Life / What should parents and schools in Poland do to discipline flippant children? [16]

It's it me or does this guy just want to argue to go off thread ?
He follows me around this Forum like a lost puppy.

and thats when the belt comes out.........or worse..

Then you should be arrested Boy.

my little girl was told last week at school that she couldn't go to the toilet and that she shouldn't be a baby, she has a bladder infection and came home with wet knickers,

What an incompetent parent not letting the teacher know this in advance.
Why would a parent shame his child that way in front of her whole class.
You may as well have spanked her instead of the life long shame that you caused her.
You are the one that should be punished with a good boot in the butt.
Now for the love of the Polish Forum can we get back on thread and STAY on thread.
Case in point:
How many times do you have to be told this ?
See how the lack of a good crack on the b-hind when you were about two years old
might have helped developed your listening skills to have some manners and respect.

If a teacher lays a fcuking hand on my little girl they'll feel my hand.

Isn't that an oxymoron ? LOL

Smacking advocates are from the stone ages.

.......you old knuckle dragger you.

First thank you DominicB as I got you mixed up with Shaman.
Thank you for reposting it.
And thank you Shaman for your explaination.
Now let's quit sensationalizing with the word smack with the word spank.
I don't mean smack in the face, I mean a spank on the butt to get a kids attention.
I firmly believe after five or six years old it's to late to spank a kid on the butt.
If they haven't been taught by then it's to late.
And when doing so you only use the palm of your hand, not a stick, not a belt, not a paddle.
Does that help clarify my meaning of spanking a child ?
Even with the dangerously uninformed liberals ruining our schools most of my family and friends
still spank at home.

Good grief Shaman, your first post was one of the best posts that I have ever read on the Polish Forum
yet it got deleted for SOME ODD REASON.
Your second one got to stay. Hmmmm
Maybe because you agreed with me that a swat on the butt never hurt anyone. (Besides their feelings)
Your post balanced the opinions out FROM POLISH PEOPLE here.
Now the thread reads very bias in favor of no swats on the butt.
I wonder what the moderator who deleted your post views are on the subject ? Urg !

Do parents & public schools believe in corporal punishment in Poland.
What are the laws in Poland regarding spanking a child.
What would you do to discipline a child ?

Talking, explanations using examples, reasoning Right, that works well with a three year old.
The old reap what you sow works pretty good tooRight, that works well with a five year old

Abstinence of things which they will missPAleeeeeez
Maybe fear tactics without the physical punishmentEven a dog can figure that out after three times
The old fashion way worked (a good crack on the B-hind gets their attention), your way is obviously failing. Just look what it has created.

No no Billy, don't do that again or you won't get dessert. Right, that is a powerful incentive.

When they get out on their own they can't cope with reality or support themselves so they move back into daddy & mommy's basement.

And when mommy & daddy die or throw them out they have to go on welfare because they have been hani capped by stupidity.

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

and you cannot carry concealed weapon in any other state other then the state that issued you a permit

Not true pigsy, most states honor my C.C.W. (Carry & Conceal Weapon) I can carry in almost all states legally.

I have a permit

You do not have a C.C.W. permit. All you have is a permit to own. Big difference.

.It can be only carried in person unloaded when im going to the range or target practising at an designated area

Yup and I can carry mine loaded just about anywhere I want to. In my truck, in public, under my jacket, not
you however, you would go to jail.
In fact in my state, like many, if it is not concealed you can carry it openly without a permit.

Then why do you even own one?

Because the second ammendment of the Constitution of the United States of America says that I can.
Now AGAIN.....Please quit hijacking these threads before they get closed again.
(Constructive criticism)
Go read the P.Forum rules pigsy about hijacking a thread.

Gun ownership is good for Poland in case invasions happen again - as they have so many times.

After what just happened in Ukraine there is no doubt that the Polish people would support such legislation of private gun ownership.
This is why no country has ever tried to set foot on American soil.
80 million people with guns that practice regularly.
If Poland knew the statistics about gun ownership in the U.S.A. they might better understand the propaganda the liberals try to feed them about the murder rate in America.

The United States is 3rd in Murders throughout the World.
But if you take out just 4 cities: Chicago, Detroit, Washington DC and New Orleans , the United States is 4th from the bottom, in the entire world, for Murders.

These 4 Cities also have the toughest Gun Control Laws in the U.S.
ALL 4 of these cities are controlled by Liberal Democrats.
It would be absurd to draw any conclusions from this data - right?
A law abiding gun owner doesn't murder people.
No doubt that the people of Poland would support such legislation for private gun ownership.

