Politics What is your favorite shithole country?

Because he reminds you of the stupid rich kid who'd always buys the keg at all the parties? I always thought that was his appeal.

 

To Be Clear:

What Is Temporary Protected Status?

The Secretary of Homeland Security may designate a foreign country for TPS due to conditions in the country that temporarily prevent the country's nationals from returning safely, or in certain circumstances, where the country is unable to handle the return of its nationals adequately. USCIS may grant TPS to eligible nationals of certain countries (or parts of countries), who are already in the United States. Eligible individuals without nationality who last resided in the designated country may also be granted TPS.


The Secretary may designate a country for TPS due to the following temporary conditions in the country:

• Ongoing armed conflict (such as civil war)
• An environmental disaster (such as earthquake or hurricane), or an epidemic
• Other extraordinary and temporary conditions

In other words, a shithole country.

 

All of them. I'm a humanist.

Mexican journalist Javier Valdez lies on the street after he was shot dead in Sinaloa, Mexico, on May 15, 2017. The U.S. State Department is telling Americans to completely avoid five Mexican states because of rising crime and violence.

The U.S. State Department is warning Americans not to travel to five Mexican states, issuing a "do not travel" advisory.

"Violent crime, such as homicide, kidnapping, carjacking, and robbery, is widespread," the State Department said in the notice Thursday.

As a result, the department says the frequency of the attacks by criminal organizations in the states of Sinaloa, Colima, Michoacan, Guerrero and Tamaulipas has "limited the U.S. government's ability to provide emergency services to citizens in the states." And, in many cases, not even Mexican officials can do much to protect or prevent the widespread scourge of lawlessness against American travelers.

Armed groups frequently maintain roadblocks in many areas of Guerrero. A number of Mexico's most violent criminal organizations are based in and operate out of Sinaloa. The streets of Tamualipas are often the scene of gang-led gun battles, while armed criminal groups target public and private passenger buses, often taking passengers hostage and demanding ransom payments.

Violence On Pace To Reach Record Highs In Mexico

• 
  But not all parts of Mexico are covered under the warning. Sixteen of the country's 32 states received a level-two "exercise caution" warning, the department's second-lowest advisory. Citizens were told to "reconsider travel" to another 11 states.

  Number Of Journalists Killed In Mexico Reaches 'Historical High,' Report Says
  Mexico reached record levels of deadly violence in 2017, making it the bloodiest year in the country's modern history, notes The Guardian. The first 11 months of the year brought 23,101 murder investigations, surpassing the 22,409 registered in the whole of 2011, when the country was in the depths of rampant inter-cartel warfare, says Business Insider.
  
  And as NPR's Carrie Kahn reports, outside of global conflict zones, Mexico takes the No. 1 spot for journalists murdered in 2017. The Paris-based Reporters Without Borders says Mexico is the "Western Hemisphere's deadliest country for the media."
  

 

Bring em on home!!!! Bring em all on home....

 

So I'm guessin' you're not headin' south for the winter?

 

I’m not a supporter and haven’t been but I wanted to give him a chance. I’m sure those people feel differently a year later after all the crazy shit he’s said and if not then they are just holding on for team right wing

 

No new Norwegians are made in America.

Anyone who is born in America is automatically a Real American Citizen.

 

I never said that I didn't dislike Bush.
I just honestly can't stand our current president, as a person. I've met others that share his personality traits, and they are my least favorite type of person.

 

Mexico is great, if you live like the top 1% of the people in the country when you are on vacay there.

 

Boo

 

If you mean Mexico, no, never had any desire since my 1 walk-in trip to Tijuana back in '77.

But we're looking into a couple trips to sunnier climes, Costa Rica and Aruba. CR has some pretty lawless areas but looks like a lot of cultural history, Aruba mainly has nice beaches.

That is the total sum of what I know about each at this early stage and would appreciate any info anyone can share.

 

Adelitas, bro

 

So uh, didn't anyone watch the video and see that staggering number of Americans living in poverty?

It's in the thread we were just talking about. http://www.sportstwo.com/threads/stop-blaming-the-poor.325657/

 

Don't most Mexicans hate El Salvadorans?

 

Poverty in America = middle class in shithole countries.

 

I have a good friend who's Costa Rican...his family rents motorcycles around Lake Arunal I think..I was there in the early 70s and it was my favorite place in Central America...stay out of the capital and you'll be fine...the bad guys in Costa Rica are Nicaraguan or Panamanian most likely and urban in nature..most of Costa Rica is really safe and easy going

 

Not everywhere....the west is best...just like here

 

Boo is 70s slang for pot....but you knew that
