News / President Duda rules out homo marriage in Poland as banned by the constitution [172]


Well, if you understand help as the state paying up the difference for someone mortgages - than you are right. If helps means anything that possible in those circumstances then you're wrong.

How about we focus on those who are responsible for such a situation like PO, and those who were actively advertising those mortgages like Petru? Let him give back money he made lying to people on behave of banks.


Why? If he want to praise PiS let him do it.


How about a swift kick in the arse? I don't care about your opinion and maybe they screwed up something or other. However you were silent for the eight years of PO f...k ups. So your credibility is non-existent.

History / Royal Family still in Poland? [79]


why would they want a king in the first place?.

History / Royal Family still in Poland? [79]


No, I mean that people who know very little about Poland would came to some erroneous conclusions.

Beside the fact that the only legitimate and widely accepted titles were those granted to few families whose names I have given in one of my post above.

Other titles wary from questionable, dubious to right away ridiculous. They muddle the straightforward view as to titles held by the constitution the Commonwealth.


I doubt that someone who is trying to trace his family history would post under the topic Royals family. I would hazard a guess that mostly those are teens trying to bust their confidence looking for some royal linage or misguided people who were told stories about their family origin when their were still a little children by their grandparents in terms they would be easy to understand for a six years old.

I believe in a cold shower as a remedy for those ill informed lazy bums.

How is that useful? That is mostly HS when it comes to titles. If not you can call me margrave.

The Royal line of the Sobieski family ended in 1737.

Of what?
Here are names that can use prince before it:
1,Sanguszko
2,Czartoryski
3,Czetwertynski
4,Druccki
5,Radziwił
Other are just made up tiles, honorary titles given to some old noble like after fall of the Polish kingdom or foreign titles. Polish name Austrian count or a such.

All nobles were Royals in the old Poland because theoretically each noble could have been elected the king of Poland.
Nobles constituted about 10% of the population so don't have your hopes up. Ah and there is no Royal estate in Poland anymore - no money.

History / What is Poles opinion on Intermarium (Międzymorze)? [188]


In the eyes of the Kremlin that is only a sematic distinction.


Come on Crow.


Good luck to you. say hi from me to your nurse.


That would make it harder.

History / What is Poles opinion on Intermarium (Międzymorze)? [188]


Have you seen an entity with a name Intermarium attached to it? No? That is precisely the reason for what did happen.


Those countries are well aware what has happened and why - they understand as they have their own post-commie redundant matter to deal with in their own countries.


Yes it not easy and straightforward. I know that.


Your problem derive from the fact that you focus to much on Kosovo. Nobody in the foreseeable future will give you Kosovo back and that is the fact you better start using to. Russia, positioning yourself as an opposition of NATO and USA is the worst way you can go about it.

In fact the only feasible way of you getting Kosovo back is to become part of the NATO and the best friend of the USA in the region. It won't be easy it won't be fast but it is the only realistic way in which you could possibly get this province back into Serbian fold.

Russia won't help with that. Russia is a waning power.

Intermarium is a concept of creating a body of a close cooperation of the nations between Russia and Germany . It's first aim to counter their influence in that region. Hence bulling it as an anti-NATO anti-USA pro-Russian entity doesn't make sense in the slightest.

Naturally a logical consequence of that concept is to be anti-EU and having a baking of the only power that matters and that would find that concept playing into their own hands. It means USA as that is the only powerful entity that would find that concept appealing and in their own interest.

So Crow you are being silly. Let's hope that Serbians statement are wiser than that and there enough people with brains in Serbia to back them up.

History / What is Poles opinion on Intermarium (Międzymorze)? [188]


Ah boo! That makes you a martyr, right?
Stop whining, nah that won't work, nah this or that is not possible. Has anyone envisioned such a formalized cooperation of countries of t he region would materialize tomorrow? Just with the snap of someone fingers? That will take years, decades and a lot of work. However that concept is worthy of pursuing in the interest of Poland and all other countries of the area.


What is with you people? Is that jealousy? If you don't work damn hard, don't adapt quickly and don't think on your feet, no matter where you are and what you do - you'll not succeed.


One has nothing to do with the other. Put your house into order first but it doesn't mean you shouldn't plan for the future.


Yes, it is very observant of you.


That is a completely different matter. At the time PO was doing Merkel and Tusk biding disregarding Poland's national interest.


In practical terms it means that countries of the region would take a stand on the international ground (including EU) as a block.
I would see furthering of a close strategic cooperation in regard to foreign capital, financiers, banks, media and other fields/issues of strategic importance. Partnership that would evolve into confederation.


Well, it doesn't need to happen on the same day and not all countries of the region have to join or do it all together. Also a level of involvement and engagement between countries of the region would differ from state to state. Self-interest would dictate the way and pace. A monolithic uniform sameness with huge bureaucracy is not a necessarily a good model to follow.

Do I bore you HARRY? Feel free to ignore me.


What facts? Do you really believe that those people stated as civilians are in fact civilians that have nothing to do with the oppressive commie tyrannical government? They are just regular citizens that just happened to own a gun. Are you that gullible for real?

Come on, tell me I'm wrong and you're better that that.


Sorry, I meant to say democracy that is equated with individual freedoms.


Not really, guns debate is a part of freedom and democracy should be a platform, a tool as a best way to achieve and secure those freedoms. Relegating democracy just as a system of electing your governing bodies is a gross oversimplification.


Well, I don't think that he cares much what lies he told you. You on the other hand latch to it as if that would matter in the slightest. On this forum we are talking about ideas, politics and exchange opinions on various issues. To do that we don't need personal info about people who post here. Nor do we need their home addresses and phone numbers.

I fail to understand your obsession with which you dig up personal info about people to then latch onto it to use it in an attempt to discredit a poster you disagree with.

Harry, on the internet forums all that doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is a quality and logic of arguments.

Hmm ...its not about unions or Slavic but more about a common interests of the countries in this general area to form some kind of close partnership and cooperation without Russian and Germany meddling.

No, it is not.


Why? Cause some people commit acts of violence or a crime? I never said that don't. How often thought legit gun owners commit crimes? That is the question you should find answer to before you have opened your big silly gob!

So do guns.
It is not about guns and vehicles, it is about mentality and a certain way of thinking.


In other words if possible you would remove them altogether and impose your insecurities and the way of thinking onto other people. That is a serious character flaw - a control freak. Gotta burst you bubble - you cannot control other people that is impossible.

So, they're misinformed and scared by scaremongers.


Those are just a pure speculations, predicting the future not an easy task.


I disagree it is due to few other issues. However we are not talking about USA.
I think people debating guns laws are going about it a wrong way. Should only talk about crimes committed by the legal gun owners rather than about general gun related deaths.

2. Comparisons of any kind almost always are flawed.

No, that is not a pure chance. There other issues in play.
I'm saying that more guns in the hands of people in Poland wouldn't mean more murders or crimes.

Poland has this historical tradition that citizens had the right to arm themselves in any way they deemed fit.
