Life / Why oh Why do Poles drive so incredibly poorly [109]


Then let him as he has the right to his opinion just like you do.


I understand that Love.
However if points accumulate on a persons drivers license for having many citations then his insurance rates for his car increase as his citations increase.

Eventually the guy won't be able to afford to insure his car taking him off the road plus eventually with enough citations he loses his drivers license for a year.

If he continues to drive he goes to jail for six months.

Life / Why oh Why do Poles drive so incredibly poorly [109]

Are you required to take a driving test first before you get your drivers license in Poland ?
Does each infractions raise your car insurance premiums ?
It seems like a simple enough problem to solve.

Life / How are electric cars doing in Poland? [413]


That was two years ago when the stock was at $243 per share and did I get laughed at.

I see this morning that Tesla stock is now at $905 per share.
That puts $122,800 in my pocket for my original 200 shares and another $54,500 on the 100 shares I bought later at $312 for a total of $191,700 profit so far in just two years.

With this said, it shows that with this kind of growth that it will be a very short time before Poland will be introduced these cars at an affordable price.

The first sign of electric cars in Poland will be when their charging ports start showing up everywhere.

That is why the Super Bowl has such a large audience, it includes everyone in one way or another.
Personally I celebrate it as the last game of the season because it takes up so much prime t.v. time for six months of the year.

Ever since the showing of disrespect for our National Anthem by taking a knee I personally lost interest for the game.
And yes, your soccer is getting more and more popular here in the U.S. and will shortly over take our present day football.

I agree, most the women that watch want the men to be quiet during the t.v. commercials as they are hilarious.

And now let's get prepped for the Biggest sporting event in the World.
SUPER BOWL SUNDAY Today !
1.33 BILLION Chicken wings will be eaten watching this game, 28,000,000 pounds of chips, the lord only knows how much beer by the 84 million people in the U.S. watching not to mention the most watched sporting event in the world by being broadcast in 130 countries and in 30 different languages.

Over $5 Billion dollars in the U.S. will be bet on this football game in various way.
You can make bets on the flip of the coin to how many seconds it will take to sing the National Anthem.
No doubt this is King when it comes to sporting events in the world.

They are saying to take the same precautions as you would for a cold or flu.
Get plenty of rest.
Eat a healthy diet.
Avoid excess sugar and alcohol.
Avoid crowds (malls, stadiums, airports, etc) and closed population (prisons, dormitories, nursing homes, any place with re-circled air).
You couldn't get me on an airplane right now for love nor money.
Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds with soap.
Avoid touching your face.


Actually the stupid brigade has contributed ten times the information on this subject than the OP has so who is stupid calling stupid.

News / First Coronavirus case in Poland? [30]

You and I know it is the truth Rich but if we went into details we would be OFF - TOPIC.
We must stay on topic which is about the virus in Poland.

News / First Coronavirus case in Poland? [30]

Here is my humble take on it......
Coronavirus Patent Granted To Bill Gates Funded Institute In 2018.
Does that give it more credence to The Theory It Might Be A Bioweapon ?
Old Billy wants to cut the world population by a few billion people because of his fear of global warming.
The virus was created in the labs in Canada and smuggled out to China is what I heard.
Now ask yourself this......
The reports of China quarantining Wuhan City, population 10 plus million are official.
For reference NYC has a population of 8.4 million and London has about 9 million.
Something tells me China is downplaying the amount of those infected and the number of deaths related to it.
Shutting down a city of this size over 600 sick and 9 dead just doesn't make sense to me.

Love / 20% of adult Poles are single and live with Mummy! [241]

Again, my point was that twice as many adults live off their parents in America compared to Poland.
It was a compliment to Polish parents teaching responsibility, accountability and independence at a young age.

Love / 20% of adult Poles are single and live with Mummy! [241]

My point here was that if 20% of single Poles still living at home after 18 years old is not as bad as over 30% here in America.

40% if you want to count the ones in college being supported their parents too.

