are skewed or not and all you pro and contra you can stick it up your pink feathery attire. The fact of the matter is that PiS is being supported by the majority of the populace and isn't going to change in a year or two.

Even if most people wouldn't support PiS or criticize PiS that wouldn't matter either contrary to your long and winding diatribes. It doesn't matter for a simple reason there is not way people would like to go back to what it was before - meaning PO, KOD, Petru stand no chance to improve its chances in an election.

Let it sink in!

Law / File complaint against Poland's police [97]

First in 2008/9 Polish properties were at peak

Nah, 2007/2008.

would've got around $350k-$400k USD.

That's highly unrealistic, you would need to get down approximately 30% to get a top end estimation.

Law / File complaint against Poland's police [97]

I don't want house prices in Poland (Currently low By European standards) to be forced up by outside speculation.

Well dolno, you must be a new arrival to Poland as this already had happened after Poland joined the EU. Right now real estate market is back to normal - almost, but at the time you could have made a killing if you surfed on the wave in the foreign spectators wake.

The next wave is only waiting around the corner for the land speulators to be given a free rein.
Obviously young people in Poland a prospective buyers were the one which stand to lose on this business. .

They are mostly worried about the Germans buying their old properties back.

Nah, in my understanding they are people buying properties - mostly land they couldn't afford in their own country. When it comes to Germans those are mostly looking for a place to live in their retirement years.

Some Dutch making the most of the agriculture lands, then some Jews and Israeli companies investing in the shopping malls in the Polish cities.

But you took the EC Euros?

Which was given freely with no string attached to level playing field between two parts of Europe. Not to buy yourselves a new slaves and new colonies. If that the case as you seem to be implying then such a contract is clearly forged and can be announced null and void!

Not if any of us normal people have anything to do with it.

That is the point Doug you and other regressive left nut jobs don't qualify to the group called a normal people. There is so much clearly wrong with you.

We were talking about Kijowski and whether or not he is a good citizen.

He is a more than anything else a chancer and a figurehead. He himself is not a very bright hippy with nothing of a value to offer.

I am saying that he is - upholding democracy and helping to bring the facts of this government's disdain for democratic law to world attention, as an individual needs to.

He is taking part in all too obvious hysterical performance by the round table establishment aimed at nullifying the result of the last democratic election which seen their kind removed from the position of power for the first time in 26 years.

For Poles have a history of doing precisely nothing in such cases, as they expect others to do their dirty washing for them.

Sunshine, that is an internal Polish affair that has nothing to do with anybody and foreigners as well as foreigner powers could do well by keeping their meddling paws to themselves. You once again confusing issues here.

Why is that you know so little and understand even less?
There is something entirely different in expecting help in overthrowing power of an occupier by the powers who claim to be liberating forces of justice or in the case of war to expect your ally to stick with you through thick and thin and observe to the T both in the letter and in the spirit signed agreement. It shouldn't been interpreted as a standing invitation for meddling into internal Polish affairs. If you can't tell one from the other you should hold you should have keep quiet.

So no dough nobody is expecting you doing a dirty job for somebody but rather that you'll stay out of it and don't play dirty tricks.

The ZOMO forces were recruited from young, angry men with little financial means

Hmm .....what kind of fantasies....no I don't want to know...gees delp ;/

Ask Poles then.

Ask Poles what? I'm asking you as you are the one who has brought forth that nonexistent connection between two very different and distant historical events.

We British wouldn't have tolerated the scum and would have smashed them.

Yes, you would in the world behind the old wardrobe or in other parallel worlds which belong to children and fiction writers. It is somehow devilishly weird in recognizing a childish or a senile sentiment in one claiming to be 58 years old or is that given by the token of one living in the fantasy land.

and fight the Soviet garrison on the streets.

That would go well, I'm sure. Other than that you celery have no notion do you?
The bold toppling of the Soviet installed people should be undertaken after 89' but by then the lie of the round table and Walesa, Michnik and & as heroes were installed and majority of the populace were fooled and nobody was any wiser and a few people who knew better were pacified on way or the other. Anyway without popular support, recognizable loud voice or whatnot they were doomed to exists on the fringes of post-commie society or to leave.

