Ben Kenobi, you are a Pole - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

**leoto5Fm** · 09-19-2009, 08:27 PM

Poles are wonderful people, but sadly I'm German, not Polish.

**xqkAY7Lg** · 09-20-2009, 03:36 AM

Heresson is a tool. I guess he better deal with it.

**Jenisoisy** · 09-20-2009, 03:46 AM

My family left before the wars.

I'm mostly English tho. English, German, Irish and Scandinavian in that order.

**Colorostikse** · 09-20-2009, 03:54 AM

I'm not quite that old.

**Sawyer** · 09-20-2009, 04:12 AM

Everyone in Europe are decedents of the Polish, they just don't know it.

**Roamsaffots** · 09-20-2009, 04:52 AM

I'm amazed that even one of Ben's cretinous ancestors managed to make enough money burning witches and selling indulgences for the journey to North America.

Edit: Oops, thought this was a birthday thread.

**Annevecenqp** · 09-20-2009, 11:26 AM

The English parts, one family is originally from Midlothian

Oh God. Please could someone hand Ben a map of the world and ask him to actually look at it?

Americans and their geography......

**abubycera** · 09-20-2009, 02:04 PM

Holding up Ben as an example of any particular group is unfair to all involved.

**RuttyUttepe** · 09-20-2009, 03:54 PM

Anyway weren't Prussians protestant? So if BK ancestors are from there and are Chatolic aren't they probably Polish?

**vekiuytyh** · 09-20-2009, 05:38 PM

this map is better. I've added the borders of catholic Warmia region.
Masuria = the polish-speaking protestant southern part of Prussia. Ben Kenobi comes from the southern, polish-speaking edge of it, and has a polish surname. His grandparents (or whatever) may have been Germans, but clearly of polish origin.

**M_Marked** · 09-20-2009, 05:58 PM

Slowwhand, you are a Texan.

Deal with it!

**daasayse** · 09-20-2009, 06:03 PM

Long form or it didn't happen.

**Arximedus** · 09-20-2009, 08:53 PM

One from Oslo and one from Bergen, eh? Interesting. What was the surname of your ancerstors from Bergen? Vangsness. By way of Denmark, Wisconsin, North Dakota, and then Canada in the 20's.

**encumeterz** · 09-20-2009, 08:59 PM

I've edited and cropped. Ortelsburg is a German city inside a Polish predominant countryside, and is the little red dot.

**ycMC0PLg** · 09-20-2009, 09:30 PM

Goes without saying, really.

**Xewksghy** · 09-20-2009, 09:52 PM

But you just said it

**pepBarihepe** · 09-20-2009, 10:03 PM

Don't blame us. He's a Canuk. We don't like and we don't want him.

**CializCialiscsqw** · 09-21-2009, 12:09 AM

It's the language that some struggle with, isn't it, Felch?

**UKkoXJvF** · 09-21-2009, 12:51 AM

The Texan knows that "WE LEARN OUR HISTORY GOOD IN AMERICA!" isn't correct.

What else do you have to say?
