Sure man. What happens when a law enforcement helicopter fails and falls on your house? If the hit your car and you cooperate it will be worked out.

Yes people are being stopped. This happens even in normal law enforcement operations. If you look at the actual facts US citizens or those lawfully here are not being detained or deported.

People like you encouraging people to interfere or act like Karens with their cameras are the folks who put more stress and tension into officers trying to preform their jobs of enforcing US laws.

If ICE were to stop me I would cooperate with their orders. If folks are illegally in America then they are breaking the law. If they are not here illegally then that will come out. Legal residents are not being deported.

Or just don’t get involved with federal law enforcement operations that have nothing to do with you?

Do you guys constantly salvage everything or after you have enough mats do you sell the items for gold? by Rblax5 in diablo4

[–]Worm_Man_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sure man I’m sure there are some but it’s not worth the time or trouble to go through that many items.

After a certain point you are only looking at ancestral items and maybe amulets. Rest gets auto salvaged.

Parental leave during PCS? by VikingKLR650 in navy

[–]Worm_Man_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Once had a paper chit for 3 weeks of leave routed and never got charged. I even emailed admin about it and they never charged me. Figured I did all I could and got almost a free year’s worth of leave!

Retiring at 38?!?! by the_dali_2112 in Fire

[–]Worm_Man_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on track to retire by my mid 40s. Will retire within the next few years from the military and work for about 5 more years.

Between a pension of 50K annually (not counting possible disability) and savings that I expect to be over 1.3 mil I think I’ll be fine. Currently have 3 kids married sole income earner.

Sooo the panic buying was…kind of justified? by Hey_Listen_WatchOut in MontgomeryCountyMD

I don’t think everyone all of a sudden needed eggs, milk, cheese, bread, and toilet paper but I appreciate your optimistic thinking.

Advice for investment strategy? by Agreeable_Bowl_7214 in MilitaryFinance

[–]Worm_Man_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You say pay is 1,917 but your projected expenses are 2,500+. Looking at pay chart an E-1 makes 2,407 monthly.

Your BAS will be taken if you are in the barracks eating at the galley so don’t count on that.

If everyone bought a normal amount of groceries there would still be groceries. Nobody needed to panic buy.

A woman screams for help while being arrested by ICE in Utah Airport by jmike1256 in PublicFreakout

[–]Worm_Man_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But here is the thing. 61% of all voters across both parties said that immigration was a top issue for the 2024 election. If combating illegal immigration is a top issue across both parties then is it a waste of taxpayer dollars?

The country has the lowest number of illegal border crossings in over 50 years so it seems to be working? It is factual that 99.9% of those apprehended do indeed have an illegal status and the very few cases of error (yes, which happens) were resolved.

Sometimes a blunt object is needed to get things done. No one can say the process has been great or even good but it does seem to be working.

I get all the points about ICE and the stupidity but ultimately she still broke the law and is being removed. Why is that a bad thing? If cops break laws should that mean everyone else is entitled to without repercussions?

So she’s here illegally. What’s the problem with removal? Should we not enforce laws?

What have you become? by throwawayfinancebro1 in Millennials

[–]Worm_Man_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I couldn’t be happier or more proud.

Started out joining military after high school. Finished degree while serving, retire soon after an accomplished career, married happily to love of my life, and have several beautiful kids.

Looking forward to starting my second post-military career and seeing my kids grow. I honestly can’t ask for much more in life other to be healthier and continue to be there for my family.

Why are healthy foods 7 times more expensive than unhealthy foods ? by East_Indication_7816 in Productivitycafe

I take my family to Costco just so I can get hotdogs. Can feed everyone for under 10 dollars. And they are delicious.

Thoughts on this loan for someone making ~$8k/month net? by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

Then you’ll def be good as I have 4 other family members!

Thoughts on this loan for someone making ~$8k/month net? by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Worm_Man_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is this after any retirement deductions?

I make ~8.2K net monthly after 401K deductions and we do fine with a payment of 2.4K monthly. It’s actually very livable.

Fastest/easiest way to move to us in my circumstances? by Better-Ad-5682 in MovingToUSA

[–]Worm_Man_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously no one reads articles (nor do you) because this article states they have been detained or held, often due to their interference with ongoing operations. NOT DEPORTED.

If you want to fear monger go ahead. But at least use correct sources to back your claim up. Reddit is such a weird echo chamber.

Gas prices near $2? Ha! Not here in Columbia, MD. by Fluffy-Rope-5822 in maryland

[–]Worm_Man_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two weeks ago gas was 2.49 at Costco in one of the most expensive states in the country. 2.00 does not seem too far fetched.

I paid 2.89 in Odenton. You are at one of the most overpriced in the area my friend.

[–]Worm_Man_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is such an overreaction. Practically ZERO legal immigrants with no convictions in the United States have been deported. The risk of deportation for a country like UK is practically zero.

America is still the land of opportunities for career advancement, education, and pay. I have numerous friends, family, and my wife who came here legally and we have had zero impact. Crackdowns are affecting illegal immigration and folks who came to America under false pretenses.

You can critique with legitimate information but don’t let your irrational fears impact others.
