News / Abortion still under control in Poland - part 2 [177]

Since women are the majority, they can elect all-women Sejm

There is sth wrong with your counting skills. How can a majority a little above 50% can attain 100% result at the ballot???

News / Should Poland pay for gas in rubles? [185]

Hey, imperial Russians and Putin lickers, what do you think of this?:
Europe bids farewell to Gazprom. "Russia and its blackmail have found themselves in a deep economic hole." Expert exposes the defeat of Putin's pride
The Russian supplier has turned gas into a tool for political pressure and blackmail. It has broken almost all of its signed contracts and agreements. It refuses to pay penalties for violating its trade obligations. Now, however, the Russians must pay the price. Putin's decisions have led to a collapse of Russian gas exports and bankruptcy of Gazprom, writes Mikhail Krutikhin, a Russian expert on the energy market.

News / Abortion still under control in Poland - part 2 [177]

Rightist PiS candidate, Karol Nawrocki, declares that if he becomes president, he will not sign a law allowing abortion. He will not even agree to return to the so-called abortion compromise.
No previous words of the PiS-supported presidential candidate caused such a sharp reaction from some women in the Parliament.
- He showed all women the middle finger - comments Sylwia Bielawska, MP of the Civic Coalition. - Mr. Nawrocki's words prove that he has the safety of women in deep disregard - says Magdalena Biejat, vice-marshal of the Senate from the Left. - This is already extreme and very dangerous - assesses Monika Rosa, MP of the Civic Coalition.


Excellent!!! Now we know the name of the first candidate who is going to lose the elections. Due to women`s votes.

forget my question?

I didn`t forget your question coz I said 100 million.

But I heard from Feniks and Atch that you regularly forget their questions.
When are you going to straighten your negligent approach out??

Travel / Transport adventures in Poland [99]

a Pole has run over a German policeman to death with a stolen car.

In the past, even thieves had their code of decent behaviour. Today they are too americanised.
That lowlife will be charged with murder and let him spend 20 years in prison. There he might learn the code at last.

History / Modern myths and legends about communist past in Poland [250]

only the Pole

Silesian Vladislau, to my best knowledge, played by that action film actor, Bronson. And their commander, too, played by Lee Marvin.
That film was so late on the screen in Poland because it was colour while all Polish war films from 1960s and early 1970s were black and white.

There's enough of them for the dirty dozen.

Amasing you alluded to that superb war movie. Coz I was going to mention it as a certain record holder.

they were imported some time after the original release, even a few years.

In case of Dirty Dozen, a few lasted about 10 years. I remember watching it in the cinema in late 1970s while it had been made in late 1960s.

Off-Topic / Toilet seat manners of British and Polish males [42]

Stupid Americans pay, wise Poles/Polesses don`t

It means wise Poles/Polesses don`t have to pay property tax in Poland like Americans do. Ha!!!!
Well, yes, they do, but it is peanuts. E.g, I pay about 80$ of country tax yearly for our 2.5 acres farm.

News / Will Poland help defend Greenland against US Imperialism [333]

The whole idea proposed by President elect Trump is so ludicrous

Imagine John F Kennedy or Jimmy Carter acting so stupidly.
Americans must be really twice dumber than in the past if they elect such a leader for themselves today. Is it in the polluted water they drink?????????????

Life / In need of good Polish jokes about Polish culture, people, etc [238]

Sławomir Mrożek, a famous writer and dramatist, once cracked a joke in early 1980s during the acute economic crisis :
How can we improve the current situation in Poland?
Declare war on the US and surrender the next day.

Off-Topic / Coup in South Korea [44]

Their forum was set up to promote LGBT and Liberalism

No, it wasn`t. It was set up to promote the knowledge of Poland in the world. They can`t be blamed that various maniacs like Joker feel at home here.
Or, actually, they can if they don`t suspend members who frequent the forum with the sole intention to bicker.

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

a soldier of the 18th Mechanized Division c, after arbitrarily leaving the camp area with his service weapon, fired shots at a civilian vehicle and then took refuge in a nearby forest," we read in a statement by the Operational Command on the X portal.

The Garrison Military Court in Olsztyn has accepted the prosecutor's request and imposed a three-month arrest on a 24-year-old soldier who, under the influence of alcohol, shot up a civilian car in Mielnik. Daniel H. is suspected of attempted murder, criminal threats and exceeding authority.

Travel / What is the weather like in Poland where you are now? [211]

much snow for winter. Today also

Not really. The last time I drove to school through snow tunnels higher than my car was in 2002. I arrived at the school and kissed the door knob coz the facility was closed that day due to elements. They hadn`t notified me about the closure.
I read an article claiming that the more snow in the USA, the less of it in Poland. Ocean currents are involved in this phenomena.
