There are many years since i came to this forum. Poles gave me right to speak. i retreated here, took this forum as kind of sanctuary and i relaxed my Slavic soul among brotherly Poles and other Slavs and even among others.

... some people here can`t understand my devotion to the Slavic civilization. Well, its my world. THEY can globalize me, THEY can bring NEW WORLD ORDER TO ME, THEY can destroy my country, THEY can MANY THINGS. What THEY can`t, THEY can`t have my Slavic soul

Brewskis in Pittsburgh and Atlantic City

Poles of Chicago

The Slavs are marching! Venerable cataloguer and tracker of all things Slavic in the city, Slavs of New York! is planning to, uh, expand the franchise by covering Slavic events in other cities. First on the list are Pittsburgh and Atlantic City. We think those are good steps, though we'll be the first to admit we have no idea about Slavic goings on in Atlantic City.

Still, we're surprised their not doing Chicago first. Is it too Polish oriented? We know that people jokingly refer to it as the second largest Polish city after Warsaw, so it certainly makes sense to us. Covering the sausage alone would take ages, but we're biased towards pork products and/or byproduct ourselves. We're curious to see what develops.


Polish celebration in Chicago

Celebrate Poland, a display of ethnic heritage marked by traditional dance, music and costumes, was held in Chicago at Navy Pier. Chicago has the largest Polish population of any city outside Warsaw

I've been to many of these Slavic parades in the USA. It seems many of the Slavic women that go to those events have black husbands. I'm happy that they're sharing their culture.

Merged: Would Poles and other Slavs of Chicago support Rahm Emanuel at mayoral elections 2015 ?

Rahm Emanuel Leads Poll Among Polish Voters in Chicago

pal-pac.org/news/rahm-emanuel-leads-poll-among-polish-voters-in-chicago

Rahm Emanuel = 41%
Robert Fioretti = 24%
Jesús "Chuy" García = 12%
William "Dock" Walls = 3%
Willie Wilson = 3%
Undecided = 18%

The results of this particular poll show that Rahm Emanuel has a decisive lead on other candidates

If gets absolute support of Chicago Slavic majority, Rahm Emanuel almost certainly secured its second term in office. Let us remember that is Chicago biggest Slavic city outside of Slavic world, with more then 2,5 Slavic souls living there, of which 1,5 are Poles.

Chicago mayoral election, 2015 are without any debt, most important political event for Slavs that live in America. This thread is about it.

Should Chicago become autonomous Polish province within Illinois, USA ?

You mean like a Native American Reservation? I'd think that most people certainly wouldn't wasn't it, however the tax breaks and excise-free cigs and booze plus the casinos might be a draw.

Or do you mean a Balkan-style one, as in the former Yugoslavia? No need, because unlike the Serbs, the Americans are not terrorising Pol-Ams.

Pane nothanks, Chicago could be kind of purgatory. Nice one. As kind of prelude to Poland that is understand as heaven on Earth

You mean like a Native American Reservation?

exactly. Rate of assimilation of Poles within Anglo world is enormous and in Chicago, as autonomous Polish province, assimilation could be even stooped.

Not to mention that would other Americans start spending enormous quantities of money on touristic visits to Chicago, just to see how it look like to live decent Polish life.

Or do you mean a Balkan-style one, as in the former Yugoslavia? No need, because unlike the Serbs, the Americans are not terrorising Pol-Ams.

jone, refrain yourself from spreading NATO/Islamic League/EU war propaganda against Serbs.

Would the Poles want that to happen? I doubt it.

why you doubt it? Do Poles in America see themselves rather as part of Anglo world?

My regards to Polish diaspora that demonstrate its deep loyalty to Poland!

Poland's opinion on Standing Rock movement and did Poles took part in it?



What is opinion of brotherly Polish people on Standing Rock? Did some of Poles took part in it? I would like to know. We Slavs still have souls?

In my country, its seen as real example of solidarity between people, between civilizations. Spontaneous expression of good will among humans. So, not false and forcible muticulturalism.

Let us not forget on Rod Blagojevich`s, Governor of Illinois, US, contribution to Polish academic life



Interestingly, this was result of cooperation between USA Governor Rod Blagojevich of Serbian origin and back then Poland`s president Lech Kaczynski. Its kind of monument to their work.

Blago served Slavic cause. If, I say even if he mistaken in something nobody can`t deny his contribution. Plus, who knows, judging by all what we see of USA politics Blago may be himself victim of murderous, sick and maniacal Clinton clan. Victim of Shquiptar lobby. Not to speak of Obama`s twisted ways. Somebody maybe didn`t like to have Serbian and Slavic representative in higher US politics.

If I'm not mistaken you condemned him years ago for being involved with the mujahideen or ratko, but now youre his buddy?

Be care dude , the archives are there.

Show us those archives then, you mean man with the nick name Joker. I never said that Blago was involved with mujaheedines. Even if he was, he was against them. For sure, in that case, side by side with Ratko.

Seriously man, what is interesting Blagojevich`s political life was destroyed (as if?), while Lech Kaczynski, President of Poland, was assassinated. Destines of two man maybe were connected. Same people, most probable Clinton clan & Co. were behind all that. If anybody was, they were.

Blago was man of Chicago Slavs. Poles and Serbians there were behind him. That is why Blago was target with attempt to ruin his political life

The FBI caught this clown red handed trying to sell Obamas vacant Senate seat. The evidence was overwhelming and he was convicted and sentenced to prison. Case closed. There is NO anti Serbian conspiracy as Crow would have to believe along with his non stop spamming about serbia on this forum.

Here is the some of the real evidence from the trial

You trust to USA judicial system?

Blago to prison? And what about Bill and Hillary Clinton, William Walker, Madeline Albright, etc famous USA maniacs involved with most extremist members of Islamic league? Just to name few and USA is full of such a persons.

Total rubbish, stick to the facts and stop telling lies to make serbians look better.

Rubbish? You sure? Serbians resisting to Uni-Polar world and prominent Serbs makes suitable targets. Then, when one see who walks free in US, one really begins to think whats going on.

BDW Polish President Lech Kaczynski supported Serbs and criticized Uni-Polar world in UN and he isn`t among us anymore. Somehow he suddenly died.

Blago for next US President after Trump`s 8 years!

Only after Trump and Blago USA would again become great and respected country.
