Yardies at Home and a Farrin (part16)

[sus 70]

If he is LOC, he will most likely sneak though. They are very slow at actually taking chargs to court. If he were to have his GC, he is probably lucky for the next 9 or so years. Renewing could pose a problem. He may also have issues with citizenship if he tries. Seriously, though......if charges strong enough and jail time stiff enough, he could be deported. It would have to be fairly serious though.

Actually, it's unreal as to what can put you in deportation - all it takes is a conviction of a charge that COULD have resulted in more than 1 year of jail time - literally, 366 days -

I worked a pro bono case a few years ago - 80 year old immigrant, came over here in college, got his GC, married, had kids, grandkids, greatgrands, owned houses, businesses, etc.... His kids kept pressing him to apply for citizenship = so he did - they placed him in deportation proceedings, based on two convictions from when he was in college - one for shoplifting a piece of meet, the other for a drunk and disorderly -

see it deh..wow! do u know if he in fact did get deported?

[dancehallquana 5]

i know how it is, u just feel like u gotta save that man.. or u owe him something, u can' t leave him cuz then what will he do, and he really does wanna do better, its just his temper or not having a job or being frustrated that causes him to act up..

women have such a hard time putting themselves first.. even w/ the beating, she is making excuses for him.. hoping that it will get better so they can be happy again.. we have to quit being a saviour to everybody.. me included.. and let the chips fall where they may.. ya'll all have helped me w/ this this year..

Nope, we fought the deportation charges and won, he got his citizenship - But someone without good legal representation would have been gone -

Morning Yardies!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JG !!!

My daughter was born in the wrong decade...she is a hippie at heart. Told us we had to get rid of our microwave....she is nuts

Tell her a microwave uses less fossil fuel than re-heating things on the stove because it takes less energy to use the microwave to re-heat & is therefore more energy efficient & environmentally friendly!

It's ALWAYS hard , but I think it's worse (atleast it was for me) when you don't have definite plans to go back. To me, without a countdown date to look forward to then I just felt like I was never going to see him again and felt horrible.

I felt the same way when I wasn't sure when we'd have our interview....just a little lost.

Morning all!!!

Happy Birthday JG!!! Have a great day!!!!

I'll be posting pictures of Quana and Roger, on here so she can see them since she don't have FB... wish me luck on remembering how, lol!

MrsBuggy, what happened to hubby? I see your new avatar pic & no one asked? Did you do like I do to my mister & accidentally elbow him in bed one night??

My initial reaction to the site was wow all this information... and the yardie thread at first i didnt talk i just read then i needed to know something i jumped in and i was hooked .

Are you sick, girl? If I don't see your posts in ALL CAPS something is wrong!!!!

I think her CAPS LOCK got 'un-stuck' & she can type normal again....or she got a new keyboard like I've been telling her to do!

I didn't have a microwave for a few weeks when I first moved in to my house. Never realized how much you depend on one of those till you don't have it.

okay...heading to my flexibility class/bruck up class...made sure I didn't eat anything that would give me gas this time, last week was a disaster... Yoga/mediation -- when I get back from Jamaica I start lunch time basketball in my old age

hubby knows this guys who he knew from ja (not a friend but they know a lot of the same pple)who now lives here with his wife about an hour from us. the dude has been here almost 3 years, has no job, and just runs the streets and smokes weed.

when i first heard about this guy i thought oh great someone for hubby to connect with from ja we should meet up. so dude and wife came over for the first time like 6 months ago or so. immediately my spirit did not take them but i felt a little sorry for them. they hung out for a while and wifey confided in me and told me that he beats her and wanted my husband to talk to her husband about it.

i told her to dump him, he is not gonna change. she continues to be with him and they have all these problems and he keeps taking off on her. she calls us because she thinks he is hiding out at our house (which he isn't and we never even talk to him).

so 2 weeks ago she calls me to tell me he is in jail for beating her up and his bail is $1,600 and she only has $600 and can she borrow $1000 from me. i say hell no and let his azz sit in jail and i tell her one day he is gonna kill you.

remember, i don't even know this woman other than her coming over one time and her calling us for help. i feel bad for being mean to her but what else am i supposed to say/do?

I think you did exactly the right thing in this situation.

Wow, I had to go back and look, I did miss that!

Ells, did I ever tell you my grandmother's story? She was dreaming she was being mugged, and the guy had her arms and legs held down - so she did the only thing she could think of and bit him - She bit my grandpa right in the back, drew blood and all!

Kimmy --- u done wah u afi do so u can guh ome n finish pack

[finesse 3]

so let's say somebody gets convicted of drunk driving and the sentence could be more than a year but they only do 1 month. how do the deportation proceedings begin? how does the immigration people know you were convicted?