You lost me there

So what it is Dough are you only a sad troll or you are some kind of the low key operative doing your bit on the Internet social media? Somehow it is hard for me to believe that you are that stupid. Maybe it is me giving people to much credit.

If that nationalist clown Kaczynski says KOD are so

First of all he is not a nationalist, second of all it is not what he says but what I and many other people are saying.

Could that be that you are nothing but a regressive left? If so don't be talking about facts you wouldn't recognize a fact if it would bite you in your rear end.

Yeah, and most of your population let the ZOMO and Polish Army subjugate you in Martial Law.

So what a history from the years past, to be precise from 360 and some years past have to do with ZOMO and whatnot in a different era, a different country and completely differed circumstances? Nothing ( a hint).

When we are up against the wall, we fight.

Don't know what you mean but I think you are confusing a thugs life with bravery.
By the way which guest username you are using here? I'm not going to guess.

You cower

Listen being ignorant can get you only so far. I expect an apology dough or you will feel my wrath punk.
While you lot were loitering and sitting on your fat asses cutting profits off yet another won war, Poles who borne the main burnt of the war were being killed and hunted in their on country courtesy to the HMG who sold them down the river without bating an eye.

Hell they didn't go without putting a fight. Yeah but what do your know? Squat all! So when you come the next time here all high and might you better bring your own plastic bag for packing up what's left from your sorry English ass.

KOD are bunch of commies, collaborators and traitors and he himself sis just a leftie pansy who cross-dressed to get some attention to his lazy hippie and downright dumb mug. Also they know very well (better than you at lest) they don't have a popular support of the populace and there a people out there right form PiS who would love nothing better then to make a mince-meat out of them KOD-fekkers.

You are so clueless you rainbow doggie walker that it beggars belie that you are actually have under your belt a two decades of living in Poland, it could have been on the moon and nobody could tell the difference.

A Civil War like 360plus something years ago? Yes you are definitely a genius. It is a wonder that you can tell a difference between your head and your dog's tail, can you tell apart your left and right leg - wow I'm impressed if you do!

You know never mind, now run along and bay yourself a loopy pop or some other candy and say halo to your handler.

History / Old Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth Inheritance, Legitimacy, and Nobility. [8]

That is, from my understanding , that if an unmarried noblewoman had a child, her father could choose to pass his surname... and his noble status(?) onto his grandchild?

That's right.

That doesn't seem right,

Why? A noble in the old Polish Commonwealth could adopt a stranger if he wished to and pass onto him his status. He could do whatever he wanted with his property. Do you think he couldn't do this for his grandchild?

But I actually have records of that happening with people. It happened within my own family, and I have heard from others that it had happened with them

If you are talking about Commonwealth that is not possible according to the law of that period. The only way for an illegitimate child to inherit surname and status of her mother would be by the legal action undertaken by the child's grandfather.

One could say that in a way that child inherited surname and status from mother - but that is just a figure of speech not a legal reality.

Sorry for double-posting.

No problemo, I helped you to the best of my ability. Admittedly I could be wrong about all that - its possible but not probable. Sorry but I don't know any more on the subject. All the best and good luck in your research.

Perhaps! but only by the guilty party.

Guilty of what? You have some weird illogical mind.

Ignoring international law will have consequences

What law? Telling people how to run their own country is no law but a dictate and an oppression and should be debunk for what it really is - an aggression.

PIS are hugely outnumbered by defenders of rational democracy.

There are no need for adjectives nor for qualifiers either there is democracy or there isn't.

Do you have any records of this?

No, if you are looking for specific and if you need old records and some sources for your research I doubt somebody have it on hand translated into English and ready to post.

And in particular, even in cases of rape?

If you are asking for the law in the old Commonwealth there were illegitimate and legitimate children without specifics.

If a woman was raped, her child, if given her surname, would not inherit her status?

An illegitimate child would not inherit mother's surname or status, period. The only way around it was vie father of a child or father of a mother because they could legally transfer their surname and their status if that was what they wanted to do.

Here some books on the subject:

Meanwhile, the Venice Commission decision is coming, and with it - the expectations of the EU and US towards PiS.

