News / Was Charlie Kirk popular in Poland? [601]

There is opportunity everywhere in the US if you look for it and make the sacrifices required to become successful

If it's that easy then why, according to what's been written here about you by others, did you feel it necessary to commit fraud, grand larceny etc , and spend time in prison for it. You made money by stealing from others and then have the gall to come here and suggest that it's easy to make money if you work hard. Then you move to Poland and carry on with scams.

values of Charlie Kirk

I'm pretty sure he didn't encourage criminal activity.

tariffs won't work?

If they're that effective then Trump shouldn't be cutting them on over 200 food products. Prices just keep going up for Americans.

Travel / Advent weekend in Kraków – looking for local tips [6]

If I was in Kraków over the Xmas period I would go out of my way to see Szopki Krakowskie. These are miniature nativity scenes of historical places in Kraków such as Wawel castle. If your girlfriend is into architecture this way well appeal to her. I only wish I could go to see them as they look absolutely amazing!

On the first Thursday of December the szopki are brought to the main square where judging takes place. The winner is announced 3 days later and the szopki are displayed in the Museum of History (Krzysztofory Palace), also in the main square, until the end of February. You would probably have to book tickets to see them.

Here are a couple of links explaining more about them:

News / Poland's aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 26 [1183]

Nazi facist witch hunt? Illegal migrants are illegal.

Seems that way to me. The impression the US government would like to give is that they are all drug dealers/gang members/scum that need deporting, but employers are up in arms that hard working agricultural, healthcare, and hospitality workers who have been there for decades are being indiscriminately removed and deported.

By all means deport criminals and control the border to get a grip on immigration, but I think individual circumstances need to be taken into account for those that have been hard working and productive members of society who have made a positive contribution to the US. Rounding people up like cattle for mass deportation is not unlike events in WW2.

Before long y'all gonna have huge gaps in the market that will be hard to fill.

It takes a very special kind of impudence to tell anyone in the USA - a country build by immigrants stealing the land of natives - that they are there illegally. xD

Well said.

Anyway, back to the war. I came across this song that I hadn't heard for years the other day. 40 years old and different leaders, but sadly, as relevant today as it was back then.

Crippling the economy? Trump threatened to cut funding to New York if he won.

Sounds more like a dictatorship than a democracy.

News / Was Charlie Kirk popular in Poland? [601]

Context.... helpfully left out by Feniks

I presumed posters would click on the link provided to view the snopes fact checked Charlie Kirk video and transcript. Thought that would be easier than copy/pasting the whole interview. For anyone that missed the link:

x.com/snopes/status/1968465095828160630

the baby could be delivered without harming the mother.

A child giving birth to a child. How is that not harmful? It would be a high-risk pregnancy to start with and completely damaging to her mentally and emotionally. It isn't just the birth process that's risky, someone that age is more likely to go into labour early putting both her and the baby's life at risk. It's insane that Kirk would even consider it.

Anyone advocating something like that has a screw loose in my opinion.

I don't understand why you think the context helps Kirk in any way.

I'd say it's largely irrelevant. He was asked a direct hypothetical question and he gave his answer.

no woman should be forced to endure that, and no child should have to know they were a product of a criminal act.

But your hero is advocating that for a child, not a woman.

an example (in the form of a quote, in context) of anything he said that was unreasonable....

I found this to be unreasonable and I would argue that it is divisive but I guess that depends on your view of abortion.

x.com/snopes/status/1968465095828160630

The people who rejoice or celebrate the death of a father and husband have no place in society.

You keep banging on about this but not a single person on this forum has rejoiced or celebrated his death. You, however, have no problem in wishing ill will towards PF members:

@cms neuf
I personally wish you a slow and painful death from the worst of cancers

I think you need anger management classes to be honest.

News / How will Polish-American relations change if Trump is elected president again? [812]

I am telling the truth

Your interpretation of the truth. I don't agree with it.