I think like most normal people we have no use for guns.

If you ever need the use of a gun and don't have one you will probably never need one again.

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

Poland in particular, people simply don't need a gun because almost nobody else has one. I do not fear being robbed or burgled by a gunman

Good points Roger.
I have a permit to carry one almost anywhere I want. Do I ? NO
Example, if someone robbed me or burglerized my home I WOULD NOT take my gun out from under my jacket.
I have been trained that the ONLY time you pull one out on someone is when you are going to use it.
A few hundred dollars or road rage is no reason to kill someone. Take it, my insurance will cover it.
They are not to be brandished to threaten someone with. You pull it, use it.
Now if someone was raping my wife, hurting my child or threatening my life, different story.
Otherwise like you said Roger,

to keep at home

Strictly home defense where I have no other place to retreat.
The gang bangers do not have a license to carry or even own a gun however they all have one.
The liberal media doesn't promote the stories about the good guys who shoot the bad guys first.
I just want the Polish people to understand the whole picture and not just the one the liberal manipulating media paints.
Thank you for sharing Roger as I have never been to Poland (yet) so that is why it seems so strange to me.

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

Well I am sure you know where I am going with this....

No but let's tell Poland about Chicago where gun ownership is illegal for example. (ha, google that)
They have 20 to 30 shootings EVERY WEEK END year around. Mostly with black people involved.
50 to 60 around the 4th of July holiday.
Does that statistic represent the rest of America fairly ? Hell no ! That is just one section of an American city.
But that is not what the Polish people hear by the liberal manipulated media as they paint a picture
of America that is very bias.
O.k., time to let others in on this as the market is about to open here and I have to get to work.

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

so what are you saying ? that this doesn't count?

Sure it counts roz but European's liberal media manipulate the whole picture as America has all
these killins with guns. True BUT 90% of them happen in just three cities and most of those are done
by blacks on white or blacks on blacks. Paint the whole picture so people know it is unfair to say that
all of America is full of gun killers.

If you want to blind us with statistics and facts, do your own research!

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

Not if you look at comparable countries it doesn't at all, for instance European and developed countires.

Really, then let's go the other way then......how many people got shot say in Montana last year where guns are legal to own compared with how many people got shot in England where guns are illegal to own ?

I think if you did some research you may surprise yourself. (anyone want to google that ?)
Bad people will ALWAYS have access to guns and will kill good and bad people with them.
Good people should be able to defend themselves against these bad people with a gun as you would be a fool to take a knife to a gun fight or wait twenty minutes for the police to show up to protect you.

The police carry guns to protect themselves, not you or me.

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

compared with the US where gun crime/shootings happen on nearly a daily basis...

Yes, IN THREE MAJOR CITIES by mostly black people. No racism here as statisics speak for themselves.
Take away those three major cities and shootings are no higher then most other countries.

To suggest that Poles would want guns if only they were educated by Americans is an insult.

Let's turn that around Roger, to suggest what Poles want, since you are a Brit, is an insult.

Why was the thread, The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? closed ?
After watching an unarmed European police officer get executed in cold blood because he didn't have a gun
to defend himself might change some minds on the issue.
By opening this thread the Polish people may be educated on what the liberal media manipulaton has done to

Law / USD shooting up so high for PLN [76]

China was not party to the Kyoto reduction agreement.

It shows as their air pollution is off the scale and the ground water is unfit to drink.

No the Euro is f@ucked in 2015

I beg to differ as the UK's economy is on a very very thin string also.
The Euro is at a nine year low while the U.S. dollar is at a nine year high.

the UK has a free floating currency and will be one of Europe's best performers in 2015

Europe's best performer maybe which isn't saying much as bad as Europe is hurting.
Most major currencies are floating currencies. So what is your point ?
A free floating currancy is a currency whose value is determined by the free market.
The value of a floating currency changes constantly depending on the supply and demand for that currency
as well as the amount of the currency held in foreign reserves.
However, floating exchange rates tend to be more volatile depending on the particular currency.
A floating currency may undergo currency appreciation or currency depreciation depending on market fluctuations.
I really don't think there will be any big demand for the GBP in 2015.

I also believe Poland is in deep trouble relying on US FDI increasing from 2016 as EU borders
are drawn in black pen.

Yeah like those black pen borders are just that. If Poland didn't rely on the U.S. Federal Defense Industry then who
would they rely on that would be capable of meeting their needs ? England ? Russia ? the Chi-coms ?
I predict that you will see the Euro drop as low as 106 in 2015 which won't be good for the zloty either.