See how they going to mage it. I would thank them for their time and then ignore it in they place.

What some odd commission has to say has no bearings and no sway in Poland and shouldn't have.

PiS is a reincarnation of the Communist Party with real religion added.

Remind us whose sock-puppet are you?

The leadership of PiS was formed by the PRL and so they're sub-consciously trying to recreate it.

Hmm.. that is an utter tripe. Please go back to fleas counting or whatnot.

By the way were is your empirical evidence? Not for numbers of fleas of course but for your pathetic attempt at expressing an opinion about something you clearly have no idea about.

Meaningless gibberish.

who gives air-time to holocaust deniers?

Believes that the right to free speech pertain to all.

Because he takes money from gullible old ladies 'to save the shipyards' and instead spends it on a Maybach for himself?

That is a lie and slander. Shame on you, you old drunkard.

Because he lies under oath?

You lie even in your sleep.

History / Old Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth Inheritance, Legitimacy, and Nobility. [8]

The question of illegitimate children of noble women in the old commonwealth legal system.

According to the law those children had no right to inherit name or nobility status from their mothers.

Now, we know historically that the illegitimate child of a polish woman, if acknowledged, would usually be baptized with her surname and raised in her father's household

Now, father could recognize an illegitimate child as his own and give him/her his own surname or part of it or another name as well as bestow his estate or part of it to him/her.

Now, we know historically that the illegitimate child of a polish woman, if acknowledged, would usually be baptized with her surname and raised in her father's household

That would be most likely due to decision made by the mother's father.

The true face of the KOD

They're a waste of time. I'm surprised you are still on it P. They're disgraceful trash being left alone too long to stink in the heap. So long that it has developed a sense of self-importance and certain delusions as to their place in life for example.

It's an undeniable fact that KOD belong in the dumpster and there no need to mice the words nor waste time on them. It is only a question of time that they will wilt and then die! A good riddance of bad rubbish I say.

No being PiS supporter I'm not in position to answer your question. I can only share my feeling and thought on the subject.
Personally those hypocrites form KOD are annoying me big time. Yet, it is not fear I would be sorely tempted to disperse them with few well aimed hand grenades. ( talking about feelings not plans of course)

I guess seeing who is participating and who is behind KOD and all that boohoo, PiS supports are annoyed as well. Seeing righty that if they were to pull stunt like that they would be branded long ago as fascist trying to overthrown democratically elected government who should b e put to jail, and undercover policemen would be working already to cause a provocation which would allowed to refuse them a right to demonstrate and so on.....

The only reason that PO, KOD, Petru and all that corrupt cliques and old coy commies and their cronies are in the good graces in the EU is the fact they joined progressivism and lefties that is dominating in Europe at the moment. Those people are supporting their own ideological brethren even though they are only opportunistic fellow travelers on the power trip.

Comrade Miller on the subject of the Cursed Soldiers

Honestly who cares what Miller thinks or says on the subject?

It should be only for 2nd and 3rd child, to cut off Gypsies and other underclass "producers of children".

Those kinds of benefits beg to be exploited and makes little sense. Tax free income, tax free work (no health insurance paid by employer) that what makes sense.

Last night when watching TVP i noticed that these cursed soldier things are being sponsored bt PZU, PKO and PGNiG. like in Hungary, these businesses are now being treated as extensions of the state - totally direspectful for shareholders like myself to see our cash spent on party political works.

If for you honoring Polish soldiers is a problem. I think they should pay off your shares in rubles, stick on your back a note - something you left behind- and then a trebuchet should be deployed to hurl your ass over the border to Russia. No returns.

you're admitting that you're not a patriot at all.

You should be the last person on Earth delph to give lesson in patriotism. Anyhow you are talking about social involvement which is and should be voluntary. You're purposefully narrowing patriotism to only that one facet, leaving out a civic engagement for example.

By the way, if you don't understand why picking up mess after your dog or paying taxes is patriotic

That is BS that leftie like you elevated to some kind of mantra. In those examples you are only following the law, nothing more and nothing less.

Developing a sense of responsibility for your surroundings and esthetics is entirely something else and cannot be narrowed to dog shyte.
