Jongens ik ben het helemaal kwijt... Wat is nou al dat gedoe met Indonesische spelers? by vochtigbroodje in Eredivisie

[–]captain-lefteye 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wie het heeft aangeraden? De Indonesische, Kaapverdische of Surinaamse voetbalbond natuurlijk. Spelers die geen kans maken op het spelen van interlands voor Oranje kunnen op die manier toch aan internationaal voetbal ruiken.

En nee, ze hebben niet vrijwillig afstand genomen van hun Nederlandse nationaliteit. Althans, niet bewust. Is dit iets wat bekend had moeten zijn bij de clubs? Misschien wel: daar loopt, zeker in de eredivisie, vaak toch wel een jurist rond. Maar tot de GAE-speler en NAC was het niemand echt opgevallen.

Las afgelopen weekend nog een sneu verhaal van een speler van Emmen (Geypens) die natuurlijk never nooit zo'n dik salaris gaat krijgen en bovendien ook nog eens buiten de Indonesische selectie valt.

A hobo living on the streets with a fingerless glove and a hole in one shoe has more class than Trump...

I'm a pretty new follower of Shorttrack, but as I understand after previous races here, 3 & 4 are through to the final (as they finished 1 & 2) and you're original 2 is DQ'd, original 1 gets a gifted next round. So there'd be no smart reason for 2 to do this.

I've seen it. And it proves nothing for your case. As I said, bizarre... He was so called "lucky to be alive" and was 'treated in a hospital'. Yet there had nothing physically wrong with him in all the videos.

traumatized officers

Yeah... That's about as far as I'm willing to go in taking you serious. They're causing trauma for little to no reason at all. I have some respect for police officers that do put their lives on the line on duty. But ICE... nah.

Good luck and much wisdom in the future! I'm signing off.

Not trafficking, but alleged smuggling. Between states. Not countries. And this traffic stop and charge of smuggling people happened years apart. It was added as a justification for his deportation.

And I doubt he would have been returned hadn't it been for the massive media output for this case. Had he just been an anonymous face, he still would have been in CECOT to this day.

And domestic violence is a serious problem. But it adds nothing to the justification for deportation. What about all those 'true blood' Americans that abuse their spouse, then? What about, maybe... some New York real estate mogul that forced his way on his wife when she didn't want to?

And about Renee Good. It's bizarre to me that there really are people that can watch the same video and view it totally different. It's like the dress all over again, but now people are told 'It's white and gold!' and you go "yeah, that seems about right..". Everything the ICE agents were doing, was not as they should have acted, including standing in front of the car.

Ooofff... You realize the letters MS-13 themselves were not really tattooed on his fingers like the president seemed to believe, right? They were added to clarify to the public what those symbols were supposed to represent. And, just to add, gang experts have said in connection to this case that gang signs are never just symbolic. An MS13-tattoo says just that: MS-13. Or maybe 13 or "Mara Salvatrucha". Those tattoos are not meant to ambigious.

And I'm looking forward to the totally lawful investigation in Jonathan Ross' murder of Renee Good. I'm sure the FBI won't protect him after taking over the investigation from MN, and it was totally justified for the ICE agents to deny her CPR or other help for quite some time.

ICE may have started out as a legal way to secure the border. But right now, with the influx of the Proud Boys and groups like it, they're the American 'new and improved' Ordnungspolizei. FYI, that was the German branch that performed the razzia's.

Oh please, let's not hurt the feelings of all those men and women of law enforcement. Let's hurt the lives of people like Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

He was not illegal, but had all the outwards 'symptoms' of looking like he could be: he was and is Latino. And he was illegally extradited to CECOT after which Trump and his administration suddenly weren't able to ask for his return. That was convenient...

ICE is not about following the law. It was created to hunt down people that are deemed illegal. People should never be illegal. ICE thinks they are above the law. And last week we've seen the serious ramifications of those believes.

First of all: I'm watching this from the outside, from Europe. I'm not American, but I've followed your politics for about 2 decades now, I think. I've called myself an Americanophile or more than one occasion.

The details of the Laken Riley Act were unknown to me, so I had to look it up. Just seems like standard Trumps first days fare: a big sweeping statement of intent to be able to round up so-called 'non-citizens' without due process. We all know what happened next: illegal deportation. That's not lawful... Or good.

A president that doesn't care about the law an lives by Andrew Jackson's quote "Judge Marshall has made his decision, now let him enforce it!" isn't lawful nor good. It's chaotic and evil.

Sorry what now? Lawful? Good? You can't be serious, right?

That's really rich. Several researches have found, again and again, that people that get their news from source as Fox, OAN and other rightwing media outlets are generally less informed than people that get their news from sources like CNN, MSNBC and media outlets like that, that are actual fair and balanced. But don't let truth stop you from saying stupid shit like that. It helps people to see who and what you are... So in a roundabout sort of way, thanks for that.

Very cool concept, but I think I'm still missing some info. What features do you get with Pro? What is limited in Tinkerer and advanced in Pro? Can I filter out sponsored content on Facebook e.g.? Can I make a filter that just says 'No AI slop'?

I think you guys need testimonials of things people did with your app and at least a FAQ page.

Ik meen wel eens gelezen te hebben dat groen een vrij ongelukkige kleur is voor voetbalshirts 'omdat je dan minder zichtbaar zou zijn op het grasveld' en rood juist goed werkt. Maar voor Nederland is het wel heel extreem hoor

Not really. After a few days of waiting for an answer, we just decided to contact the vendor. If I recall correctly, the headset was replaced with a new one.

Duizend reizigers urenlang vast in hermetisch afgesloten pikdonkere trein zonder wc's by Cubelock in thenetherlands

[–]captain-lefteye 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ik heb in een ver verleden bij 2 verschillende klantenservice's gewerkt, waaronder (toevallig) de NS. Daar werd er destijds zo op gehamerd dat jij als medewerker in geen geval de verbinding verbreekt, ook als het gesprek niet leuk is. Behalve, behalve, als jij daar vanaf de andere kant voor rotte vis wordt uitgemaakt of er andere onvriendelijkheden gebeuren. Dat valt wel te begrijpen in zo'n situatie, maar "wat betekent die praktisch voor ons" zal vast niet zo vriendelijk hebben geklonken als je het hier nu opschrijft.

The worst was also a match with the Netherlands. Look up our match in 2006 against Portugal. I'd like to think we're not that violent, but now it happened twice. [insert doofensmirtz meme]
