History / Tuchola in Poland - roots of Katyn? [220]

But isn't it slavic culture that makes Russia what it is? If Russia becomes Chinese or Muslim than it is no longer Russia. It has become 'something else'.

all these Chinese immediately adopts Russian names, custom, behavior! A couple of years in Russia and the drink vodka better than native population. Assimilation on its way.

So Russia will lose its slavic roots? Hmmmm

Ladies and gentlemen - meet Ivan Ivanovich Ivanov...

Lol.

latent racism, as you have it in Poland/Europe is much more dangerous than sporadic eruptions as we have here.

Lol, Ah, living in the "twilight zone" is fun.

stop talking about China, this phantasmal threat invented in Washington.

There are about 1.4 billion Chinese on Russians southern border. In 15-20 years, they and the stupid internationalists will demand that Russia is too thinly populated and should give up land to the Chinese. This will occur after previous Chinese demands on the world currency. At that point, the U.S. and the Russians might want to solidify a serious partnership.

Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2237]

it becomes uncomfortable for most people to continue discussing root causes

Robber: " Gimme your money or I'll shoot you. I'm only doing this because I was culturally and economically disadvantaged."
Victim : "But I didn't do it"

Robber: "My liberal professor told me it's all societies fault, now, gimme da money."
Victim: "I've always supported the poor."

Robber: " I came from a single parent household so I'm not responsible, now gimme da money"
Victim: " Let me help you, I'm a liberal and I feel your pain....."

Robber: "Bang" Pain this!

Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2237]

Thats bull crap, citizens carrying guns is not much more than an annoying side effect for the government.

It would seem that it was "more than an annoying side effect" for the British when America fought for and won its independence. If it was merely "annoying" then why do dictators take away guns from the populace as one of their first acts?

You will always find stories such as this, its a no brainer.

You are referring to people who have successfully defended themselves against violence and/or robbery. Since you agree that such "stories" abound then that is reason enough to own guns.

I would love to own a gun really. But i wouldnt like anybody else to have one.

Typical selfish liberal point-of-view.

ZIMMY:
I know. They fail the 'big picture' test and what might that be?
This is what i see as uses for owning guns:
1. hunting
2. protection/security
3. pass time/recreation

What others in the big picture are there?

The obvious Big Picture that your liberalism prevents you from comprehending is this:
It's the right of a free people to possess a means of self defense not only against criminal assault but also against tyrannical government when necessary. Of course, being a BigGovernment advocate, you cannot comprehend that government should be subservient to individual rights.

he Poles would only use them to invade Ukraine and take back Lwow. ;P

So? What's the problem? :)

hy the hell allow guns at this point in history?

Allowed by who? People have a right to own guns in a democracy

Governments' inherently grow their power; it's in the nature of large entities, especially ones that govern. We have seen the result in Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union, and unfortunately in many other places. Hitler immediately banned gun ownership by individuals, so did Stalin and so do modern dictators like Castro. No need to ask why now do we?

Love / Polish women are complicated. Why? [51]

Wallet?
It never ceases to amaze me how often women admit, without meaning to, their attempt at controlling men while extracting money or goods from them.

if you wanna piece of ass, say good bye to your valet (wallet)

......and women wonder why smart men think less of them.

guys, need to smart up about women..

Some of us are a little too smart eh? In the old days your comments might have been taken with some humor but now they seem 'old hat'. A soiled one at that.

Yes, but he is a very good actor; Once, he played the part of a Nigerian Pygmy although he walked on his knees a lot in that film. He was never able to properly genuflect again but that's another story..........

Excellent animation but for those who prefer to skip the full assembly, I recommend viewing this from about the 3:20 minute point. Of course, all of it is good and the beauty of the Colt .45/ 1911 is there in all its naked beauty.

POLENGGGs, you seem to be the type of irrational, possibly even hateful person who sees everything through the dim lense of anger. If you fell in mud and I picked you up, you would blame me for not cleaning up the mud even though it was not my fault that it was there.

You would overlook the fact that I helped you up, that aspect wouldn't register with the likes of you.

Love / Polish men are complete doormats (especially after they get married) [125]

women need to make their minds up as to on which occasion we are supposed to exercise which traits.

I know and understand what you are saying but I still disagree. It's up to men to decide how they wish to act and what personable traits they wish to exhibit. Men must be themselves first and not have their strings pulled by women who are generally too fickle to know what they want from men at any given time.

As to women who want a "gentleman", perhaps they have to become 'ladies' first. Dressing like ****** and using sex to sell themselves is not exactly acting ladylike. Constantly complaining about men, frequently when men aren't around' is not being a lady either. Let's not forget that much of feminism claims that genders are merely social constructs and much of their literature is based on this false premise. Do these feminists demand that women become ladies? Not hardly.

