In cities like Paris, Rome, Prague (e.g. top tourist destinations), city centre apartments are investment. That is also why it pays off in the centre of Prague to rent than to buy, unlike in the rest of the country. Anyways, counting square meter vs. monthly salary is something I haven’t seen before.
From quick google search it seems the estimates vary between 200.000 and 270.000 in the whole country. That is a bit more than 100.
Ah, I see now what you meant. Well, we are talking developed countries, right? I think that the only other developed country with similar (or to be more precise easier) access to firearms than Czech Republic is US. Then there is Switzerland, which is a bit worse than Czech Republic. Nothing else to compare to, really
I just said Prague is more expensive in relation to salary than Amsterdam.
I have no idea where the hell you get those numbers from. If you do count the Dutch East Indies that number would be in the region of 20+ million but without I sincerely doubt it would rise above a few hundred merchants and such.
ahhh i see you come from the stupid camp in regards to immigration , where you cant seem to comprehend responsible immigration from 0 immigration .
the UK CANNOT cope with the current levels of immigration . like it or lump it .
when a train carriage is full you stop letting people on same with a country . the EU is great for your country , you can suck all our money from us and invest it into your country and you nation improves , BUT what do you offer my country ? nothing that we would get from you outside of the EU . so then the question is what benefits do we have being in the EU ? none .

I guess this is the price for having been a colonial power, isn’t it?
[/quote] no not at all most of our immigrants come from eastern europe i dont remember us have a empire in eastern europe . this is the result of being a rich nation and having an open doors policy to poor ones.

According to this 4 in 5 Brits make € 1,892.83 a month.
We had 7 years of debilitating Nazi occupation and then 45 years of Soviet-imposed communist government. Considering that history, I’d expect UK to be much further ahead of us. Not to mention that the same amount of money gets you much further in my country. Still dreadful?
[/quote] you’re aware we dont use the euro right ? so that would be 36,000 euros a year if we convert .
i earn a lot more than that and so does basically everyone i know but thats because i live in london where wages are much higher than the rest of the UK
[quote=“snejdarek, post:1891, topic:21032”]
Well we have only about 5.000 muslims in the country. And government made it quite clear that muslim immigration is not very welcome (unlike, for example, Buddhist Vietnamese).
So yeah, big fucking problem with a JAPANESE member of Czech parliament saying people should walk pigs by mosques
And please scroll up a bit and read your own words on how immigration needs to get under control.
As regards gypsies: yes, it is a problem, and people always react to problems faster than the government does
[/quote] yes so your nation has problems so does ours you’re worse than me when in comes to making your country sound like the perfect paradise .
[quote=“snejdarek, post:1891, topic:21032”]
I am not justifying it. In my country, saying “because that is my right” is justification enough.
What I am trying to say is that I find it exceptionally cruel that in some other countries people don’t have this CHOICE. Like Charb, the editor-in-chief of Charlie Hebdo, who was a sport shooter, was basically waiting for some extremist to kill him, and whose license for concealed carry was not approved.
Or like the Jews in EU 15 countries, who are attacked so often that it is not even a news nowadays, unless it involves shooting of kids in a Jewish school.
[/quote] every post you make on here involves gun ownership and a way of justifying it , if your country is so fucking perfect and safe why dont you leave your house without a weapon ?
your logic right here
" my country is so perfect and safe that i dont leave the house without at least a can of mace and a baton "
nice to see you didnt actually read the source . that would be minium wage .
“Four in five new jobs are in sectors averaging under £16,640 for a 40-hour week. Working full-time on the £6.31 hourly minimum wage would gross just £13,124 in a year.”
the average wage in the UK is £26,500 salary. or 36194.32 Euro according to your own source i would dispute it actually being about £32,000 i still earn more than this as does my mrs
Four in five new jobs are in sectors averaging under £16,640 for a 40-hour week.
That is £ 1386,66 a month, or € 1,892.83 a month.
And that is average, not minimum. So please, do tell me about how much better UK is considering the recent historical weight my country is burdened with.
excuse me and how is that the average considering the national average for the UK is 26,500 or 2,208.33 a month . you figures are pulled from your arse
doing some of my own research you find the average wage in london is £41,000 a year
and he top ten cities in the UK are all over £30,000 a year so please show me where you pull this stupid figures from that put the national wage at £17,000 considering the army pays a new recruit £19,000 which is a low paid job so please go on
Look, you think I’m an idiot because I prefer to be armed even though statistically, I live in a safer society than you do.
I think you are an idiot because you believe that (1) average person can fight off an attacker armed with knife by using bare hands and (2) that your cops surveillance and quick response times will handle whatever evil might come your way.
Let’s settle at that.
And I am happy Brits are earning more than Czechs do. If they wouldn’t I would be first to advocate return to communism in my country.
i dont think you’re an idiot at all i think you feel insecure without a weapon .

[/quote] at knife range your gun is useless , if you was randmly attacked on the the street you wouldnt have a chance to pull your weapon .
oh no sorry i forgot you’re rambo and will shoot them as you fall to the floor with a knife in your ribs or back or wherever .
or a mugging where you’re surrounded by a group at very close range to scare you where your gun would be useless . which you would be better just hitting one and running as fast as possible . oh sorry i forgot your rambo that would be to cowardly of you , you would much rather die while attempting to pull a gun which they would easily take from you and possibly use it on you .

[/quote] im glad your nation is doing well also .
in certain situations yes in certain situations no
[quote=“snejdarek, post:1907, topic:21032”]
There may be Brits that don’t share your opinion. But should they face evil, they will be unarmed the same as you. And it is them I feel sorry for.
[/quote] they can own a gun all they want they can keep a gun and use it to defend their home ? why would you feel sorry for them ? because we CHOOSE to live in a society where we dont carry guns about ?
majority of brits enjoy a gun free society , most americans enjoy carrying guns , many cezchs enjoy carrying guns , its down to culture our society is based upon our values your is based upon your countries values .
dont press your views on my nation and i wont on yours . this is the way as a nation we have chose to live . deal with it
If you seriously live life worried about being attacked at any moment in the day I would advise you go and see someone as you most likely have an Anxiety disorder .
If I was attacked I would deal with the situation in the way I feel is best . as I have said before I have never had an issue EVER.
My life motto is hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
There is a difference between fear and readiness.
Being armed doesn’t cost me anything (there are no gun free zones like in the US). The only drawback is getting the gun out when I’m taking shit. I may be carrying it without ever getting even close to using it for the next 40 years. And that will be perfectly fine with me. What wouldn’t be fine is finding myself in situation where I would need it to protect myself - or even worse, someone close to me - and I wouldn’t have it.
I suppose you lock your doors for the night. Is that sign of anxiety too?
very different situation . you show a clear refusal to leave your house without a weapon which point to an issue , weather it be the result of a past experience etc
how would you describe people that spend thousands preparing for the end of the world ?
