that ppl don't buy tickets


If you get caught you pay 40 times the price of the ticket or you have to accompany the policeman to the nearest police station.It is on your own risk.

In Poland you see far less flags than in America where everyone seems eager to proclaim his love for the country.However there are in Poland some king's symbols and other peculiar things to be found with crowns etc and you think about Poles with horses.

There are fewer flags here but more than you might think, southern. Many left them up after Smolensk.

Yes,because they estimate that they will get caught in less than 1/40 of times they don't buy the ticket.

Oh yeah, but they need to be shuffled around. Heaven knows what for ;)

Allowing gay pride marches, that was a shock here. I can imagine the mohair berety being renegades and gunning them down ;)

Poland is a country that could spawn many fanatics if the climate was right. I don't see many NS people here in Gliwice but they are in quite a few big cities.
