No. Nobody is being shot in Poland. Poland is Not America,


No. Criminals do not use guns to commit crime in Poland.


Nobody is being killed by criminals in Poland. Crimes of passion or suicide is it.

They are the thinnest children in Europe, but there you go again thinking America is Poland.

This is all nothing to do with Poland. Mods can this thread be moved to off topic?

The chance of dying in a car accident is 10,000 times more likely that the chance of suffering a criminal death by gun fire in Poland.

The chance of being injured in a car is hundreds of thousands of times more likely than gun crime in Poland.

So why the **** are you not demanding that cars are banned and refuse to leave your home ?

Defense from who or what? There is NO chance that any criminal will go to a house armed with a gun. I have never spoken to a European who fears armed criminals and feels the need to be armed to 'defend' themselves.

Here's my brother-in-Laws gun collection. Notice the lack of personal protection weapons. I offered to buy him a pistol as a present, his response was why, WTF use is that for? There is nothing in Poland that requires protection from.

He got a license, he loves guns and can buy a pistol, but there is absolutely no reason for him to do so.

Agreed, all those weapons are very expensive and needs correspondingly expensive training. Anything less and its pointless.
So the idea that allowing citizens to possess small arms to 'defend the country' is ridiculous.

Thanks for the update, thats an encouraging and enlightening story.

Afghanistan isn't a good example, the terrain is extremely difficult for modern military to operate, its very good for poor armed insurgents to operate.

Poland, on the other hand, is perfect tank and helicopter country. Poorly armed militia is useless in this situation, we need very well armed professionals and well trained militia. Artillery, mortars, anti-tank guide missiles, SAM's are the minimum.

Polands professional army are short of their needs. There isn't much for a Home Army and leaving them to fight with the 'right to bear arms' weapons (rifles and pistols) is pointless and suicidal.

Not that its relevant, but in Poland its doesn't happen now.

Yes. I was aware.

Straight from the Russian talking points, thanks Putin.

Your lack of basic knowledge of Polands history is f***ing insulting.

Language / Learn Polish or Russian [86]


You seem to be completely unaware of Russia's policy of claiming ownership of Russian speakers and the countries that they reside. This was the justification of the invasion of Ukraine, Georgia and the threats made against Belorussian, Kazakhstan and the Baltic states.

Russia will 'protect' Russian speakers by invading their host countries, that is Russia's often stated policy and it matches the claims made by Hitler to justify the invasion of Austria, Czechoslovakia and Poland.

Why do you think Nato has beefed-up security in the East?

Language / Learn Polish or Russian [86]


Russians in Russia should speak Russian, other nations should stick to their national language unless they want to be invaded. Belorussian, Ukraine and Kazakhstan are moving away from Russian because of the threat.


The point is that English is the second language of choice for young Poles and those emigrated. Not Russian.

News / An article: NATO is the American occupation of Poland and Europe, by Mateusz Piskorski [233]

Ruski no like that?

Language / Learn Polish or Russian [86]


Its a language not an ethnic group. Thats why the language should be eradicated, because a fascist state have used the Russian language to claim ownership of Russian speakers.


Most are in the UK and Ireland and most speak pretty good English

Language / Learn Polish or Russian [86]



Hating a language is justified when that language is used as a justification on invasion by a fascist dictatorship.Which is why both countries are moving away from Russian due to the threat to their security from the Russian empire. And yes it can be eradicated the same way it was imposed - by force.

Unless you get him to learn English, your, his and your child's life is destroyed.

Russian is being eradicated in both countries due to the filthy association of the Russian threat to those countries.


What wrong with having a hatred of Russian? there is NOTHING good about the country. Its a wasteland and will never improve.

UK, Ireland / Baby father doesn't know English but wants to go for the British citizenship [76]

Don't speak to him in Polish, let his father do that. That way the baby will be bi-lingual.

Who said you will be allowed in Poland? As a non-EU citizen you won't have any rights. Maybe Poland would give you a one month holiday visa, nobody knows.

You would have to learn Polish if you wanted to live and work in Poland.

You would have to, as an unskilled builder he would return along with several hundred thousand other Poles and there will be no work. Either go to another EU country (you would have to learn that language) or sit at home in his village drinking vodka from your 500pln a child.

Have another baby, 1000pln vodka money and he is sorted.

Poland shares a border with Russia, yet its trade ties are tiny and falling all the time. Russia is not important or geopolitically relevant outside its small mind..

UK, Ireland / Baby father doesn't know English but wants to go for the British citizenship [76]

Damn right he has to, he's unworthy of Poland if he gets deported and leaves his child behind.

UK, Ireland / Baby father doesn't know English but wants to go for the British citizenship [76]

Yes, even then.

Language / Learn Polish or Russian [86]

Nope, is a useless language unless you want to visit a impoverished dictatorship.

And its a disappearing language, the population who speak it is shrinking by 10million per decade.

UK, Ireland / Baby father doesn't know English but wants to go for the British citizenship [76]

He has to PROVE he has lived here for 5 years, with restrictions on when he was out of the UK. a record of dates in and out is required.

Has to have good character (referees required), no criminal record and paid all taxes etc.
Has to pass the English test unless he is over 65 or brain damaged.

Then he can get citizenship. Being the father of your child isn't relevant as you aren't even married. After Brexit, I expect we would leave/dump the EHR (European Human Rights) so any rights would entirely up to the UK government.

And the one thing that will block citizenship and the right to stay is not speaking English - because it stops you taking part in and contributing to British society.