And ten years later we call them Snowflake millennials living in their parents basements way into their twenties and thirties that have been handi capped by their enabling parents to make them dysfunctional in society.

When I turned 18 my Dad handed me $50 and showed me the door and said, "Good Luck Son."

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


Seems 'mass shootings' is the crutch for many anti-gun owners here.
The mass shootings in the U.S. are generally committed with assault weapons with high capacity magazines.
Big difference than having a five shot capacity gun.
So many myths out there to create an allusion of reality.
Did you know that Chicago is not even close to being the gun violence capital of the United States ?
But who in Poland would know this fact by reading the posts here on this forum.

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

Easy Rich, you are punching way to hard.


That is a fact to reckon with especially when you are awoken out of a dead sleep in the pitch dark or when you already have a gun pointing at you.

Good point Tac.

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


But this thread is not about the U.S.
It is about supporting gun legislation in Poland.
As far as gun crime in the U.S. it is pretty much limited to ten Democratic run cities.

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


I researched that and found it extremely expensive for the ordinary joe.
I also saw how the outfitters for these hunts in Poland 'rent' you a gun to use.
Much different where I live where most people hunt on millions of acres of public land with their personal gun, bow or crossbow.
Here in Michigan we harvest about 650,000 deer per season for food, (Government beef)
All you need is an over the counter $15 hunting license.

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

Now I understand as Poland has some very large game animals.
Your 338 lapua mag. compares to our 300 Winchester mag. that we use for elk, moose and grizzly bear.
Do a lot of people hunt in Poland as I see it is a very expensive sport there.
The Mouflon look very tasty.
I think people in Poland would support ownership of hunting rifles with a capacity of five rounds or less.
I do agree, handguns are not needed in Poland.

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

Please post a picture of that gun.
That should stop the stupid off - topic chatter here.
What kind of game are you going to hunt with it there in England ?
Grizzly bear and elephant ?


Because if we don't the Mods are going to close this thread too.

I will say that you have explained it better then anyone else here Milo.
That is why I was so appalled when I saw the ignorance in Spikes posts.
Thanks for your grounded input so we can stay more On-Topic here.

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


Couple of questions here.
How much did it cost you and take your time to google it.
I see here in the States they cost about $2700 (10,500 Zloty).


Sporting ? That thing is a cannon and it is a very heavy gun (6 kg) to carry around all day hunting.
It would totally destroy any animal beyond being able to eat it unless you hit it in the head. (They shoot a 250 grain bullet which is a pumpkin)

It is definitely not a sporting gun, it is made for long range shooting (up to 2000 meters) and the ammo for it is very expensive $2.20 per round (8.5 zloty) which makes it impractical to just go out and shoot up a couple of boxes on a Sunday afternoon for fun target practicing.


You are joking right, if you shot that thing inside a house not only would you be deaf for life but also the round would go thru the victim, (if you could manage to even hit him with that beast) then go thru the wall of your house, across the field and thru the wall of your neighbors house killing the baby sleeping in it's crib !

No, it is not a weapon for self defense Spike, your fellow hunters are a very bad source of information.
You should have asked old wrinkled up redneck J.R. from the U.S.A. who has been shooting guns for over a half century making him an expert on the subject.

I am starting to see now why Lenka thinks it is a bad idea for the Polish to own guns.

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

Did you happen to notice the word "tactical" by any chance ?
It's not how powerful your weapon is, it's how well you place your shot.
I use a hunting rifle that is half that powerful and can put down any animal that lives in America with one shot.
Again, Poland would need much education and stringent laws before they could just hand out weapons like you are talking about.
Maybe Poland would have to start out on air guns to practice with first before real guns were available to them.

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


Gees Oh Pete Spike !
Just a tad bit of over kill for a boar or moose.
That rifle is set up for a sniper to shoot 1800 meters.
If you hit a boar with that round all you would have left is minced meat.
And this is one more reason that education is very important before they let just anybody buy one. :-/

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


The last two potential mass shootings were stopped by armed citizens that saved the court, and prison system money not to mention the innocent lives.
