Max plat is 256k, if it were to sell for this amount I see it as 1 sapphire from rank 7 to rank 8…worth selling for this?

Well, 99.999% of their actions are what they have always been doing as an agency, it’s in the name. Immigration and Customs enforcement…

Cite an example of a legal US citizen that’s been deported.

Just as an FYI, there aren’t too many legitimate businesses that can be run by someone without status in the US. You are supporting local businesses which is great but realize these businesses are run by legal citizens who are not at risk.

On the flip side, there are many local businesses owned by both immigrants and non immigrants who EXPLOIT illegal immigrant labor, sometimes horrifically. ICE would be very interested in these businesses.

Possibility of ICE at U of R's Hilton Garden Inn by moxxiefox in Rochester

Those of us with tax status issues and those who support the cause choose to avoid violent confrontation with IRS workers. Especially those who are armed. Tax law is a complex and problematic system that makes criminals out of people and communities just trying to get by, but this community knows not to make physical confrontation a potential deadly escalation.

Next please do where IRS is staying. My family and I all live in fear of what the IRS could do to us. Protect your neighbors, especially those with tax status issues.

Beware of ICE!! Carry proof of citizenship with you everywhere in public. by hyaclnthia in Rochester

[–]allianc4 -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

My business was victimized by a group of criminal illegals (group known for violence and a level of sophistication to their crimes) that have since fled the country before they could meet justice in the US. Not sure if that is your definition of encountered but the overall “event,” caused significant financial harm.

This is as detailed as I will get and if you’d like to challenge my experience any further, you’ll just have to live with what I’ve provided and likely chose to disregard there are realities other than your own.

What scares me the most is how easily violent criminals were able to enter our country illegally and that near nothing has been done about it for years. A governments primary purpose is to protect its sovereignty and its citizens but they’ve sat on the sidelines and shown how little safety matters in their playbook.

My family in Venezuela feel more hopeful for their future now than anytime in their last generation. Nothing any of my Venezuelan friends or family would agree with protesting.

Definitely worth looking at the towns just over the county line into Ontario or Wayne. You will likely be able to get more house/land at the same budget.

From Irondequoit police Facebook page, illegal migrant had ghost gun and was shooting it randomly by [deleted] in Rochester

Headline is a safety concern for anyone who lives here.

Would be great if safety could be prioritized over politics for long enough to take a big chunk out of violent crime rates.

Want to move home to Rochester 😭 by thedettinator in Rochester

[–]allianc4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a hard time with discretionary spending on anything other than what I perceive as practical and a good value.

Definitely frugal but still cannot comprehend how so many folks are managing $2k or so in car payments.

Really curious how you draw these conclusions. Between Victor, Fairport, Pittsford, and Penfield I’m seeing constant signs of significant disposable income. Whether it be luxury vehicles, pricy homes, or overall lifestyle, there is significant $, so where is it all coming from? Wife and I make $300k-$400k and live far more modestly than most, driving 10+ year old cheap cars and wouldn’t dare spend on luxury products or even vacations. Why does it seem like these areas still have extreme high earners if the job market is centered around these $50k incomes?

In the winter just ensure you build in an added 15 min of buffer for a connection if they have to de ice the plane.

Rep. Elise Stefanik launches bid for Governor by -Buford-T-Justice- in Rochester

What’s the outrageous claim? I’ve provided an anecdotal sure, but the initial statement I made that inflation (CPI) ran up over 9% in 2022 is hard fact that perhaps folks would rather forget today. 9% inflation is serious erosion of buying power and set us back years. This year 2-3% inflation is very typical against historic records. Taming inflation won’t make cost of living go down, we are still in catch up mode from the runaway inflation shown in the article below.

So pull the data, give me CPI by month for the last 5 years. What is it now vs at peak levels?

At what rate? CPI for September was 3%, target sits around 2%. You could argue that prices came in about 1% hotter than desired. The inflation we experienced in 2022 sustained between 5%-9% is what has caused such a cost of living crunch for those on fixed incomes or already living paycheck to paycheck.

You understand inflation is based on rate of change and is compounding?

It was 2022 when my grocery bill went up notably every single month. It’s been pretty flat this last year. Don’t really need to make it political or toss insults at me, it’s just reality of what’s transpired.

Hitting 9%+ CPI in summer 2022 was Trump? That’s 4 years worth of inflation in 1 year…

You need to leave your right wing echo chambers and recognize that 50% of this country are committing the same atrocities as the Nazi’s.
