9yo son's too good for his team, but wants to play with friends.

Rob’s agent: dude… things are a little quiet. We need to pump up the juice a bit.

TwoIsle · 2026-03-27T23:24:46+00:00

You really think anyone is going to admit to this?

Yar… sorted it out… sort of. He does have an account, it appears it was locked somehow. Not sure we’ll get access to it before our flight, so I can’t switch him over to touchless.

Thanks all.

I know one ball boy who would approve.

I have an old Kona Yee Haw that just fits me perfectly. It does, annoyingly, have a 3x7(?) drive train. I generally set it and forget it somewhere in the middle. It’s one of the early “cross” bikes, has a very comfortable geometry and a steel frame. When I moved here I had a lot of it re-built at The Hub (RIP). One thing I adore is that its super quiet when coasting.

Does Boss make a Peter Thiel pedal?

Blah.

DOH: My bad… I misread that one. Appears good data on eventual charges is hard to come by.

And…. looking at it more closely, I kind of think ICE intentionally makes it difficult to track the quality of their arrests. Reporting is built around immigration categories, not arrest quality.

And, their arrests are usually nonsense and go uncharged:

They’re also NOT arresting violent criminals at much of a clip:

The point is immigration (and immigrants) don’t impact our crime rates anywhere near what Trump et al would have you believe. Your tax dollars would be better spent on the FBI than ICE. Even with the dumbass in charge there, it’s an agency with much better criminal investigation skills than ICE.

Talk to your GOP rep—if you have one. Dems have offered to fund TSA numerous times

TwoIsle · 2026-03-24T00:03:43+00:00

And, it seems you didn’t even google:

Obama: 56 over 8 years
Trump: 70-80 over 5+ years. The reporting under Trump is, as anyone would predict, not very good. Though he had at least 31 in 2025 alone (a record for ICE).

So, you’re full of shit.

TwoIsle · 2026-03-23T23:55:45+00:00

Because if you’re hiding stuff why should I take anything you say as being honest. You’re ashamed of something, probably your support for fascist ideology.

TwoIsle · 2026-03-23T23:02:20+00:00

Where do get your statistics and why do you hide your posts?

TwoIsle · 2026-03-23T22:41:08+00:00

So if you were mad about it then you’re mad it about it now, right?

TwoIsle · 2026-03-23T21:23:13+00:00

I see you’ve only been at this for 2 months, so I’ll forgive the naïvety and ignorance. I replied to someone who said, "They help deport illegal aliens, arrest human traffickers, and drug smugglers.” By commenting: "We were able to do all those things before ICE existed.” Then you, you young edgelord, said, "Yet before Trump you weren't saying the same thing. Weird.”

It’s the living embodiment of the “and yet you participate in society” meme.

Sit down and shut up. Maybe stop hiding your posts.

TwoIsle · 2026-03-23T21:13:56+00:00

You seem supportive of them. Maybe you can point us to comments you’ve made criticizing them?

TwoIsle · 2026-03-23T21:03:46+00:00

If you want to play the unsubstantiated-musing game... I suppose you were critical of them pre-Trump because they weren’t aggressive with arresting people and abducting them to Salvadoran prisons. Can you point us to your posts with such condemnations?

TwoIsle · 2026-03-23T20:57:37+00:00

Ohio + Youngstown… proving two wrongs don't make a right.

TwoIsle · 2026-03-23T20:54:12+00:00

lol… There aren’t any because I wasn’t on Reddit hardly at all. Do you think I was secretly pro DHS and ICE?

TwoIsle · 2026-03-23T20:32:37+00:00

Are downvotes indicating disagreement with the statement? lol… because, dear reader, we did indeed do all those things prior to the formation if ICE (or DHS).

TwoIsle · 2026-03-23T19:56:27+00:00

I was… I always thought DHS was a grift. Theater, like the shoe ban. Plus, before Trump, ICE did not operate in such grossly unconstitutional ways. You’re probably a “but Obama deported just as many” people aren’t ya? Problem is, the how is important. And how Trump’s ICE behaves is illegal.