It doesn't mean such women do not exist.

I think they're the exception and not the rule. Maybe they're more prevalent in the US as this is the kind of stuff that the PF Americans post.. Or maybe it's just that you all don't like women too much because that's the impression I'm getting.

No woman needs space for herself; that is a lie.

Bollox! How would you know not being female? I certainly do. I love having time to myself to unwind. It would drive me nuts to have people around me all the time.

I don't like feminism because it is Marxist-based, a nasty ideology that teaches women to hate men.

You're sounding just like Novi now.

I don't know of any women who are men-haters, myself included. I think many women wish men would pull their weight more around the house, helping with kids etc but that's a very long way from hatred. Maybe you know some extreme types but I think your idea of feminism is largely a myth.

It is a similar case when a modern woman claims she needs to 'find herself'; it translates to she wants to look for a new dick.

Or maybe she just needs some space and time for herself. Not everything is about sex.

I had fewer problems pulling women than you average Joe.

Course you did ;)

Travel / 12 month car insurance for cars on UK registration [4]

Does anyone know if this is still available

This company offers cover for up to 365 days. Price will depend on your car and driving history:

Saga used to do this but no longer do

They still do with Saga Select or Plus levels of cover:

News / Was Charlie Kirk popular in Poland? [601]

Kirk was only 1 million times more influantial than those two.

So his life mattered more?

Current and former state legislators from both parties and other elected officials were among the 1,500 people in attendance.[

She was an American politician and lawmaker whose death was equally as shocking as Charlie Kirks. Out of respect and courtesy, one would think that Trump would have attended the funeral, but he was apparently playing golf at the time. Biden and Harris did attend.

aside from that, there is a lot of truth in it

Well I have to hope that it's not from the male point of view in that satirical sketch...otherwise there's no hope for you....

It's not as if he chose weak opponents for a reason.

After seeing some of his debates I would say that he liked to win, which is much easier if you have a weak opponent.

A serious question for the PF Americans.

Why is it that the assassination of Melissa Hortman and her husband earlier this year didn't receive anywhere near the same degree of outrage as that of Charlie Kirk? Not only that, but Trump and Vance didn't even bother attending the funerals. To me, that shows a total lack of respect. Thoughts?

Because women can talk BS for hours, and they often do not know when to finish. Waffling on and on about nothing

You could equally be talking about some of the PF men with that statement.

When I think of you, Iron, this Harry Enfield sketch comes to mind 😂

I think Charlie Kirk was only attractive to neophytes and people generally not very sophisticated.

My observations from watching a few clips of him is that many he debated were very young and with limited life experience. Therefore, his opponents were easy to verbally defeat because they were lacking in skilled debate. He also had a tendency to talk over women and interrupt before letting them finish.

Some of the questions were obviously known in advance to him as he was reading from notes he'd prepared.

turning fence sitters toward Trump

Considering Kirk was all about the family unit being the most important thing, I find this strange given that Trump has 5 kids from 3 different marriages. He's hardly an advert for matrimonial bliss.

Parliamentary prayers and street shrines across Europe prove otherwise.

Because he's become a Christian martyr since his death. People are horrified because he was killed for his views.

Prior to his assassination he was largely unknown outside the US.

In a Wetherspoons, people are drinking not in a public space but in a private establishment.

Yes, but I was addressing your point of westerners drinking in the evenings when it's clear they also drink in the day.

you are full of sh*t.

Predictable response when you don't like the answer. If you don't like Poland then leave and stop whining.

Only in Poland is it normal to start the day with alcohol.

Bollox. You're talking about alcoholics who will start the day with alcohol regardless of country.

The biggest difference between Polish and western drinking cultures is this: westerners drink in the evening and often at bars.

Try going into a Wetherspoons in the day. Full of drinkers.

I can guarantee that every time I walk down my local high street, there will be drunks sat somewhere either drinking or fighting with other drunks.
