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

@Dirk diggler

To be honest I have not researched this subject so thoroughly so I don't want to argue but just 2 thoughts.

>>>The remaining 90% are by criminals shooting each other or innocent people with guns they acquired illegally>>>>

I believe they are illegal so they will be harder to trace later by Police...but I think there are much more these type of shootings in USA than in Europe ( also with illegal guns). What is the reason?

and

did you read this article? Do you agree ?

[quote=cms]Many victims and a huge cover up. It has many parallels to Rotherham. I'm a catholic.quote]

I does not- in Rotherham P O L I C E and S O C I A L services were notified and they had done nothing. 2 institution ( supported by tax payers money) which should support the most vulnerable people in society did nothing. Justice only started rolling when brave journalist fromThe Times opened box of worms.

How do these people can live with their conciousness now is beyond me. Lets be honest these girls raped hundred times, passed around like piece of meat gone through so much trauma that they will never be able to lead normal life.

In case of priests molesting boys in Poland - it was covered up by church dignitary not Social Services or Police.

In some way it shows very unpleasant side of British Society ....people so frightened of confrontation/racism accusation that they prefer to brush problem under carpet.

@SigSauer

This situation is getting dangerous and extreme. As you said 'facts become racist' and the easiest way is ( instead of dealing with it) to brush problem under the blanket and pretend it does not exist any more....

I think that as a result of it from normal people who want to preserve their culture but also far right will grow in Europe and it will turn nasty.

Example of ridiculous .....

Wise words.European are not used to guns in USA it is part of your culture and it is fine to stay how it is.

UK, Ireland / Racist ex-priest Międlar tries to fly from Poland to U.K. again. [293]


.....and police ,social services knew about it but did nothing for years frightened to be accused of racism. When you think about it how many young girls were hurt and their life is broken now I would say that this disgust me more than Britain First actions.

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


In Chechy? Do they sell them in corner shop?

I think it is difference between access to guns through illegal sources and licence and buying them easily in USA.

I don't think I agree with you.

Don't be too precise by you I meant your Home Office but it was decision taken in your country.

@rozumiemnic


It is your decision - you give them passport/ permission to stay not some magical tooth-fairy. Yes we have completely different history and I don't judge you. UK with colonial past will always have strong ties with commonwealth countries.In my personal view people from India bring many positives to UK. Lots of them are specialists in IT, businessmen, doctors... plus ( in spite of colonial past) they are loyal to your country....as for Pakistanis....it 's different story I am afraid.

Theoretically nothing- except the fact that some areas on London are replaced with people from previous colonies....hardly to find ingenious folks...but your country your decision.

@Ironside

Yes and No- it was small group and they could be racist idiots or they could be provocateurs but I don't think that we want to be seen abroad as Nazi-racist country. The problem is that papers and liberal 'progressives' look for sensation and blow it our of proportion.

Propaganda is spread by lefties but unfortunately average person who knows very little about Poland would believe in it and it is wrong.

News / Goodbye Sunday Shopping in Poland - Hello Electoral Reform [246]

@SigSauer

I think that there are few aspects in it:

- one is that ' over the top dramatic news' sell well so most papers had to exaggerate on news.
- political correctness brainwashed people and killed logical thinking

but

lets be honest. There was small group of people with racist/nasty signs...there was no need for it. Without them it would be just pleasant, patriotic march. With them everything was twisted by 'liberals'.

I thought that I read somewhere that we were to sue this idiot from Brussel who said about '60 000 Nazis marching'- and I think we should as it was just twisted news.

News / Goodbye Sunday Shopping in Poland - Hello Electoral Reform [246]


I think that our opinions are influenced by our upbringing but also by our education, environment so they can change with time.I don't think that many people are 100% conservative or liberal it is usually mixture.

I am weird cross between conservative and green :-)

I agree with you on judges stance.

Yes- all this ban on Sunday trade is very bad decision and will affect our economy- especially in the big touristic towns ( like Krakow I come from)

Propose on ban on ritual slaughter and fur animal farm I am 100 for it !!!. I am against cruelty towards animals.

