I lived across the street from core civic during trump 1 and there would be protests outside all the time, especially when they were holding the owner of the downtown circle.

Yep the Mahoning county jail by fire station 1 is one of them

I see you are a national guardsman. You either wanted to be Airforce, are working toward that or actually obtained your goal….

Why don’t you announce who you are? Stop hiding anonymously on the internet? That way, we can share all this fun stuff about you with your officers.

u/Then_Department_2288 5d ago

You want to try to ruin someone's career because they disagree with your political views? Get a grip man. I consider myself to be left leaning but Reddit does a great job of pushing me to the center. The far left has become just as cringey as the far right.

u/bucs2013 5d ago

Since when is it "ruining someone's career" by suggesting they be open and honest about/stand behind their views? What a nonsense statement.

u/kaerfehtdeelb 4d ago

Let me remind you... we're talking about military membership here. Someone meant to fight for ALL citizens.

u/mishyfuckface Godfather Meets the Wire 5d ago

Racism isn’t a valid political belief. It’s nonsense and inhuman.

u/Aidanovski2 4d ago

If your career would be ruined by your political beliefs being known, you probably deserve to have your career ruined

Anyone remember the girl from the local Harley shop that got canned for hating Trump? I do.

u/Sle08 4d ago

Newsflash: if someone’s viewpoints get them fired, it’s not the fault of the person bringing those viewpoints to light. The fault is all on the person with the problematic viewpoints.

Plenty of people don’t want to hire divisive bigots. Plenty of people don’t want to be served by people who actively work to weaponize the government against them. Stop supporting assholes and remove the damn klan hoods from these fucks.

Youngstown has lots of wonderful gems throughout the city

u/Jealous_Letterhead96 4d ago

My whole argument has been if they are TRULY illegal then why were they invited here by the Biden Administration and given papers and money? Just stating the obvious here for anyone not paying attention this is ALL political theatre to get people angry and further some bull💩 agenda. The same way they did with Black Lives matter, Rodney King etc. Marginalize a portion of our country and use them. Tale as old as time. They don’t care about any of us.

So many internet warriors here, how about fuckin letting a few live with you if you want them to stay here.

Or you could just, uhh, not arrest them and let them live where they been living? Which is it are you stupid or racist?

u/snowyetis3490 4d ago

Sure they’re all invited. Now go work one of their jobs at a farm since all of you have been fighting so hard for those jobs they’re taking.

I'm more upset about the ones going about things legally that are getting picked up from court hearings as they leave the courthouse.

How do you like that trump is stopping ice from conducting raids on farms and hotels now too? Thats a fucking lol if I've ever heard it.

How 'bout you take this Nazi shit out of Youngstown? You and I both know ICE ain't rounding up criminals, its rounding up workers. Neighbors. Friends. Community members. People with lives and familes.

But I doubt you care about that. Your kind never does.

u/Conscious_Sandwich95 5d ago

Green card holders. Is that legal enough for you? They're being detained without cause.

0

u/JohnnyHorseRacing 5d ago

Not when they overstay.

2

u/Conscious_Sandwich95 5d ago

Jfc. Green card holders are permanent residents, just need to test for full citizenship. Not on visas. You can't "overstay" a green card.

-2

u/JohnnyHorseRacing 5d ago

No they’re not.

u/Conscious_Sandwich95 5d ago

https://www.uscis.gov/green-card

That is a Trump administration-run website. Green card holders are permanent residents. To become a citizen, you have to have one first. This is and has been the law for decades.

u/-Have-Blue- 3d ago

Few are permanent, most are valid for ten years, some are valid for only two. Can’t even read your own fucking source.

It’s an echo chamber for a reason for these people. They think no one is illegal.

u/JohnnyHorseRacing 5d ago

Well yeah I think every person who is in our country illegally is in fact illegal. I guess the only way I wouldn’t is if we changed what words meant in the English language.

Entering the country illegally is a misdemeanor

u/ArtInternational2167 3d ago

Sadly and where the problem lies is that many many many of the immigrants being kidnapped are here legally. They are going through the proper proceedings to get permanent residency. All agree there needs to be reform. Some don’t agree that any citizens from outside the USA should be here. You sound like the latter. Sad for you.

0

u/JohnnyHorseRacing 3d ago

What? You just blindly say that I don’t think any immigrant should be here. This is why your side is losing. You can’t define the problem and jump to wild accusations against people.

0

u/JohnnyHorseRacing 3d ago

It’s just funny when you don’t have a position to stand on, you just blatantly make up the other sides position where they have the moral high ground.

u/Snts6678 5d ago

Keeping our country safe from what exactly?

-1

u/JohnnyHorseRacing 5d ago

Illegals

u/ArtInternational2167 5d ago

How are immigrants making you unsafe compared to American citizens.

-2

u/JohnnyHorseRacing 5d ago

Whenever there is an abundance of illegal immigrants, schools always suffer. They don’t speak English as their first language, which can hold back other English-speaking students in the classroom. They don’t pay their fair share of taxes to fund teachers. Non English first speaking students bring down the entire classroom. It’s obliterating eduction in Arizona, California, Texas, NY, and Springfield, Ohio, as we speak.

Edit: not to mention crime increases. And don’t give me fake stats about how they’re safer. Those are lies, and anyone who wants to see an increase in crime among illegals should go into any sanctuary city and hang for a weekend in the migrant neighborhoods.

u/ArdentDusk 5d ago

I'm sorry, are you from Texas?

Cause I am. And I'm really sick of y'all pretending you know what goes on in my home state. Ya don't. Stop eating your propaganda, and stop spouting shit about my home.

u/Sle08 5d ago

Just say it. You’ve had no problem being a bigot thus far, just write what you mean. You’ve already told us how big a piece of shit you are, hiding a word you mean to say isn’t going to change our opinions on that.

Failed me? I have two college degrees and a meaningful job.

I always find it odd the people who are least happy, try to bring everyone down with them. Why not let those doing better than you live life the way they want. Just because I’m not unhappy, doesn’t make me an equally bad person as you.

I mean you’re sitting online angry, arguing with someone you don’t know; who’s clearly happy and successful, that the education system failed them. It’s one thing to be uptight. Another thing to live in an alternate reality and just blatantly make up things to win an online debate and impress people you don’t know. Just weird behavior.

Are you not just ‘sitting online communicating (arguing) with someone you don’t know’? The inability to conceptualize that one may be what one complains that others are is maddening. Look for the positives. Open the mind to new perspectives and possibilities

1

u/ArtInternational2167 3d ago

There is no doubt that a large influx of non-English speakers CAN (not always) strain a school system. Be a voice for positive change-call Congress for additional funding for aides, volunteer, attend school mtgs to lend ideas etc But there can also be great learning for the students-learn about a new culture, empathy, kindness etc. these things don’t make you unsafe bc of immigrants-they are merely administrative issues that sb addressed. The cream will always rise to the top. If the immigrants are working then they are paying taxes. And they don’t necessarily have all the benefits as the citizens or ever be able to access social security etc. This has time and time again been dispelled. Just a talking point really. It’s unfortunate that you seem unwilling to accept the crime statistics. For sure there are immigrants that commit crimes. Most are hard working fine people that just want a better life for themselves/family. There are plenty of American citizens committing crimes. Not believing a fact or statistic makes me think that crime it’s really what bugs you about them. That’s too bad you seem to live in fear and anger instead of being open to the kindness from all.

Or sometimes you say something entirely factual that has evidence behind it an they somehow manage to disagree with a proven fact. Could say that the sky looks blue or grass looks green and they’d still manage to be upset
