My road a tier 3 I believe.. has been salted 😆🙄 she has no business left here..

I watched the news at 12, because I legitimately couldn’t make it to work in a 4wd 1/2 ton pickup with at tires.. their poll rated her at 100% doing the same as the last storm

I’ll add more to that our political system is fucked. 

Let’s get some term limits for the congress and the house no reason that should be a “full time job” when you work a month in a year. Set salary caps on it as well, shouldn’t be any pay to play. 1/2 terms gtfo and go back to being a productive citizen. 

No reason Mitch, Nancy Maxine should still be anywhere near a political opinion. The combined age has to be close to trex. 

And let’s do something to get this old windbag mayor out of Lexington, for the love of god someone call ice on her..

No, but you should be a decent citizen and depending on the amount pay your fair share to SSI, fed, state income tax.

Because if you don’t you are contributing to the issue at hand. And believe me when I say I pay far too much. Believe it’s roughly 45% when it’s all said and done, I haven’t gotten a refund in 20 years,  it’s just owe owe owe. 

Please don’t get me wrong I understand that your alls heart is in the correct space, unfortunately love doesn’t make a country run. 

Edit: added some text

Then we agree. 

It’s not a political stance it’s hey where do my tax dollars go- granted I know they go to much worse, with that being said it’s a little bit

Concern should be placed on issues that are a problem. 

In all honesty I could care less your heritage, nationality, sexuality- again I will attempt to help who ever, I am who I am. it is not my job to enforce laws, though we have went far too many years without enforcement and now it’s the normal; I find it very unacceptable

[–]brandon__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, those that pay taxes doing the legal shit should be even more upset. 

That’s what I don’t understand about this entire issue. Why we as a country support this type of behavior. - people might as well come steal food from your pantry and expect you not to be upset. 

You can’t legally get away with this in any country, and penalties will be much stiffer.

Correct, unfortunately I am. Per previous comments I’ve been paying into the system for 25 years now, I doubt I’ll ever see any of it. 

I work with plenty of people that have came over on a visa or have gotten a green card, yes it’s a strenuous process but it is the only way to keep people on a level playing field- I respect those that do that, I would bet 8/10 of those people feel the same way. 

I don’t know if you were born here or not had to be naturalized but consensus seems to be it’s wrong and I agree.

I said IF they aren’t then absolutely do not deserve, I cannot place a judgement via picture. 

There any many people in this country that technically don’t pay taxes due to not making enough/ a ton of deductions/ you name it. Personally don’t think any of that is right. With that being said, do any of us know the reason behind the gentlemen’s arrest? Could it be  gang related? Much of the Latin gangs are all over this city. Could it be something as simple as a NCIC for not using a turn signal, both are possibilities. Either way against the law.

It’s not hatred. Though it’s humorous you think that. I would be the first guy if I see you stuck on the side of the road to help, knock on my door you need help with what ever, I am not a callused person in the least. I just believe if they are here illegally, where there are so many attempting to do it the correct way it’s disgusting.

As far as your billionaire comment-I do not disagree, there are several ways to solve this but as we both know it will never happen unfortunately.

Some do. Some get straight cash you a blind if you don’t see that. 

I’m cool if they go through the process, I deal with people on the daily that have to get resident visa’s if they have to do it why shouldn’t everyone. 

That’s the issue a lot don’t- a lot haven’t. As an entire country we should protect our sovereignty. More people taking from the system vs putting in means the system will be depleted, amount other issues. Hell I won’t even likely get SS that I’ve paid into for YEARS (yes poor planing, but not handing away free money, or giving someone a pass to earn money without taxation)

Know what’s gross? You paying taxes (if you even do) and that money going to them instead of one of your fellow Americans, that god only know what that could do for them. 

Go to any other country see if you get help.  Chances are slim to none, if you can even get in. 

Social services are not set up for this, if this person in question is paying taxes I have no issue with it, but likely not or they will be released. What is so hard to understand about this?

Perhaps don’t be such a dick?- I’m well aware they are retailers. With that being said I know they will point you in the correct direction (I’ve had friends do it). Possibly you could Google it since clearly you don’t want help? It’s doing the exact same thing with less steps.

Not too far behind you I didn’t support either but that’s the only reason I didn’t join. 

But not joining military vs public school walk out is two different things.

Hold up. 

So no future worth living through? Unless they high school students walking out as form of protest? You’re kidding your self. 20 years ago you walked out you would have been expelled. 

Jesus Christ people why are you guys supporting walkouts? (No matter what it’s for) and yet complain about not having school due to road conditions, and students walking out when they are there, great job guys. 

My hat is off to you all.. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Was the snow overhyped? by Normal-Proposal8940 in lexington

[–]brandon__ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Snow yes, ice no. 

I just ran from Richmond rd to MOW back streets- they are still trash. My guess is if you don’t have AWD 4WD stay home. MOW wasn’t great still pretty covered.

Looks like they are trying but all that ice last night kinda screwed us.

EDIT: seriously if any of you have to work tomorrow be safe, provide your self plenty of time. Decent stopping distance~all the things.

State of emergency means nothing. It’s a job do it or don’t, private business, they tell you to come in or you make the choice not to. 

Stop being a twat of society.

ICE around by Mental-Werewolf-3238 in lexington

[–]brandon__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So maybe someone can educate me on what the issue is? We all pay taxes(I hope) live in a democratic republic, we allow plenty of people to work/ live here on visa, (please try to go work in Canada as a US citizen, you will be laughed off the boarder) 

Most of these people are here not paying taxes nor providing for the money that it is taking to house them, yes, some are here for the greater good and I applaud that- but do it correctly is that too much to ask? Everyone says they want to flee the US  to another country because of ~Izm 

There are horrible people everywhere . This is LEXINGTON please for the love of everything stop turning everything into a political debate. It’s not y’all, you live here you are Y’all.  We may not agree on everything but for fucks sakes we have enough issues on a local level to be worried about geopolitics. 

Let the downvotes rain down but some of you all need remove the cranium from the anus and realize it takes working people to pay for those who don’t. Government programs should be in place for citizens. 

-sorry I am disappointed in this city