But all this unpleasant attitude of PIS towards In vitro- ??? What is wrong with it? It is the best way to get pregnant for woman who can't get in natural way.

Again - all these black marches for abortion....I am for abortion if pregnancy was a result of rape of there is risk that mother dies or child will be highly disabled.....but in UK there are some reckless women who just sleep around without contraception and they treat abortion as contraception- I find it just disgusting.So I think lots of these issues depends on context.

But I suppose what is positive about PIS they try to be 'socialist' and improve life of 'average Kowalski'. Unfortunately some of these changes will probably backfire- like reducing retirement age.....People live longer now....there is no enough money in the ZUS pot so I am afraid it will go up soon.

News / Goodbye Sunday Shopping in Poland - Hello Electoral Reform [246]


Because I don't live in Poland I Iook at it from more objective perspective. Ha,ha and I don't have polish tv so no media brainwashing.... I don't always agree with things that some of PIS people say and let's be honest they don't have the best diplomatic skills but in the bigger scale they try to be loyal to their country and people.

News / Goodbye Sunday Shopping in Poland - Hello Electoral Reform [246]


And I don't understand it? Once we can be brave, patriotic, fighting for your country and then.....people like this. It is like chicken fall out with his chicken mates and runs to fox for help. Idiocy- but apparently they are well educated and progressive and PIS is uneducated and backward.

News / Goodbye Sunday Shopping in Poland - Hello Electoral Reform [246]


I am surprised you wrote it....Ok, Kaczynski is deluded little man who is power hungry....PIS is overly orientated towards Catholic church but!!!! There is one thing which PO did which is unforgivable- running like little nasty backstabber to Brussel and report against your own country, government? Which other country does things like this?

I live in UK and people like Farage or Corbyn or Theresa May -they come from different political parties. They can be nasty to each other in parliament, press conferences but outside UK they always stick for their own country.. So sorry but PO or KOD....they are just nasty, selfish traitors for me ( and I guess more people in Poland).

Yes and no- PC causes frustration so the only people that British can lash out without being accused of racism are Polish...

So opening borders to unlimited emigration without any ID shows commitment to UE?

As large part of German population is still willing to take more co -called 'refuges' it is part of TV/press brainwashing and propaganda in Germany and part of their eternal feeling of guiltiness.

WHY ARE OTHER COUNTRIES TO FOLLOW IT ?????

I remember from school times ( ages ago) that about 80% children had blue or green eyes....I was odd one with brown ones. So as per saying 'exception confirms the rule'.....I would say I has been like this in Poland for a while.

What does it mean for a while?.... 1 hundred....2 hundred years. I think in each country there is some kind of mode- people with certain feature.....north Europe....south Europe....South America....

Anthropologist, historian have studied these subjects for years so I wouldn't treat this subject in such a superficial matter.

Genealogy / Why are some Polish people dark complected, and others very light [511]


That is true but it depends how long you live abroad some emigrants ( with time) get more and more similar to locals.

I have friend - English- her family comes from Liverpool.

She is very pretty - Quite a few people asked her/thought that she was Polish. Not sure why...general her look ,clothes she wears...mannerism....she has zero polish roots.

I usually distinguish Slavic look like Polish, Chech, Slovakian. I always thought that I look Polish but my first job in UK was customer orientated and some people asked me if I was Italian...Spanish (I have brown eyes and slightly dark complexion) ....no one asked me if I was Polish. I remember one man asked me if I'm Scottish - I guess it was my accent :-)

@Tacitus

How this analogy works with Europe?

Not so many guns in circulation in Europe but still few nasty terrorist attacks.....

We have polish saying 'odwracanie kota ogonem' which matches very well your analogy.

I thought that historically every country was created to have borders-army to support it and independence. Don't you see danger with uncontrolled influx of people without any ID, lying about their nationality.....just influx, influx with no end ???????