News / Food producers from Poland should stop suffering from obliged sanctions against Russia [75]

I will agree to that as whenever I bought frozen oysters and tiger shrimps in US or Poland they are from bangladesh

Most shrimp in the U.S. comes from Thailand and the oysters come from Korea.

.I dont know about vegetables and meat though.

Foreign canned meat is much more healthy than American.
Why do you think ten and twelve year old girls are developing so young these days in America ?
Thanks to GROWTH HORMONES (GMO"S) by Monosato Inc.
Cows are fed styro foam pellets injected with growth hormones, fed GMO corn (corn is not a natural food to cattle nor is
styro foam pellets) all to put weight on fast for meat and to make cows give three times as much milk all for more $$$$$ profit.

(Not to mention milk in America is HORRIBLE for you)
Foreign cattle are grass fed naturally (not grain fed) and the meat actually has flavor not to mention what you are
putting in your body.
Vegetables in America are grown with Monosato's chemical fertilizers, Monosato's GMO seeds,
sprayed with Monosato's chemical pestisides (Round Up & ect.). Yummy
Ask again why autism and cancer rates have sky rocketed in the last two generations in America.
Did you know that three or four companies in the U.S. control all the food in the U.S. ?
So before the thread got hijacked...... back AGAIN to my question:
Would the Polish people prefer the GMO's that are used to grow grains and growth hormones injected
in the meats of America or the natural foods from Russia and Asia by joining the Eurasian Economic Union
also increasing Polands food exports to Russia ?

News / Food producers from Poland should stop suffering from obliged sanctions against Russia [75]

Firstly, Russian imports it's food. Especially chicken from America.

Firstly, this simply is not true. You can take your own time and google it.

Secondly, no trade agreement would allow GM food into the EU because it's unacceptable to EU consumers.

Secondly, you may be referring to GMO seeds because GMO's are in almost anything made with grains.

Thirdly, Russia and Asia are not known for their food quality..

Thirdly, no less then America with arsenic found in their orange juice, PBC's in their salmon from the great lakes, always
throwing out tons of tainted meats, growth hormones in their beef and chickens......all so yummy.
I do eat a lot of oysters, pineapple, ect. from asia that tests safe.
So Russia and Asia's food quality is just as safe as America's.

There is no impediment to Russia joining the EU, except that it's corrupt to the core and would need it's laws updating

Really, and just what government in the EU is not corrupt to the core ?
In fact what counntry in the world is not corrupt to the core ?
I think you may being a tad bias here weeg.
(Side Note: One of my favorite imported food is from Poland and that is the Pampa canned herring in mustard.
That with some crackers and a beer is a good lunch.)
So back to my question, would the Polish people prefer the GMO's that are used to grow grains and growth hormones injected
in the meats of America or the natural foods from Russia and Asia by joining the Eurasian Economic Union increasing Polands food trade to boot ?

News / Food producers from Poland should stop suffering from obliged sanctions against Russia [75]

O.k., we have discussed the political end of the food producers in Poland.
Now I would like to entertain the other side, the "best choice" for the Polish people.
Russia has now made a new offer starting the first of this year.
No doubt the EU is both vulnerable and sought after economically and geopolitically.
Russia is making no bones about an open proposal to the EU.
Essentially, dump the U.S. - don't join the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP),
but join the Eurasian Economic Union, which went into effect January 1st.
The Polish people are caught between a rock and a hard spot the way I see it.
Do they want to cave to their neighbor Russia who is offering natural foods grown in Europe/Asia or
the unapproved genetically engineered food that Monsanto is "forcing" North and South America
to grow ?
What a choice to have to make. I know how I would vote on that.
America treats their chickens for example with chlorine to keep them fresh. Yummy !
GMO's are starting to show up in human organs from the ones used in altering rice.
Not to worry as Monsanto says it's not harmful. (sarcasm)
Of course Monsanto who developed "Round Up" weed killer said that was safe also even
though it is linked directly to autism.
What killed all the bees that pollinate in the U.S. ? Monasanto linked it to the cell phones. (more sarcasm)
So if the Polish people either have to cave to East or the West in making a choice, your vote please.

Law / USD shooting up so high for PLN [76]

And what does that have to do with this thread ?
To get back on thread here.................
quote by Pigsy:

I am wondering to cash the $s or wait for it to go up more,not that anyone can predict but anyone have any ideas if it will keep on going up or its at its peak?

The U.S. dollar is now at a nine year high.
Demand for the dollar goes beyond just the weakness of the euro, the softness of the Chinese economy, the weakness of oil prices and their impact on a many currencies, the emerging market funds, all add up to a stronger dollar.

