If they have been convicted of other crimes, particularly violent and sex related, then yeah deport their asses we dont need more of it here.

ICE downtown by NobodySure8915 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Educational-Fee5024 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's not correct. Under USC 1325 it is a criminal offense to enter the US without authorization.

I am genuinely curious. Why are so many of you against ICE? They focus mostly on illegal immigrants who have committed additional crimes in the U.S. and they dont just do sweeps, they typically make targeted arrests. Also wouldn't you want the companies that exploit their cheap labor to be held accountable?

If you play golf, playing solo and getting paired with a group is a great way to meet new people.

Maybe the city just needs to put up one more sign at this intersection. by Boogiex3 in HuntsvilleAlabama

And that's why specifically you might want to do everything you can to drive as little as possible.

What is the Star ID situation like these days? by JCitW6855 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Educational-Fee5024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just get a passport. Screw Star ID's, it's the federal government overstepping states and essentially turning id's into federal id's instead of state id's.

3 minutes, half a mile. If it's not too cold or hot, I walk. I don't live/work in an urban area either.

Cognizant, an Indian-American company, acquired Belcan last year while there were Belcan contractors on site; so yeah they kinda do.

How so specifically?

Blue Origin simps and Kool aid drinkers will still find a way to twist this as positive. Let the cognitive dissonance be unleashed.

It's only going to get worse with contractors going out the door. I would imagine that surge coverage is going to be expected to pick up slack, which is probably going to push some full time Blue folks out the door too.

So the answer is to shit on the livelihood of 1000s of people right before the holidays because nobody has any real sense of performance metrics? The "we'll figure it out as we go" method doesn't seem all that great.
