Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1024]


No state recognised that illegal referendum. Crimea formally belongs to Ukraine. Just like Poland, occupied by Germans and Soviets during WW2, was still Poland, first to fight.

Genealogy / What are common Polish character traits? [425]

I mentioned being stubborn several times. Generally it is a positive trait if you live in a country like Poland surrounded by hostile powers.
However, when combined with the belief you always know better, stubborness can lead to tragic effects.

It was supposed to be a dream trip, but it ended tragically. Three Poles drowned while swimming in the waters off Arena Gorda Beach in the Dominican Republic. wa.
The tragedy occurred last Friday near one of the hotels in Bavaro. According to local authorities and witnesses, high waves were present in the area at the time, and a red flag was displayed on the beach. Despite the warning, the tourists allegedly crossed the buoys and were then pulled into strong currents intensified by the unusually high waves.

Comment:

There are very strong sea currents there. Standing in the water even up to your knees, you can feel the powerful force of the waves pulling you into the ocean. There are no lifeguards anywhere in the Caribbean. There is information about this at the entrance to the beach and flags on the mast.

News / Time to clean the swamp - dePiSification of Poland [324]


Here is an example of cleaning the PiS swamp in the judiciary.

The Justice Ministry is gathering data about all prosecution cases tainted with political pressure in PIS times.

A few years ago, when Donald Tusk party was still in power, radical nationalists organised a rally in Wrocław, full of hate speech and calls for murder against immigrants and the gov.
Certain female prosecutor decided to file a prosecution against the haters and bring them to justice. However, the gov changed and rightists took over. The prosecutor withdrew the charges and the case was closed though no new evidence appeared. For being so lenient, she was properly rewarded and her career in the local attorney department sky rocketed.

Now, she is going to undergo investigation for allowing PIS to breach the independence of the judiciary .

- The department received a request to consider initiating an investigation against the prosecutor for committing a crime under Article 231 of the Penal Code - confirmed in an interview with Onet the spokesman for the National Prosecutor's Office, Prosecutor Przemysław Nowak.
The provision on exceeding one's powers by a public official states that if the court finds such an official guilty - in this case, prosecutor Justyna Pilaczyk - may face a penalty of up to three years in prison.
However, its length may be increased to up to ten years if "the perpetrator commits the act in order to gain material or personal benefit".
And this is how the prosecutor's actions are assessed in the report by her current superiors. "It is impossible not to notice that after the issuance of the decision in question, the professional career of the prosecutor-referee gained momentum," they wrote in the report, enumerating Justyna Pilarczyk's subsequent promotions.

News / Mr President Joe Biden comes to Poland again [177]

Pity this thread is closed
https://polishforums.com/news/poles-feel-biden-85974/
coz it suits my post better

In his last interview as President, Biden reminisced and addressed Polish people in the US and Poland:

Emphasizing his close ties with Poland, Biden recalled in the interview that he is the only person to be named Person of the Year by both the Polish and Italian communities in the US.

At this point, he also mentioned growing up among people of Polish descent. My dad didn't have a job, we lived in an Irish Catholic neighborhood. I moved to Claymont, Delaware. I was made fun of because my last name didn't end with "ski". I'm serious. Claymont is a big Polish community - he said.

Then he was asked to address a few words directly to the Poles. - Stay strong - began the outgoing president. - I've done everything I can to give you everything you need to defend and stop Putin. And I'm very hopeful that we've given the new administration all the materials, information and resources that they need. I pray to God that they'll do what's needed , Biden said.

History / Poland: Her heroes and her traitors [239]

We are in a situation where the soon-to-be-resigned "president" Duda and the current PiS rightist opposition are trying to harm the Polish government and, consequently, Poland by all means. These people call themselves patriots. According to them, Poland is to be PiS` or fallen.
This is pure treason.
Tfu, PiS traitors! And nationalists and homo sovieticuses! Tfu on you!

Life / Polish patriotic music! [44]


Here is another one: We don`t have to die anymore but......



Excellent heavy metal rock. Combined with the scenes from 1920 Battle of Warsaw film.
We don't have to die anymore
And yet there's a scar in my heart.
Instead of looking at my country,
You mock the slogan "motherland"

Although so much blood has flowed
And tears have flowed from the eyes
Today the enemy still mocks Polish pride
Will its end ever come
The past days in pools of blood
And the sight of tears from mothers' hearts
When the son died for his country
This sight is foreign to you today

And the enemy treacherously bares its fangs
And rivers of Polish blood flow
You lose honor, language, speech
Saying that it is progressive
Patriotism is at the bottom
But the army of faith still stands
Fighting proudly face to face
Believing in the white Eagle sign

Of course not. I would never do such a disservice to Chopin. :):):)

Hint: Speaking French in old Poland can be compared to speaking French in England of 11, 12, 13th century. How and what namely?
The hintest of all hints: who spoke fekking French in non originally French countries at those times?????

Polish war film made in communist times.
The siege of Berlin. A Polish soldier enters a basement and shouts in Polish to German civilians hiding there: Is there anybody here??? hahaha
Then he spots the hiding Germans and points to a pretty woman: Komm, komm! Everybody thinks he is going to rape her. However, he expects her to take care of the baby his mates found in a pram in the street.
