Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns?

We kept telling the anti-gun people that it was just a matter of time before Poland gave in.
Poland has introduced mandatory firearms training for schoolchildren amid concerns over potential Russian aggression.
Quoting:
The new training will see children aged between 14 and 16 years old train with guns for up to an hour a week as the war in Ukraine continues to impact Poland's borders with both Ukraine and Russia.
The "Education for Safety" program will create one-hour weekly lessons conducted in school gymnasiums.
The training will involve laser-based technology to ensure safety, with no live ammunition being used.
The curriculum encompasses firearms handling, state security education, survival skills, tactical rescue, first aid, and cybersecurity.
Students will also be taught how to assemble and disassemble weapons.

This is long over do and about time for self preservation for Poland.

Next time try in English:

This is long overdue and about time for self-preservation for Poland.

It must be all the waves crashing over the bow of his yacht..lol Nice of him to cut his fakecation short to chime in on PF. It must be soooooo exciting!


Indeed. Trump wants Europe to fight their own battles from now on. Which is long overdue.

...just like an 18-month-long pregnancy...Time to let the bastard out and fetch for himself...

Military training with firearms is OK.
Gun ownership is a totally different matter. Do not confuse these two. One can train as a tank driver while in the army. Does it mean you can own and drive a tank as a civilian????? hahaha

Laser guns. No live ammunition will be used.


Take your own advice for once then. Your post #695 has little to do with the thread.

Not really. Military training with shooting practice was present in Polish schools decades ago, still in 1990s. Then they dropped it, probably due to lack of funds and to the false but very popular belief that Russia became civilised at last. So, we are sort of returning to old traditions. Nothing new. Still far from wide access to guns.

Poland is so lucky with that restriction on gun ownership. We don`t need US like massacres here.

Latest story:
"Today in the afternoon in the town of Mielnik (Podlaskie Province) a soldier of the 18th Mechanized Division carrying out tasks as part of the Safe Podlasie operation, after arbitrarily leaving the camp area with his service weapon, fired shots at a civilian vehicle and then took refuge in a nearby forest," we read in a statement by the Operational Command on the X portal.

"As a result of the search activities undertaken immediately, he was immediately captured by soldiers from the Mielnik Task Force. No third parties were injured in the incident. Initial findings indicate that the soldier was intoxicated," it added.

"The explanatory activities are being conducted by the Military Gendarmerie in Białystok," it was reported at the end.

Except for the Polish army...They have guns and the fact somebody may get hurt by accent or commit suicide means shlt - as it should should.

Half of gun deaths in the US are suicides. Good. It's very considerate to do it in your own bedroom instead of while flying a jumbo jet with 400 passengers right behind.

There should be an 800-get-lost line to assist...

Cars cannot be banned, but in Germany only 5 people died, the car was smaller, a passenger car, and in the USA the car was a large pickup truck.

Gun is just an injector. A guy who gets an injection loses the desire to harm the intended victim. Amazing how well it works...

Medical textbooks mention the head and torso as the best body parts ...

So your point is that Poland should ban big guns but little guns are o.k. ?

It would be some kind of compromise.

For Pete's sake, can Ameriacans stop pushing their view on others?
Can you get it into your tick skull that not every society dreams about guns all around?

no.... they mostly can't....


many realize that, and some.... don't or don't want to realize that

Come now! It is the right of all free-born men to carry at all times an XM307. Next thing you'll be saying that we don't have the right to own an M29 Davy Crockett!


My theory is that a great many American men believe everything they see on TV. So when they watch p0rn, they think it's a documentary and thus feel very under-endowed. To compensate for that they go out and buy a big gun. It's much the same reason why so many of them want to have huge trucks.

Your inferiority complex brings your jealousy out, Harry.
Those big trucks you are referring to cost $80,000 which is why you couldn't own one if you wanted to.
And notice how the hot girls love riding in them compared to being picked up for a date in your little tin U Go.
Oh wait, that's right, you don't own a car or a gun do you Harry, only a sling shot and an old fat tire bicycle. Hoot !

Well, some Americans are so stupid they think people will be impressed by them claiming to punch nuns in the face. When people are that stupid, it's easy to see why they would want to always carry a gun. In fact, some Americans are so stupid they think people will be impressed by them claiming to have given narcotics and liquor to teenage girls until those girls are unable to fight off their sexual advances. Frankly those people should be given guns, as they're so stupid they're highly likely to shoot themselves and thus improve society.

What a smart kid...I am sure that nun didn't touch him again. I like swift justice.


Yes, I can. A society that thinks cops are there to protect wants them to have guns. Was there ever a referendum in Poland to disarm cops?

So I have news for you...Cops DO NOT PROTECT. They come post fact to investigate how you died.

Great. Now can we move on and accept we don't want USA-like gun laws and view you for most part as gun freaks?

Don't ask. Tell.

US gun laws are fine. What's not fine is the US death penalty laws.

We don't have the death penalty. What we have is a cruel joke known as the death penalty. 30 years on death row and waiting for the next hearing...

Guns work exactly as they should. Just compare the murder rates inside police stations and outside. There is your proof.


So, how is your combat experience so far? Russians were so impressed that they published a story about you on RT.

If you god forbid got wounded, who will give a medal? U, P, or the US?

Stop twisting. The madly drunk soldier with mental problems was shooting at civilians. Now imagine that anybody can obtain a weapon. How many maniacs would roam streets to take out their life problems on people???

That's what happened to me.
A college girl forced me into ingesting illegal drugs and then raped me when I was unable to fight her off.
I felt so helpless as the bullets in my gun were already spent....you know how weak us men can get.
And like your incident of the young lovely putting capsules of cocaine up your azz admittedly and voluntarily because your nose was to raw to snort anymore.
That was just disgusting to say the least.
No wonder Poland doesn't allow guns to rapists and druggies such as yourself Harry.
Felons in the U.S. can not own a gun or be in possession of one either.

If guns means murders, police stations should be the killing fields. Also the gun stores and ranges.

The exact opposite is true. Those are the safest places in town.

There is a reason why anti-gun demagogues don't post "Gun Free House".

Is anyone arguing for that? Hell, even the topic stipulated something else. If you are clueless spare us your worthless opinion based on your ignorance and misplaced feelings.

The safest places on earth are where everybody has a gun. See gun stores and police stations. Duh!

Guns have nothing to do with murder rates. It's the skin pigment and distance to Russia.

Latvia - 2.5
Lithuania - 2.7

Iowa - 1.7
Utah - 2.0
DC - 33

US Virgin Islands (all black) - 50
Jamaica - 50

Even safer places are where no one has a gun.

You are a moron so I am wasting my time...

What the fvck...let me try one more time dealing with an imbecile...


Yes, genius, where guns are banned the murder rate is zero.

And that's why the murder rate in Lithuania is higher than in Iowa.

God, have mercy on these idiots...

You never do coz attention sicking needs constant feeding. :):):)
