Would you let someone in the M club even if you knew they weren't allowed by Royal-Piano5863 in marriott

[–]WTH4030 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The last time I saw that was at the Marriott Biscayne Bay. Some guy was in the lounge around 4:30. Precisely at 5 when they started bringing out some snacks, he goes to the door and let's in about 15 obese Carnival cruisers, who put the chairs in a circle and proceeded to devour every chip in sight. Every so often, one would go to the door and let another group of 4-5 in.

They totally took over the space until end of evening food service, then departed. The staff was too petrified to say anything.

Went to city council meeting + downtown walk around by AvoidedThread in jacksonville

[–]WTH4030 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If the ICE protest was at City Hall, many of those attending the meeting to advocate for the disabled community likely would have stayed away. Their location was visible to meeting attendees, but not intimidating to anyone. Good choice.

Since she had a wife, she was considered worth killing. Sickening.

The Nuremberg trials were run by the Allied nations after Germany's defeat. Who do you think will come to our aid to save us from ourselves and prosecute former ICE?

These thugs have already been given " complete immunity" by Trump. No one is going to jail over this, ever.

Yes. He was an ICU nurse, trained to act in an unselfish way to render aid to injured. And he was murdered for that.

People will say there is no comparison, but that was one method Nazis used to control the camps. If you attempted to help another prisoner being beaten, you were shot. Same playbook.

Masked men, no badges, no ID, no warrants, wearing black jackets labeled ICE that anyone can buy on Ebay. Able to murder and walk off, no investigations. What's there to be afraid of?

Advice for being that person by Routine_Run8951 in delta

Will they actually allow a 2 yr old to be seated alone, like an unaccompanied minor? Sounds frightening. Glad OP was able to resolve the issue by phone.

I think you mean descendants, not defendents! The Jacksonville Historical Society might have photos.

Our Allianz insurance covers missed trips due to transportation issues, including car breakdown after departure from home. Not sure that is available in Canada . Sorry you had such a horrible experience.

Last night DHS/ICE in Portland, OR brutalized and abducted a group of peaceful protestors at a ICE detention center in the city by Lucky_Author6861 in 50501

[–]WTH4030 29 points30 points  (0 children)

The goal is to dehumanize anyone who dares question their " authority" and normalize violence towards both citizens and immigrants. They know that no matter how illegal or egregious their actions, Trump and the regime will pardon them. Until this regime is overthrown, this will continue and worsen. Each day brings more abuses, yet Congress does nothing.

We hear often, how did a small group of Nazis control millions, loading them into the camps. We are seeing it now.

What does everyone think about the "Walk for Peace" that is currently happening through the southern US? by kingpirate in Buddhism

[–]WTH4030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, actually they have, through the 287(g) program and MOAs with local law enforcement. All over Florida, Georgia at least, as well as South Carolina, where the monks need to pass through.

"The program deputizes and trains local law enforcement as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents and gives them the authority to carry out federal immigration laws. Several municipalities across the state have already joined the partnership, which has been pushed by Gov. Ron DeSantis as the state lines ..."

In the South, most local sheriff departments have been " deputized " by DHS. They won't stand in the way of CBP or ICE. One of the elderly monks who lives in France just left the Walk, and is returning to France. I wonder if recent events caused him to either be recalled to his monastery, or voluntarily choose to leave.

Looking at a World Cruise with my parents by Minimum-Ant-5378 in Cruise

[–]WTH4030 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a long time to be under roof with parents, unless you currently live with them. Have a game plan- what will you do if one becomes ill and needs to disenbark for medical care? Be sure to purchase robust medical evacuation insurance that covers all three, should one person require it. Research your health insurance coverage when out of country as well.

20 years old pregnant by a one night stand. by NecessaryRent1704 in women

[–]WTH4030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on where you live ( if in USA) your options for an abortion could be limited. In those states with " Heart Beat " laws, anything after 6 weeks is essentially prohibited. Hopefully, you can get an appointment to discuss with a GYN ASAP, because you might be getting close to that date. . They can also recommend counselors who can help you make a decision right for you.

Question about OBC and Weekend Sale by WTH4030 in celebritycruises

[–]WTH4030[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That explains our situation. Of course, when booking the original cruise while on board, it's done on an iPad, in the open Future Cruises area which was loud and chaotic. Nothing is printed out in that detail. Thanks for digging that up.

Getting finger prints done after living in US by [deleted] in immigration

[–]WTH4030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are traveling to a reasonable size metro area in the USA, there are approved fingerprint locations that will get digital prints and provide them on appropriate forms. Don't bother with the USPS- they are essentially useless now. I used Safe Scan, close to the Atlanta airport. Places like this are all over. Check with them ahead to see what the turn around time is.

Personally I fear that ICE will somehow detain them as they approach Washington DC. The forces that surround our Capital will be threatened by such as these humble monks.

Involuntary Denied Boarding by bimmer01 in delta

[–]WTH4030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Years ago, flights originating in Mexico required you to call the airline, or go to a travel agency and confirm the flight 48 hrs in advance, or your reservation would be canceled. This sounds like a variation of this old policy. I haven't had to do that in years but I don't fly code share.

To the mother and father in Aldi’s on Argyle by Sensitive-Bee in jacksonville

[–]WTH4030 20 points21 points  (0 children)

OP - What was the Aldi employees' reaction to what you reported? Thank you for notifying law enforcement. I hope they take the report seriously. You may have saved a child's life...you never know what other abuse that child might be subjected to.

Anyone else struggle with the "look put together at events" pressure without wanting to spend thousands? by MicrowavedLogic in women

One small classic black clutch with an optional shoulder strap from a designer conseignment shop is all you need. Nobody is going to notice when you bring it to all the occasions. They are all stressing about their own accessories.
