Why do you enjoy mocking Poles?
Is this some kind of Pol Am superiority complex?
If so, it is unfounded.

It does, but as you say, good luck to them.
In the article they mentioned returning some of the stuff to their rightful owners, but I don't know what the position is in Poland on finding this kind of stuff.
But I am sure someone on PF will know.

UK, Ireland / Polish cities and their UK twins [34]
Poland does have some wonderful parks, especially in Warsaw.
But they are no match for the parks in larger cities, like London or in the USA.
I now hear that even these are now under threat by developers.
In my opinion, a nation that largely lives in apartments rather than houses,
need these spaces more than most.
Opinions?
Torun is a wonderful Polish city, birthplace of Kopernik and the Gingeer bread capital of Poland, which came to Poland from Germany during the Hanseatic period....it also has some great Gothic architecture.

Law / Polish Police and Their Tactics [237]
@johnny reb
I actually think it is unfair to compare Polish/European policing tactics to America.
America has a much greater level of violent crime than Europe.
Guns are much more easily available in America and Americans are more scared of violent crime than Europeans and righty so.
Police in America therefore react much more violently than European police to counter this extreme violence that Europeans struggle to comprehend.
George Floyd was a bad guy, but he did not deserve to die for using a counterfeit 20 dollar bill.
Derek Chavin was a bad cop.Unstable, violent and with some other social and mental problems.
But I object to people now referring to him as a white supremacist.
There are people out there, both black and white, who just want to stir up some kind of race war.
Don't let this happen.
It will benefit only the extremists on both sides.

Abortion is never simple.
It involves many situations, circumstances and peoples mental health.
In general, I would oppose abortion wherever possible.
But I can envisage situations where it is the least worst option.
