Life / Do Polish People steal a lot? [330]

I went to a Polish wedding last night and watched these old ladies cramming
pastries into thier purses, they practically took the whole table with them.

I know every race has thier thieves, it was just a question how common place it
was with Poles

USA, Canada / American people attitude towards Poles in the USA [98]

We have the biggest concentration of Polish people outside of
Warsaw here in Chicago, and I welcome my Polish friends.

The British seem to have a huge problem because all I been reading over the
the last year is how bad it is now since the EU trade agreement.

Enlightenment me:

dont be afraid to answer

USA, Canada / American people attitude towards Poles in the USA [98]

Some English views shown on here........well, yeah they're not the majority view

Some people believe what they see on t.v, and take it fact....rozumiem

But it has caused some problems in terms of the policing, health service, schooling etc

Yes we have the same problems here with 12 million illegal mexicans.
they bring drugs,gangs and put a strain on our society.

Most Polish come here to make a better way of life and contribute

The UK has never experienced such immigration in such a short period of time before.

I can understand that with the new trade EU agreement

So everybody is all legal then?

We have 12 million Mexicans already here getting a free ride

I know this girl that overstayed her visa and went back to Poland because her mother
was sick ,now she cant come back for 10 years

You are only seeing a very small minority on here posting negative views. Small and insignificant I would say.

True..LIR its all people from the UK complaing on this forum

I havent seen one American on this forum yet that had anything about bad

about the Polish living here in the States

USA, Canada / American people attitude towards Poles in the USA [98]

Our infrastructure and education and health services are creaking badly.

Were at the brink over her too, my Insurance rates keep going up

100% legal from the A8 EU memebers. Bit more difficult with the latest EU members. Poles have a full legal entitlement to work here

and I assume alot of them came and worked cheaply
thats the same problem we have with the Mexicans

The thing is the Polish that come here a dont try to sponge of the goverment
they just want to work and make a good life for themselves.

I dont like after they been here 20 years and still cant cant speak English

USA, Canada / American people attitude towards Poles in the USA [98]

Bottom line is that Polish people are to me very welcome

Ya I always like Polish people my ex GF got me man:)

Her mother can speak somewhat English and her father still after 30 years cant
carry a conversation at all?

immigrant communities on the other hand who have got it down to a fine art. But if I name them I'd be called a racist bigot. T

I think were in the same boat bro, thanks for sharing your opinion

And we don't see them committing major crimes in the streets. There's nothing to complain about. They're not bothering anyone.

I agree, the crime in other ethnic neighborhoods is way higher than here in Polonia

Yes this could have a lot to do with it. Also the fact that we like to think we're multi-cultural in the UK but compared to the USA we aren't really.

Thanks PD, I can drive from one side of my city and pass through
Little Korea / Asian
Greek town
Ukrainian village
Chinatown
Little Italy
Latino
Irish/ celtic
German
Polonia
to name a few

cant we just stop all these anti Polish threads

I just copied English people attitute towards poles thread
then changed the name of the country

This discussion is about American attitudes to Polish people in the USA?
If we widened the debate to include Canada, might someone actually mention the Western side of the Atlantic for a change?

Thanks donkey you are very observant:)

How were Polish people seen in America before the end of Communism

To tell you the truth I dont think many Americans payed much attention to it
