Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1070]

Obsessed with drugged up azzholes on a home invasion

Same question every day

So same answers

How do they get through the outer gate, into the klatka, up the stairs and into the apartment if they are drugged up ?

If there are two of them won't at least one think it's a crazy idea ?

Don't junkies normally work alone ?

I'm not really into women's football but Poland are playing in the women's Euro championship for the first time - so far 0-0 v Germany

Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1070]

Someone might cut my "phone line" during a "home invasion". ?

Is the engineering profession in Illinois aware of cordless telephones ?

Yes we want nukes - because illegal drunk crazy rapists do exist in Europe and are responsible for most of the home invasions this century. They way the cheap and ill fitting uniforms of the North Nigerian army

Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1070]

Shut up about triggers, fire and all the rest of it.

It is boring and your arguments are dumb

Of course US "home invasions" turn violent - because of the presence of stupid guns.

Violent criminals will always have guns IN AMERICA.

Not in Poland - it is extremely tricky to get hold of a gun here unless you have links to serious organized crime. And those guys don't waste their time on "home invasions" in suburban apartment complexes

Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1070]

Despite the obvious deterrent power of firearms, Illinois has a burglary rate 3x that of Poland.

Yet we keep seeing the same demented questions about "home invasions"

All we are missing is a lame ass picture of his guns

Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1070]

I have a gate and a buzzer

What the hell are you talking about ?

Oh ? We moved on from so called "home invasions" with a knife and now we are talking about migrants

Muscle bound transsexuals will follow soon

Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1070]

But I don't have a mains gas connection

If they are delivering something I get an SMS

You do not have a gram of common sense.

I thought you were an engineer

Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1070]

Ha ha yes though his first problem would be the one way system and then finding somewhere to park before he embarks on his bloody project - I'm sure he would knife someone in road rage long before he rang any buzzers

Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1070]

How would he get into the outer part of the complex, into the klatka and then in the often broken lift and then into my apartment?

Nobody else has a problem with the rules or the spirit of this friendly contest JR

Will post June results on Friday when I am back at my desk

Off-Topic / Stock Market Talk and Trading - part 2 [747]

It might change tomorrow - both PolAm and Jon are close behind you.

The 30th June is in Europe a day when lots of buy and sell orders are activated - especially in Germany and France because of local tax issues

PolAm has so far the best individual stock CRCL which is 116% up but is let down by his oil picks

As for the rules - it was clear this is a year long contest and as I'm funding the prizes I'm judge and jury.

Off-Topic / Stock Market Talk and Trading - part 2 [747]

June hasn't finished yet.

I will post results Thursday or Friday when I get back for a work trip but at the moment you are leading and I am bottom :)

We are not changing every month - I can't be bothered to keep altering the spreadsheet

Amazon is up 3 percent the last month, not 8.

Hood is up 29 percent not 24

News / Germany eyes Poland's economic miracle [44]

Ok - so double and not 4x as you originally stated

And then you need to make the adjustments for quality of life, healthcare, holidays, etc.

America is richer than Poland. No one's arguing with that. But small town, South Carolina or falling down Steubenville, Ohio is no paradise. What is more? Poland is advancing rapidly

News / Germany eyes Poland's economic miracle [44]

And you argue with your own government's figures

sofi.com/learn/content/average-salary-in-us/

And your Polish figure is wrong too - works out at 35 zloty per hour. You try hiring someone for that these days. Maybe out in a small village it's possible.

News / Germany eyes Poland's economic miracle [44]

Average US income is 66k USD or 62k if you use the median (which you should consider, considering the inequalities and unfairness of American Society.).

Why is it that Maga types can never get any numbers correct and then call everyone else morons ?

News / Germany eyes Poland's economic miracle [44]

Completely daft use of statistics by Novi

He is comparing US GDP per head at PPP with Polish ex PPP

In fact if we talk about buying power then the difference us between 82k in the US and 43k in Poland

But inequalities in the US are higher and hardly anyone has free healthcare, college education is ruinous and the US have less holidays

No doubt the US is richer but on quality of life the gap is much narrowr

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]

More and more reports ? Like what ?

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]

Nope - didn't work.

No evidence that it did, except Golden Cow saying so.

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]

America was protecting Poland for 80 years ?

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]

What magnificent achievement? I said straight afterwards that this attack hadn't worked

Knocked down a few outbuildings

Even the US intelligence aren't pretending that it worked

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]

Oh yeah, i forgot they invented the word bistro

And I also forgot they have nukes

What genocide are you talking about ?

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]

I am sure every person in Europe could name 10 Italian gifts to the world in less than a minute.

Belgium takes a bit more effort but plenty of fine heritage

The North Nigerians ?

Shoes made of tree bark
Cheap misfiring weapons beloved of terrorists
Amateur ****
Ice fishing
Crappy cartoons
Gloomy novels
Lada and Moskvitch cars
Rock hard bread and grey sludge for dinner
Er....
That's it

UK, Ireland / Polish YouTuber weirdos trash-talking the UK [214]

Yes probably right Torq

Not the best way to start a new week honestly

UK, Ireland / Polish YouTuber weirdos trash-talking the UK [214]

Don't know about Biedronka as they have a very specific model to only present a limited choice; but Auchan and Kaufland have Ukrainian sections and big city Auchans also have a Vietnamese section.

Retailers are well organized in any country - they will fill any vacuum where they think they can make money.

Who is owning the Polish stores in the UK ? I was wondering if previous generations from India, Greece etc were just releasing the premises and putting a Polish sign up ?

Off-Topic / Stock Market Talk and Trading - part 2 [747]

Ha ha yes I was thinking about that today while gardening - I'm sure you are going to win the prize for June

I do have a few oil stocks in my old portfolio - Schlumberger Total and Shell so should do ok

One prediction I can make is that Trump and Netanyahu will never get a Nobel peace prize

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]

What a crappy video LOL

No chance that this has worked

Old TACO will be back to the drawing board tomorrow

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]

Highly doubtful those strikes worked.

Anyway presume Golden Cow knows that he now owns this problem and can clean up the mess

News / Karol Nawrocki - the New President of Poland [495]

400.000 votes difference - so a swing of 200k. Quite a tall order to find them. Possible to fiddle in North Nigeria - more difficult with observers and journalists present

Can I ask for the third time where the spreadsheet came from and if there is some better evidence?