Too many women have a wrong definition of the word "lady". Ironically, they demand that men pay their girlfriends and wives like prostitutes — cash, dinners, vacations, jewelry, gifts, even clothing — in exchange for sex. Unnecessary and emasculating to men, this insipid behavior only makes them prostitutes and that rose does indeed not smell as sweet.

it's be Cary Grant or feck off ya useless sh1te then...

Heh,heh, absolutely right. When some less than clean, unshaven construction worker oogles an under dressed woman intentionally walking by, these women cry "harassment" or "sexist" or merely eeewww, gross. Yet, a block later some young well dressed businessman or banker can do the same exact thing, and she's interested.

Simply put; men, be youself and use your God given testosterone as nature designed it to be used - as a man

Ah yes, comparing murder rates is really "a tale of two cities " as Charles Dickens would say or in this juxtaposition, 'a tale of two societies'.

Who actually does the killing? It is 'politically incorrect' to fully explain this but of course I will.
Black Americans are 12.5% of the U.S. population but for the past several decades have been responsible for 50% of all murders. This is not an indictment on skin color or any of that racist nonsense. It is more an accusation against the nanny state with its dependency policies which have ruined Black families.

Since the 1960's the U.S. government in its 'wisdom' has sought to be big brother thus wasting trillions of dollars in programs that undercut the economy. These demeaning welfare programs perpetuated dependency and ironically more poverty.

Excluding minority crime, the murder rate in the U.S. is easily comparable to that of the so-called enlightened European states. As one of my links above shows I(#211), gun ownership prevents crime. Anti gun advocates fail the critical thinking test and are easily swept up with knee-jerk 'feelings' about this [gun] and other issues.

Don't you think that the murder rate will only go up when you introduce the right to use guns to Poland?

Either you missed this link in my post #168
press.uchicago.edu/Misc/Chicago/493636.html
("States with the largest increases in gun ownership also have the largest drops in violent crimes") or some things just don't register with people who base their decisions on 'feelings' instead of facts.

Almost every society has had to check the power of BigGovernment which inherently takes, takes, takes while depriving rights of the people.

Here is another bit of statistic: for every time a gun in the home is used in a self-defense or legally justifiable shooting, there were four unintentional shootings, seven criminal assaults or homicides, and 11 attempted or completed suicides.

this ridiculous comparison between fire arms and cars.

You've ridiculed trener zolwia on this comparison but gave no answer.

Saying that guns themselves don't kill people, is in itself correct, but fails to address the fact that guns are always USED by people and thus are deadly.

Automobiles are another product that is used by people, and cars are also deadly, therefore what.........?

It has nothing to do with race, religion or whatever ... it has to do with the availability of guns,

It has to do with some cultures, that cannot be denied. Now, as to availability, the states with the most liberal gun laws such as 'conceal and carry' have the lowest gun crime rates.

So much for your 'feelings' on how things really are.

you're just proving that guns should not be so easily available.

I don't oppose background checks. You and Stu seem incapable of grasping the fact that cultures raised by single parents are the problem (once again, not all). That's why I pointed out the murders within a segment of the community. That's the root problem not the inanimate gun.

I live in the Netherlands .

It's never too late to get out.

Automobiles kill far more people than guns.

Guns means people get shot.

Automobiles mean that people die in car accidents. If you are so concerned about deaths than using your 'logic' we should ban automobiles. Feel free to look up the deaths and injuries on your own.

Men die building highrises, they should be banned. etc.

Most Americans support gun ownership because at the end of the day, they don't trust their government to defend them

That may very well be the bottom line.

Those who ignore 'who' commits crimes miss the point about gun ownership. Chicago had the strongest anti gun laws and yet the city had more murders per month than soldiers killed in Iraq. States with the most lenient gun laws have fewer gun crimes.

According to Heather MacDonald of the Manhattan Institute; "In every American city, the disproportionate black illegitimacy rate is matched only by the disproportionate black crime rate. In Chicago, blacks...commit 76% of all homicides, whites....commit 4%. In New York City, blacks...commit 80% of all shootings; whites .....commit less than 2% ... The black illegitimacy rate in New Your is more than 78%; the white illegitimacy rate is 7%. The national rate of homicide commission for black males ...is 10 times higher than that of whites into which category the federal government puts the vast majority of Hispanics [who also have a higher crime rate using weapons].

What does this mean? It's the culture, a large part being young males and females growing up without a father.
