News / Poland to introduce border controls with Germany and Lithuania [101]


You stated selected facts that suit your narrative. Why don't you get to the bottom of it and answer the question of why the EU countries with an external border allowed those migrants in? Once you find a truthful answer to that question, we can talk again.
---

Indeed, if that is your attitude, you need to know that Poland doesn't have to take undocumented migrants off your hands, and if that is the attitude of your government, they might expect a closed border very soon and migrants pouring across your border. No need to thank me.

@BB, see BB, you are an exception, one can reason with you to a degree, I'm afraid that your ruling class and decisions makers think more alike, Tacitus.

Indeed, everybody is guilty, but the blameless and law-abiding Germany is a victim here. Why does that sound familiar?
---

Oh yeah, the court needs to have a say on this matter. However, German neighbors, there is no need to take them to court, they are guilty as charged, eh?
---

The reality is that if people cross into Poland illegally, it's difficult to blame Poland for not following proper paperwork.

Additionally, the challenges Poland faces with its eastern neighbors have existed for some time. Has Brussels, Germany, or anyone else provided support or assistance to help Poland deal with this issue? The issue of asymmetrical warfare being waged by Moscow against Poland, using Belarus as a proxy and migrants as their weapon of choice, is collectively ignored by the EU. It's frustrating to see such inaction from supposed allies.

All Poland hears are cries for human rights, discussions about the illegality of border pushbacks (which is something Berlin is doing now), and plenty of other anti-Polish propaganda. It's clear that we are not being treated as true allies.

I wonder if you believe in such a world because you trust German propaganda and their authors, or perhaps because you are predisposed to trust them. Maybe you feel that believing this narrative makes you look better, so you pretend to agree.

Regardless of the reason, Polish citizens, including myself, wouldn't have an issue with returning the migrants who entered Germany through Poland. That response is more than what you can expect from friends like France and Austria. Even your old ally Italy told you to go figure it out yourself.

Instead of being grateful for a supportive neighbor like Poland, your government took advantage of the situation by shifting as many migrants as possible onto us without a proper procedure or a shred of evidence that they originated from Poland.

How can you verify that these people crossed the Polish-German border? You could check their iPods or mobile phones to see if they have been active in Poland. But why bother? Poland's government behaves like pushovers, taking in anyone you send our way-let's exploit that opportunity, shall we?

Are you surprised that nobody likes you? Aside from Israel and Russia, that's not exactly something to take pride in.

The most likely because they are afraid that those times when they kicked out whoever they could over the Polish border are coming to an end.

I understand that you believe diversity is a strength. Therefore, you should be ashamed that Britain hasn't even reached 40% diversity.

News / Poland to introduce border controls with Germany and Lithuania [101]


Do you know why I'm emphasizing this issue? Over the past few years, Poland has frequently encountered this situation, and there have been financial penalties to pay. However, now that the German government is openly disregarding EU law, I haven't heard of any penalties or threats from Brussels directed at Germany. This really supports my point.

As you know, I believe that many of these laws are questionable, particularly the green policies. I think Poland should completely discard them since EU law does not treat all member states equally.

Is that not clear enough? It i against the EU law. Also, it was supposed to be temporary this was the Germans' excuse, but it has been going on for long enough to be permanent.
Now that the Tusk government announced that Poland will establish checkpoints on the Polish side of the border, it seems the Germans have an issue with it.

By the way, the German government wants to sort out their problem by shifting it onto Poland and whoever is stupid enough to take those people and does not ask questions.
The Tusk government's support has dramatically gone down after that issue became known to the Polish public.
Hence his desperate announcements.

Britain needs to take in 40% of diverse ethnicities to reach Poland's pre-war levels of diversity. I know you might not understand; it's a joke, but progressives probably won't find it funny

That is only a recent phenomenon. Such homogeneity, which has been noted many times, is nothing unusual in Europe. Take Sweden, for instance, until recently, or Iceland, Austria, or even Germany before 2000. Mass migration has changed the picture somewhat, but most European countries, including England, have been and still are, for the most part, quite homogeneous.

Why is Poland's homogeneity a recent development? It dates back to 1945 when large masses of people were forcibly transferred in various directions, along with the major border shifts that followed, leading to the Poland we know today. Historically, Poland was much more diverse than many other countries in Europe for a long time. Before the war, only 60% of the citizens in Poland identified as Polish.

So, you still have a long way to go before reaching 60% of the British compared to all the others.

Natural selection is good, assuming he wouldn't receive two years in prison due to Brussels' influence on the law. Hanging would resolve issues with such individuals; if they are mentally ill, a rope would cure them.

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


The communists brainwashed people in Poland during 40 years of Soviet domination. They had an incentive to instill a fear of firearms because they were concerned that the oppressed Polish population might use guns for resistance or self-defense. Meanwhile, members of the communist party had easy access to firearms.

Although the communist system has ended, the effects of that brainwashing still linger today. Many people in Poland are unaware of the American gun system and the issues surrounding firearms in the United States. They often only see news reports about shootings and mistakenly believe that anyone can simply walk into a store and buy guns like they would buy candy.

Only because you don't know the first thing about religion.
The Pope is free to express his views, but there is no obligation to listen to him unless he speaks on matters of doctrine ex cathedra; in those cases, everyone is expected to comply.

I would advise against such actions, as they could be used as a pretext for the government to suppress the opposition and would undoubtedly be exaggerated by their propaganda. Tusk's harmful policies and Germany's audacity will lead even those who are simply trying to go about their lives to cry out for order when faced with issues, such as wild individuals causing theft or worse.

Removing this traitorous and incompetent government should be a top priority.
