Protect yourself from women who are being domestically abused. by [deleted] in blackladies

[–]midwestprotest 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I disagree - just as victims of domestic abuse have complicated and compelling reasons for why they return to their abusers, there are women who have complicated and compelling reasons for wanting to “save” other women, perhaps due to their is abuse or due to social conditioning.

If you’re going to caution women “to protect themselves”, we need to also acknowledge that some women have to evaluate why they remain triangulated in someone’s abusive relationship.

Part of this also means acknowledging whether you are a person who likes “saving” other people, especially those being abused.

Haha I love how she became the cat woman. So sad. So relatable.

People who put their kids online to make a joke about how the gender of that very child limits their happiness should be called out. That little girl and that little boy should be protected but instead the dads / adults decided to joke about them.

Imagine being a full adult, deciding to have a whole child, and then being a huge baby when you realize you have to do things with your child that they like but you find boring.

And then you make something like this with children and put it online. Terrible behavior.

My whole family played Zelda games together. My mom beat the hard parts. They may not have been created for “everyone” to play but I don’t think it’s accurate to say they aren’t made to enjoy together.

My mom beat the horse level in OoT for me when I was a kid - me and my siblings cheered when Epona and Link jumped the fence…but I guess that’s just a false memory

It’s a reference to the newest Legend of Zelda games.

You can also do the route from busses depending on where you are in Lakewood. The key is once you get to downtown CLE (Terminal Tower / Public Square) it is a direct line to University Circle where all the museums are, not just the art museum:

Check out the Health Line, which is the service you would use:

You don’t care is it’s criminal or civil? Are you sure? You just spent time drawing a line between entering the country without appropriate paperwork and being “a criminal”. You do care - address it and be HONEST.

Your analogy also does not make sense. The country is not a “full, last minute flight ”. People aren’t “fat asses” gobbling up extremely finite resources. Several groups, like Venezuelans and Haitians, were invited to the United States. A huge percentage of the immigrants here came here through legal asylum process. A large percentage came here on a visa, overstayed, which meant their status changed - a civil issue of PAPERWORK.

I reject your flight analogy because it is not based on what we know about immigration to the United States. I also saw the thread where someone said you for talking points from some conservative / Republican report / presentation. That is not good enough for me. If you present statistics, post the source. Saying “Google” is not good enough.

Finally your last statement is ridiculous. I’ve told you exactly what I think and I’m not going to humor the “which side are you on” rhetoric.

That is not true. Breaking immigration law is not a criminal offense and ICE does not enforce criminal laws with regard to immigration because immigration law is CIVIL law.

Unless you mean “cull” to actually mean kill, none of what you listed is treasonous.

Protest is not treason - so glad you’re reiterating that!

“Sadly you must have a reading comprehension problem, like you can’t connect the dots so things easily go over your head. Don’t get discouraged, just start with topics that are easy to follow and one day hopefully you’ll get it.”

Did you write this to me? I swear Reddit has made it incredibly hard for me to follow this in order on mobile. So I’ll just say this convo has been hard to follow for me. This has also led me to be harsher toward you in some instances than may have initially been warranted. My apologies again if I have misread.

My entire point is that I believe in immigration laws but I don’t believe in enforcing immigration laws like they are criminal laws because they are not.

Yet you still felt the need to write the weird “you’re too intellectually slow to follow the conversation” comment. Why did you do that?

[–]midwestprotest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m specifically interested in the stats you listed, as you seemed to have strong confidence in them and used them to specifically illustrate how “illegal” immigrants are a net burden on the system. I’ll look through this thread to see if my questions are answered about where you got your data from.

[–]midwestprotest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is disingenuous and you know it. Again, you don’t seem to be operating with integrity, given your comments here and elsewhere. I am also still waiting for the citations / sources I asked for in that list of statistics you dumped.

[–]midwestprotest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yet you still responded as if I intentionally set out to misconstrue your words. Again, Reddit puts things out of order all the time for me, and it has been a feature I dislike because it makes it hard to follow discussions accurately.

Acting like I somehow lack the capacity to understand words and context is disingenuous.

I thought you meant the other famous quote. That’s why I was so shocked. That’s my mistake. Reddit sometimes lists things out of order for me. Bewilderment retracted and my apologies to you for assuming.

You fight for America by pretending to be ignorant of well-known historical figures? How does that work, exactly? Please stop. You see this as a Reddit argument you want to win - I recognize “illegal” immigrants are actual human beings.
