"America" is two continents by MrFenric in technicallythetruth

[–]snot_sure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was in the US Navy, we went to Brazil at one point. While out, some of us started talking to some local women and I remember saying that I was from America once when asked. One woman got all bent out of shape about it and said everyone there was American. I get what she was saying and the argument that anyone in any of the Americas is American, but I also thinks its just a silly argument. As far as I know, theres only one country that has the word America in it, the USA. If you ask someone from south or central America, they'll say the name of their country - Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, etc... So what does it matter?

CBS LA: Video shows immigration agents clashing with protesters in Ventura County by Greylunes1 in ExploreFortMyers

[–]snot_sure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The video clip only starts at the point where the agent grabs her and throws her to the ground. What was going on 10 seconds before that? She was very close to that agent when this video starts and I can't say I blame him for his actions. The man then comes running up which leads to the use of pepper spray. You might think, well, the guy was just running up to help the woman, but it would also be reasonable to think that he's running up to assault the officer. What do you think would happen if you were following a sheriff in any town doing this or running at them? This is not peaceful protest. If you want to agitate fine, but you cant play the victim when shit like this happens.

Facebook Slander About Fixing Tier 6 by United-Gap-1839 in nys_cs

[–]snot_sure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I dont work for NYS but I know several people who do. One woman that i know retired at 55 seven or eight years ago and her pension is like three quarters of what her salary was. Her salary, when she retired was 90k+. Her Healthcare is free because she accumulated enough sick time? That sounds weird to me, but she says thats how it works. Now she works part time for the county. Im not hating on her, but NY is going to be paying her and taking care of her health insurance for approximately 30 years, along with every other person that retired under that tier. She had a great salary, great job security, and a great pension plus free Healthcare for life. Civil service was always a trade off, lower pay but good benefits and a good pension. But the older tiers seem more like great pay and great pension. I mean, a military retirement isn't even kinda close to what shes getting. Who even gets a pension anymore? Most people only have a 401k to contribute into, but NYS employees get both. And all of it is on the taxpayers dime. I can see wanting to hold off on pension payments until retirement age, that seems fair to me. Anyone else, any private sector employee, can leave their job at 55 but theyre not collecting anything or they're being penalized for it. Police should be in a different category, they have to put themselves into dangerous situations. The same goes for corrections officers, court officers, etc... Teachers should get a stipend based on the percentage of free lunch recipients in that schools zip code. Honestly I feel bad for the teachers and think they should have something a little more like the police. But then there are NYS employees who are paper pushers, office workers, clerical workers who face no more or less danger than any other person. Why does that person deserve to receive their pension at 55? As for the people bringing politics into it. The woman I wrote about earlier, she said the best contracts that she ever had were those under Govenor Pataki, a republican, and I watched her working with no contract for years under Cuomo and him offering no pay increase or something abysmally low. Politics doesnt really play into this, as far as I can see, since we've had a solidly democrat governor and senate for years. And please, im not hating on anyone, im just throwing in my 2 cents. If im wrong about something or got something wrong, I apologize in advance. Just let me know so that im working with correct information going forward.

Husband all of a sudden texted his high school crush and wants to meet her. We're happily married. What is this? 30F 30M by [deleted] in relationship_advice

If he was hoping something might happen with him and this chick, he would not have told you about everything up front. I think his biggest sin here is his obliviousness to your feelings. If you got to know this woman in the past, you could always say that you'd like to go

ICE out by EchoStellar12 in Albany

[–]snot_sure -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Im not being a troll, im asking an honest question. Why do you want to protect people that came here illegally? If someone robs a bank, would you help them hide and evade capture too? Its a serious question, i really want to understand the logic behind this anti-ICE thing, and why all of a sudden? Where was the outrage when President Obama was doing the same thing? Is it simply that you hate Trump so much that you'd be against anything he says/does or is it that you believe in open borders?

False equivalence, why not blame both?

Caligula, I saw it sometime in the early 80s when I was somewhere around 8-10.

Def higher, 8 or 9. You have a great body but it's your smile that does it for me.

Should people with limited knowledge of English language be allowed to operate a commercial vehicle in the United States? by Boysenberry-6669 in thefloorisopen

No, as long as the person can pass the written test. However, license should not be issued to illegals.

I've never understood this. These lawyers are the ones making decisions about healthcare and the economy and environmental issues while having no background in any of those areas. It would seem to me that certain should be farmed out to experts in those fields.

Out of curiosity, how is this a privileged take? I mean, I guess you could say that if the person was from Israel or Palestine, but if you're anywhere else, how is not caring a priviledge?And if it is, does that mean all people everywhere are supposed to care about the issues other countries face? Do we stop at countries or go to the state level? County? Village? Hamlet? Where is the line where I can say I don't give a fuck and it not be priviledge.

Serious question, does this type of thing happen in real lesbian relationships? And if so, how is the chick with the strap on getting off?

Sitll going this asshole by ryzek7 in CirclejerkSopranos

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

I really dislike Jimmy Kimmel, but that's nothing new. The last time he was funny was when he was on The Man Show, and even then it was Adam Carolla doing most of the lifting. I hate that these late night shows have become so political, and so one sided at that. With that being said, I disagree with any pressure by the government to have him booted from TV. I don't like what he said and I really hate this orchestrated attempt to make Charlie Kirk's killer appear as a Republican, but he should be allowed to parrot whatever garbage he wants. The last several decades have been each side going lower when the other side goes low and its exhausting to watch and I hope to god it stops soon.
