So i just got this message when i attempted to update my voter registration.
This is a lie. I became a naturalized citizen in 2005. Drove all the way to Memphis Tennessee for the ceremony.
I have voted in 2 elections; i have an American passport I’ve traveled with, and i have gone to the Department of safety and homeland security to update all information, last time i did was 2 years ago when i needed a copy of my social security card.
So, a warning to all naturalized citizens inTennessee , check your status now!! https://ovr.govote.tn.gov/Registration
Something is happening. update
I have confirmed others that are having this issue. Folks, this is Not a drill!!
Check your statuses. update 2
Still trying to find answers. After calling the Department of homeland security and safety, i was told by the representative that he didn’t know what was happening and would like to refer me to an “immigration officer”. The wait time is 57 minutes. The office closed in 17 minutes.
I will try again on Monday.
Until then, i am taking my passport with me Everywhere!! EVERYWHERE!!!
That reminds me of my friends who always calls the military the “killitary”. Upon which I always remind her both my parents are from countries occupied by the Nazis, and that we’re very grateful to the Allied military for liberating us.
Yeah, it’s a complex issue. On one hand, the US Armed Forces are the embodiment of imperialism. On the other hand they’ve helped block and destroy more evil empires. Not every soldier is a callous killer, but the collateral damage inflicted as a result of imperialism is still in living memory.
It says something about the state of the union that our congressional representatives are giving speeches like this, urging protests and impeachment despite death threats:
“I know that there are those who are talking about censuring me, talking about kicking me out of Congress, talking about shooting me, talking about hanging me,” Waters added.
“All I have to say is this: If you shoot me, you’d better shoot straight. There’s nothing like a wounded animal. I am prepared to make whatever sacrifices need to be made.”
Also, if you watch the video (which I highly recommend - it is an inspirational speech) note the scroll at the bottom around 6:33. WTF is this really just now happening in 2018?!?
Three senators introduce bill to make lynching a federal hate crime. Measures to criminalize lynching have repeatedly failed and congress is now prepared to correct the failure.
Things like this and the mayor and police of Portland refusing to help the feds are indicators that we may be approaching an inflection point.
Also, why does anyone think the “staff member” excuse (a.k.a. “we fired the intern”) is any excuse at all? The buck stops with him. Besides, this isn’t the first time this has happened with him, not by a long shot. Somehow I think this isn’t a problem with the “staff members” but a problem with Ron Paul himself.
There’s an old saying in Tennessee — I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can’t get fooled again.
This is horrific. An avowed Nazi running for Congress. To the good people of Illinois, you have two reasonable choices: write in another candidate, or vote for the Democrat. This bigoted fool should receive ZERO votes. https://t.co/9WYlvCMKaF

Nazis still have a bad odor about them, so to speak, so they don’t like the label. But it’s funny they never complain about white supremacists.
And I detest this business of “we’ll lose our culture!” Culture changes all the time. They should just look at their kids. Sometimes I can barely understand young people. Their kids’ culture is going to be vastly different than theirs.
If you want to preserve values, traditions and legends that are important to you…
It helps if anyone can join them, so it’s not exclusionary to join them.
It helps if people can rework and reinterpret them.
It helps if people can participate in them.
Which is going to help people relate to, for example, English traditions?
A role-playing game about resisting Viking raids
Condemning Robin Hood as loudly as possible as often as possible: “I don’t think we should be subsidizing Foxxcon!” “Robin Hood! you’re a fucking Robin Hood, steeling from the rich and sending them to Siberian gulags…”
This is bad. One of the few avenues these folks had, and it’s being taken away from them, quietly, so no one notices. Also, think of what subset of soldiers might be prone to have some sympathy to immigrants being kept in camps, guarded by the military. Who might resist efforts at dehumanisation.
