UK, Ireland / Should I worry going to Ireland as a Pole? [37]

Ireland as a whole is very safe, much safer than the USA. Dublin has unique problems resulting from a huge underclass of teenage scumbags

That goes for the U.S.A. too Atch.
If you go to any Democrat run city in the U.S.at night by yourself, you are asking for trouble from the Black underclasss scumbags.

Their own upstanding people won't even go out at night.

and a very weak response to them by the courts.

Same here Atch, there is so many murders (33 in Chicago last week end) that the courts don't have time to prosecute assaults and when they do the punks get a slap on the hand.

And like parts of Ireland, where I live, I would feel safe walking down the streets in my hometown all night long by myself.
Thank you for your enlightening response, Atch.

UK, Ireland / Should I worry going to Ireland as a Pole? [37]

Have you been to Ireland yet?

NO !
It has become very dangerous place to go with foreigners being attacked.
A language teacher in Dublin has described the sorts of attacks experienced by some of her students in Dublin.
It comes after the US Embassy issued a security alert to tourists visiting Ireland following a number of media reports of attacks in Dublin.

Off-Topic / Let's talk about shoes [334]

I like my Creps the best year around.
Wear them out in the snow quite often.
They are very comfortable and they give your feet tremendous support.
The only problem with them is they don't last for more than six months or a year.
Most are made in China or Vietnam.

Law / Statistics of crime rates in Poland [44]

Was it the last place on this list?

No, no it was not, not by far.

What does it have to do with crime rates?

There is a high quality of life where there is little crime and vice versa

Thank you Alien, I couldn't have explained it better to her myself.

Law / Statistics of crime rates in Poland [44]

Cities ranked for the best quality of life put Wroclaw Poland at 100th in the world.
World ranking: 100
Another gem is Western Poland's Wroclaw.
Formerly called Breslau until 1945.
Quote:
Very near the capital, a side trip to Wroclaw means visiting a beautiful city too often overlooked and teeming with history, cafes and pretty little boutique shops.

Townspeople have come together in Market Square for generations.
This Gothic city center is covered in cobblestones and features a gorgeous town hall that has been converted into an art museum.

Another stat that surprised me, did you know that Poland hits the list at number #5 of the most sought-after countries in Europe to visit.

Poland is the third safest country in the EU, according to Eurostat, the EU's statistical office

One more reason I love Poland so much even though I have only been there three times. :;-)

Italy

Travel / Starting 2024 Visa's will be required to visit Poland from the U.S.A. [21]

This is not entirely true.

Of course it's not as I was being sarcastic for the sake of argument with Paulina.
She does like to knit pick at me so I entertain her with sarcasm.

Getting rid of American citizenship is horrendously expensive,

It would be easier and cheaper just to get citizenship in the E.U. and have dual citizenship.
Portugal has become a hot spot for people looking to quit their jobs and move abroad.
In order to get a Portugal passport, you need to participate in the Golden Visa program, which has several ways to qualify, including making a donation to Portuguese art and culture, investing in a business, starting a business or by buying real estate.

Doing that, one could enter Poland or the E.U.without an ETIAS.
Without getting snarky....Am I wrong Feniks ? lol

Maybe that's why you're worrying.

Why do you project such non sense as you are the one having the meltdown.
I worry about nothing because like you projected again that I have no intentions of coming to the E.U.

It is NOT, as you inaccurately put in your thread title, a visa.

Thank you for correcting me as I don't know what i would do without you. ((the Reb rolls his eyes sarcastically while laughing)
Both are a form of requirements for foreign travel.for over a billion travelers as in Either Ithar.

You're protesting now that Europe is doing the exact same thing your own country does.

That is because Americans always come back home to the Great United States of America while you Polish come to the Great United States of America and never go back home.

We had to make such vetting so we could find you and send you back home to Poland. :-)
So in essence it is just a money maker for the E.U.
And you seemed to skipped over my question of how many American tourists come to the E.U. vs. how may Europeans come to the U.S. each year.

Travel / What do people think about German people in Poland? [25]

They need to start drinking more water from the water pipes and quit drinking sparkling water from plastic bottles.
They don't drink enough water.
Why they call the water from the pipes 'sewer water' is baffling as it is clean, tastes good and the price is right.

If I came to the US it would cost me $21 for an ESTA,

Stop your moaning as you have spilled more than that on a good night out.
Besides, you have never been to Northern Michigan and it's doubtful you ever will.
Now before you got nasty and personal the topic was about another regulation to vet law abiding citizens to collect their personal information.
So please stay on topic and keep your snide remarks to yourself.
And like I stated, the camel is just getting his nose in the tent, in three years they will add six more personal question and in three more years six more personal questions until eventually only the bootlickers will stoop to them.

it will require all visitors who currently travel to Europe visa-free, such as citizens from the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand,

How about the dark countries ? Will it apply to them too or only those White countries ?

so the US is making money out of tourists too.

You are the Google queen here so tell us how many people from the U.S. travelled to the E.U. in 2022 and how many Europeans travelled to the U.S. in 2022.

Then we will do the math.
Europe is swarming with American tourists this summer.
I don't see that many Europeans here in the U.S. this summer.