The euro dollar could still continue the downslide especially if the ESB goes ahead with quantative easing. (QE)
This will not only be limited to the euro but also the Zloty.
quote by CMS:

The government normally buys a load of zloty at the end of the year for political reasons - that will strengthen the zloty a little for a few days but in january i expect 3.65

I would have to agree with you that the zloty will be very close to that in January if not more.

are you aware of the US national debt, its massive dude, by far the largest on the world.

Thank our Community Disorganizer for that. I don't think that has much to do with the value of the U.S.D. however.
I think the strangle hold that OPEC had has finally been broken.
I would have to say that the E.U. will not feel any relief with the U.S.D. exchange rate in the first quarter at all.

China's steel production has slowed way down because they have polluted the enviroment with deadly toxins.
This will help level the playing field with all the enviromental laws that America's are required to follow that
China has ignored. In doing so it made it tuff to compete.
Now that China is moving their steel production to South Africa so they can clean up the disaster they caused
in their country the U.S.D. will become even stronger.

quote by Wroclaw Boy: the Dollar is being artificially inflated at the moment

I disagree strongly with that statement.
Our economy is finally starting to show solid growth where the E.U. is not.
In such case the exchange rate of the U.S.D. will only widen the gap.

quote by W.B. It doesn't have much to do with Gold prices but as for weakening other currencies this is short term, the Dollar is being artificially inflated at the moment as a result of oil being at a four year low.

I totally disagree with your rational here Wroclaw Boy.
Oil's crash is being misinterpreted by many investors such as yourself.
Let me para phrase and condense an article that explains it best.
The MAIN STORY is the $9 TRILLION US Dollar carry trade.
Drilling for Oil, producing Oil, transporting Oil are extremely expensive processes.
This means unless you have hundreds of billions of Dollars in cash lying around you're going to have to borrow money.
Borrowing US Dollars is the equivalent of shorting the US DOLLAR.
If the US Dollar rallies, then your debt becomes more and more expensive to finance on a relative basis.
In this scheme, a US Dollar rally is Oil negative.
Oil's collapse is predicated by one major event: the explosion of the US Dollar carry trade.
Worldwide, there is over $9 TRILLION in borrowed US Dollars that has been ploughed into risk assets.
Economies that are closely aligned with commodities (all of which are priced in US Dollars) are getting demolished too.
Just about everything will be hit as well.

quote by W.B. i would personally change your money today at 3.48, don't think its likely to go much higher and i would be surprised if it stays at this rate for very long.

What is "very long" ? I can see things getting a lot worse for the E.U. as the U.S.D. continues to strengthen.

Most of the "recovery" of the last five years has been fueled by cheap borrowed Dollars.
Now that the US Dollar has broken out of a multi-year range, you're going to see more and more "risk assets" blow up.

Oil is just the beginning, not a standalone story.
If things really pick up steam, there's over $9 TRILLION worth of potential explosions waiting in the wings.
Imagine if the entire economies of both Germany and Japan exploded and you've got a decent idea of the size of the potential impact on the financial system.

Life / Cannabis / Weed in Poland... How much does marijuana cost per gram and how easy is to get it? [355]

Do I promote weed ? No
However it seems if Poland would legalize it that it would bring billions of $$$$$ to the economy.
The stoners are going to smoke this crap regardless so why not tax it and build schools and colleges
with the tax money.
WoW, the only country in europe that it is legal would draw tourists up the the yang yang to get a puff
to get stupid.
Look at what it has done for Colorado in the U.S.A.
Like they say in Jamaica, "the government can take away everything from us except our weed and our music."
ie: in Jamica you can possess 2 ounces on person and smoke on all private property.
Ganja cost about $20 an ounce there for the high grade.
" A proclamation was issued today, up to 99 years in jail for illegal possession and sale,
how can they think they are right when they are wrong, I guess they have never been stoned.

The stronger the $ the lower gold goes and weakens other currancy around the world.

I noticed that,I wonder whats the math behind that?

That's hard to answer in a few words, but it's basically because gold and oil are always quoted in dollar prices.
Even if the price doesn't change in dollar terms, it will have become more expensive in euros or pesos,
if the dollar has been strengthening in relation to those other currencies.
So with much of the rest of the world seeing more expensive gold, especially India and Asia, demand falls off and the price goes down in all currencies.

If my investment charts hold true I should do very very well in the first quarter.

and if you think $1 to 3.49 is bad try Jamaica where it is $1 to 120.
I blame it on global warming as the world doesn't need so much heating oil anymore so
the price of oil is dropping. Supply and demmand theory.
