USA, Canada / Polish man's visit a nightmare - Welcome To Canada [65]

If you follow the Robert Dzienkanski case you will know that the RCMP are now facing charges for what they did to that poor man

They should be criminally charged!!

News / Poles are able to forgive their enemies - how noble. [68]

Somebody should wake them up and tell them that WW2 has ended 66 years ago.

The war may have ended,but I can assure you,the effects of it haven't. The scares from the brutality that was inflicted have been passed down from one generation to the next. 66 years ago- depending on your age is one or two genetations ago (my grandparents) and Poland has just begun to heal....after the Germans it was the Russians- Freedom is still new,the wall fell in 1989.

And don't forget the other part of the Lord's prayer

Taketh they camera
maketh sure that thy taketh a photograth,
to showeth to the rest of the world
Be sure to stroketh thy vanity once in a while
So that the world seeth what a good person you are.

Vanity of Vanities.

Love it!! LOL!!

Life / Racism in Poland - the future [441]

I haven't read every single post that is in this thread,so should I repeat something that has been previously said,my apologize. I have been asked many times about race relations in Poland (I live in Canada but am of Polish decent) I do not think as a whole Poland/Polish people are racist,I think they are passionate about their heritage and culture and very protective of it,which is quiet understandable- after 2 major occupations of Poland and fighting for independence and freedom,I think it's understandable the thought of others questioning or attempting to alter the Polish way of life may be met by resistance.

In every multi-cultural society there is always going to be cross cultural miscommunication,but I don't feel that they are any more prevalent in Poland then here in Canada or in the U.S
