UK, Ireland / "Strange " English language.. [169]
Exactly my point from before, Feniks! The West Country accent is probably the closest
in Great Britain to North American Standard, with the exception of New England such as Boston,
New York (especially Brooklynese) or deepest Deep South.

Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2873]
One shootout only begets others, much like with violence itself.
We all at some time have been violent or hurtful in pursuit of
either self defense or defense of a loved one, perhaps too a stranger.
And yet in the end, it's nothing to be proud of... merely a sign that humans
are simply higher animals, though animals nonetheless.

Language / Terms of endearment in Polish [216]
Polish has numerous diminutives used in everyday speech!
It's one the of the things which makes it such an attractive language.
English doesn't really have that. For example, in Polish "Tadziu, chodz tu!" = Teddy, dear. Come over here.
We need to add an extra term of endearment, whereas in Polish, the diminutive form picks up the slack,
so to speak:-)

History / Honoring - Otto Schimek [21]
There were several such instances of true conscientious objectors. A pity their stories aren't more well known.
Although Wiki claims otherwise, one never knows what right wing, pro-Nazi infiltrators can edit certain sites and
spew their misinformation!