Travel / Starting 2024 Visa's will be required to visit Poland from the U.S.A. [21]

Another foot in the door to collect a $ tax $ that always starts out low ($8 U.S.) and will increase every year once implemented.
This will include all countries in the E.U. for upstanding American citizens to enter, not just to enter Poland.
The new regulations are called the European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS).
When the system launches in early 2024, it will require all visitors who currently travel to Europe visa-free, such as citizens from the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, will need to apply for travel authorization and receive approval prior to their departure.

How many extra millions $$$$ will this put in Europe's back pocket from the U.S. alone and for what ?
The bio metric information being collected is already on our passports.
Compare that to America's open borders where anyone can come in for free without a visa or passport.

Law / How to pay Polish fines when you are not in Poland [10]

EU is not US.

It's not ? Goully !
And here the whole time I thought both Poland and Germany belonged to the E.U.
Now the way I would do it is just call the cop shop and ask them how to take care of it.

Law / How to pay Polish fines when you are not in Poland [10]

Now that is just genius, REALLY ! or did you just want to get into the conversation too ?
If you don't pay you could possibly be denied getting your German driver's license renewed too until your issue gets resolved.
The whole time the price of the ticket increases do to interest being tacked on every month.
They hope you will just forget about it so they can have even more control over you while collecting even more money from you.
My advice is to be responsible, stay on it and take care of it a.s.a.p.

Law / How to pay Polish fines when you are not in Poland [10]

After that forget about it

I would not forget about it.
I agree with the letter as proof (keep a copy with dates) and sent it registered with a return signature for proof of who signed for it.

Then when you get that receipt back of proof of service wait ten days and give the police department a call and ask them how to proceed.

Right at the start of the call first thing tell them that they are on a recorded line and ask the WHO you are speaking with because you are forgetful and want to be sure to do it exactly as instructed.

That really stymie's them so they can't just pass the buck and hoodwink you with bla bla bla and say that you were never told that or you must have misunderstood.

Thats how I would do it anyways.......
Good luck my friend

Off-Topic / Stock Market and Trading Talk [1011]

Gold stocks are starting to go up with this inflation.
Looks like they have room to keep going up.
I still like TESLA the best however.
In just the past three months it has moved up from $150 to $290.
That's a 93% move in 3 months !
The next 3 months won't be anything like that, but I think that it will make steady progress.
I just read that they are doubling the size of their plant in Berlin taking it from 500,000 cars per year to 1 million.
Now with Tesla's new goofy looking electric truck that just came out for the public their stocks almost have to go up.
Still time to get in.
What do you think cms ?

Life / Do colored immigrants in Poland function better than in Western countries? [256]

But this is a literal translation of a phrase used by the Polish

This may be true however if you were in downtown Chicago or Detroit and started calling Black people "Color" you might get an education from the school of hard knocks.

Ciemnoskóry would be acceptable in my opinion.

That right. I mean what does it matter?

In Poland probably nothing, in the U.S. it is like fingernails on a chalkboard as in talking uneducated Hillbilly smack like the smartest guy in the room here does every day.

I mean that troll Allien is trolling.

He just likes to show off his brilliance occasionally.

I called my Polish friend in Poland and asked him.
He said that yes, watermelon can be grown in Poland if the weather cooperates.
Being that Poland has such a temperate climate, it does not make it profitable to grow them large scale as you could end up with unfinished melons that never ripen.

The best watermelon I ever had came from Georgia and was a Rattle Snake something variety.
Man were those things juicy and sweet.
I think I paid $5 for two of them right out of the field which is equivalent to one hour of labor for the illegals that work the fields.

Life / Are Polish Women very promiscuous towards foreigners and refugees? [197]

I'm on trying to get you to understand that Polish women are no different than any other Western woman.
You keep referring to a very very small percentage of Polish women to sensationalize the vast majority of them which is simply not true.
You are now claiming to be Polish which is not true.
That is what pray I am on.

I'd like to get high too

We know, wine is the devils choice for you and a little smoke now and then so you can fantasize.
We have already established that years ago.
ie: how you have lived in Poland, how you speak Polish fluently, how you are a jew, how you are a college professor, how you are a linguistic, how you bought a $350 k condo for cash on the barrel head, how you have had romantic encounters with countless Polish and European women, and ect.

How did you encounter prostitutes or promiscuous women in Poland?

I find it very hard for that to have ever happened as he was only in Poland for ten days as an adolescent.
Your hallucinations will be overlooked but please quit degrading the Polish women here.

As a member of the affected nationality in question,

WHAT !
Since when did you become Polish ? :-/
First you pretended to be a Jew, then a German and now Polish.
Oh ja ja.

I/we realize how hard it must be to hear and to accept the "inconvenient truth".

What truth, your fantasy sexual projections might be true of the 1%.

I too would like to believe that those Brooklyn slum lords

How did you go from degrading Polish women to Brooklyn slum lords ?

(you simply wish nothing more than to make me look bad instead of accepting what sadly was, and hopefully
no longer needs to be as Poland becomes ever more a free enterprise society.)

You made yourself look bad by degrading Polish women with your sexual fantasy sensationalism that all Polish women hoard themselves because Poland was a poor country during the war.

I think you may be watching to many old war movies and reading to many fictional novels of the war that were made for cheap entertainment.

You weren't there to make such remarks, Mark., nor can you substantiate them as being credible.
Now knock it off
