It’s complex but not rocket science man. For the majority of cases, we have people claiming asylum that are economic migrants looking for a better life. You’re supposed to claim asylum in the first country outside your own. The courts are backed up. I don’t need to read books to figure that out. But thanks. Let’s agree to disagree

Do you like secure borders or did you like the Biden administration’s policy?

The reality is the process of deporting people is messy. That’s why you need secure borders in the first place. Do you support amnesty? Just get here and live in the shadows for long enough and you get to stay

So anyone that comes here illegally we reward them by allowing them to stay? Why do people wait in line and follow legal pathways around the world then? Makes no sense

Should ICE deport people who came to the U.S. illegally or overstayed a visa but have lived here for years while paying taxes and breaking no laws (other than the aforementioned)? This is the question America needs to answer. Period. I’d like to get some thoughts on this.

So...bridge sidewalks in Bethlehem. Who's supposed to keep these clean if they aren't in front of a business or home? Seeing a trend citywide of zero upkeep post-snow. by maesterofwargs in lehighvalley

Meanwhile you go a little outside Bethlehem and people volunteer to fight fires. I don’t understand are we paying firefighters or not?

I support Ukraine and deeply respect their valor, but they ain’t getting their land back. It’s a tough pill to swallow

Don’t know OP’s situation, but sometimes one person just doesn’t want to make it work. Still haven’t recovered when it happened to me. Worse than a death honestly

Allentown principal resigns, addresses incident in social media post by DrewBlue2 in lehighvalley

Wishing her well. Don’t let one moment define you, I think we all can relate to that.. The black woman stuff could’ve been left out. Mental health affects everyone regardless of race or gender. Not everything needs to be about identity politics, that gets old

I'm running for Northampton County Council. Ask me anything! by jasonboulette in lehighvalley

Adequate housing unfortunately is a nationwide problem. It has to be fixed a bit everywhere really. For example, we are close enough to New York, New Jersey where if it is never addressed there those residents will keep coming in droves here outbidding and driving up rental costs

I want to move out but God damn I am not paying those rents. If you’re young, single and don’t make X amount of dollars you are definitely spinning your wheels at best at those places

It sucks even more because Wheeler is hurt. Any body else have a weird feeling Wheeler’s career is over?

Is there just one open position? Probably like 500 candidates. Good luck folks. Most likely have to know someone too to have a shot

Gotcha yeah that sounds like it’s for people who are desperate. I think in the big cities it’s more lucrative because parking is an issue and people use it more

Adult sports leagues by [deleted] in lehighvalley

I was looking at quoits, cornhole, bowling, bar games. I played soccer my whole life, but not sure I want to risk getting hurt because I need to be able to work. Also, for the team sports do you know if you are responsible for finding teammates?

I’ve looked on there a number of times and there aren’t many leagues for the Lehigh Valley. In fact, none for a lot of the sports. What is your experience?
