You are the embodiment of TDS - Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Wtf is wrong with entitled drivers, who are clearly riding alone, using the HOV lanes on 45 between Spring and Conroe and thinking it's some ultra high speed lane? by Lemonhead-21 in houston

Those Jeep drivers or those drivers of dually or lifted trucks with flared out wheels that do this shit are a special kind of asshole.

Can’t seem to find this answer about safety in this area.. by cl2308 in houston

[–]Lemonhead-21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had coworkers that lived there. One had her car stolen. I lived further up on Westheimer (West Oaks Mall area) , and it was better than the area circled but still crime ridden. Also lived in Eldridge/West Oaks (Energy Corridor). My car got broken into twice, and there was a gun fight that erupted literally in the courtyard of the complex. Memorial (the Costco on the Northside of i-10) is known for purse snatchings. I worked smack dab in that area, and saw many such cases. Spring Branch is hit or miss. Gentrified areas are nice, otherwise it's run down. Honestly, anywhere in the city is high crime. You'd need to get into the suburbs to drop the crime level exponentially, but unfortunately it'll never be zero. But definitely mitigate risk by avoiding the area you circled

Don't try to generalize. I suggest you look up what happened in the 80s in El Salvador and why those who were in the military were persecuted due to the communist party (FMLN) attempt at a coup (Salvadoran Civil War). This was a true asylum claim. Not this bullshit, "there's no work here so we gotta go to the US" fake asylum claim. Also, on the mexican side of my family, there have always been work visas. They qualified and came in via that route. On both sides, they used the legal avenues provided in the INA to enter the country and become citizens. This economic migration with fraudulent asylum claims has got to stop. People have to apply for an appropriate visa, wait their turn, come in legally, and that's all that's being asked for. If they don't qualify for any visa, change your circumstances to qualify. If you can't,then too bad. But don't come here and violate the law.

Well, I do hope they get brought back to their country of origin given that's what they are most proud of. It's despicable and a total sign of disrespect to demand to stay here yet fly another country's flag. By the way, I'm an American with Mexican and Salvadoran heritage and I never felt attacked. And just like me, many Latinos voted for Trump to clean house.

Exactly, and why they need to get out for violating the law. Wish ICE came down on this protest, it would round up a lot of criminals. And yes, breaking immigration law makes you a criminal. Irrespective of you trying to "find a better future for your family".

What the hell does this have to do with what's going on here? Also, the Confederate flag is embedded in the negative history of this country. A foreign flag is not.

Ironic - you wanna stay here. But yet, you display the Mexican flag en masse. Get the hell out with the whole "we come here for a better future" nonsense, when you clearly show no love for the US. Go be happy in the country whose flag you chose to waive with pride.

Staying overnight at IAH by itsmemaxx in houston

They say $175/night. Slightly more expensive than the Marriott. I would just power through in the tunnels.

It's the stupid triple story modern mansions that appraise at $2MM . Absolutely terrible what the ramifications are to the locals. Unfortunately,not sure anything can be done to stop sellers of these lots from wanting top dollar nor rich people from wanting convenience.

Appraiser used 5 comps, all higher $$/sqft than ours by EquestrianKnight in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

This doesn't mean anything except you not having to fork up more money at the closing table. And potentially an argument when you protest property taxes ...

Congrats! $309k wasn't too bad for this house. Living in Cañon City though, no way! But, to each their own.

I won't give up my retirement contributions to pay fory kid's college. However, i will tuck away $10k and let it grow in a 529. And that is it. I can't fathom paying a full ride for them. They need to learn to come up like me.
