Domodedovo Terror Attack: Expedite for Russia?

[DiZZyLoX 114]

This is my last post on this topic. If I am not allowed to be angry and express my anger over this absolute worst governmental decision since Jimmy Carter created the thermostat police in 1979, I will do here what I do in my offline world: Pretend that everything is just fine and hide the fact that I am ready to explode.

Happy now?

Yep.

Yesterday, January 24, there was a devastating terror attack in Domodedovo Airport in Moscow. 35 people were killed and dozens more wounded. The terrorist group responsible for this is still at large.

I do not want my bride to live in a country where there is an active terrorist group on the loose that made a mass strike in an airport she uses all of the time.

So since fiances from a country where you might get cholera all get expedites, why shouldn't fiances who are in danger of being blown up by terrorists get them too?

Let's hear from other VJ members with Russian fiances. How do we make this happen?

Seriously dude, you need to calm down. Does it suck that we have to wait so long on getting NOA2? Yes. Yes it does. I will hit 6 months on Saturday, and I know others who have waited even longer. We all knew it was going to be a long tough road, but guess what??? We CHOSE to do this. No one forced you to file for a K-1 visa. I completely understand missing your loved one, I haven't seen mine since October, and will not see him again until we get married (whenever that is) because it's so darn expensive to travel back and forth. So believe me, I feel your pain and frustration. But seriously. You need to calm down and remember that you're not the only person in the world. If all the people in war-torn countries, or places that had had terrorist attacks etc got expedites, there would be THOUSANDS more petitions that would "cut in line" before yours. So guess what? You'd still be in the same boat you are now. And speaking of boats, quit rocking this one and leave well enough alone. Kthxbai!

I have but one objective and one objective only: ..................... I will do here what I do in my offline world: Pretend that everything is just fine and hide the fact that I am ready to explode.

Happy now?

Good darn thing you're not sitting in the Domodedovo Airport!

I am sorry for starting this thread and offending so many people. That was not my intention. I was angry with VSC (what else is new?) and since that anger is inversely proportional to the amount of activity at VSC and there was ZERO activity for the 5th consecutive day, that anger was totally out of control.

But I was wrong to take that anger out on this board, as it is my problem and not any of yours. Again, I am sorry.

I thought long and hard as to whether to post here any more, as there were the usual assortment of mockery posts, but when I saw the ever increasing firestorm by people I consider as good members, I simply had to try to put out the firestorm I wrongly started.

My intention, which seems to have been lost in the haze of my anger, was to dramatize the point that almost any country could make a credible claim for humanitarian expedite status, so it is arbitrary and short sighted to single one country out for that status and hang the rest of them out to dry.

Please do not tell me to not be angry any more. I know I need to not be angry, but that is about as helpful as telling a clinically depressed person, who knows he should not be depressed, to simply snap out of it and not be depressed any longer.

I do not harbor a belief that I am the only one being cheated by the government. I believe that all of us are being cheated. I do my best to encourage others here to stand up for their rights, but I can't help seeing this race to visa land as a competition. All of my life, everything was a competition and everything I have is as a result of winning that competition. So can you see why I feel driven endlessly to compete against everyone else for that elusive visa?

I will control my own anger from now on by refraining from posting my opinion anywhere on this board. I will limit myself to the facts.

And for those of you who don't know this, trying to explain to an angry person that he is wrong will solve nothing, as it will only cause him to dig in his heels and defend his position even harder than he has already done. Just ignore such a person.

Please stop the firestorm.

[Ally & Rach 24]

Al, although you seem to be a bit of an eccentric I like reading most of your posts and am vocal in my support.. however I think you've gone way over the line with this rant.. Im really hoping it was said in the heat of the moment and after youve calmed down you'll regret it..

PS.. Is it true Vermont are about to release a statement stating that if A1422 doesn't calm down they are relocating to Area51 for there own safety?;0)

I wish you all the best Al and hope you get good news soon..

This is an absolutely disgusting thread. I can't believe the original post was even made and actually SERIOUS.

He's apologized so I would think others would let it go.

[ilovemybaby 9]

No. And where have you heard of expedites for K-1s in countries with cholera?

lol.

[Penny Lane 8,159]

This user has a tendency to make outlandish posts and remarks, then blame his anger.

Then he'll do the same thing again, just with a different topic.

A never ending cycle of rage.

Al, well..!

It's unreasonable of you to expect such a favor from the USCIS. There is just as much anger, depression, frustration for a lot a people who are going through this process, I can assure you that. In my opinion the attack at this airport in Russia shouldn't be used as a reason for your case to be expedited. This attack has more serious issues attached which need to addressed globally, and there are people who have suffered way more than you have because of this attack. I understand your anger, please be patient. I wish you all the best.

Hi Mari,

And yes this is for you

I am really inactive on this website. I love a lot of lovely people on here though because they are so helpful and understanding of each others circumstances that it helps me go through this entire process with a little less stress. And yes, I said stress.

Hold on to your thought, I know you want to start typing. But wait. Not yet.

You made me actually read each and every post in this thread and lemme tell you this. You have blown it out of proportion, so much so that you have made an angry guy even more angry and you have done a great of job of adding some guilt to his already angry heart.

So, here I request you to answer things you've asked Al,

1. Are you not selfish ?

2. Have you ever been scared ?

3. Do you have any fear ?

4. Do you ever panic ?

5. Have you ever had problems with how things works (just in general)?

6. Have you ever felt helpless ?

7. Have you ever offended anyone ?

Al, just did all of this at once when he started this thread, but that's it. A lot of us have such emotions every now and then. Calm down. Please

Mari and Kadir, I wish you guys all the best. I really do.

I agree, he definitely says some outrageous things.

However, in his defense, he is one of the few people I've seen on this forum (or other forums ) who's admitted he's wrong and apologized. You don't see that much on the internet.

Plus, his signature makes me laugh.

Yes, but I did promise everyone to limit myself to statements of fact in all future posts, hence making this my problem and my problem alone.

Dear Lovejourney:

I don't make anybody anything.... so if you read through the post that's your choice. Same with his anger, He owns that emotion, not me. I don't make his anger escalate... he does. His choice. And as far as your questions? If you're going to persecute me, give me the facts as to why. You're not my guru and unless you're in my shoes, back off.

Mari

PS: Evidently, you have NOT come across his other posts or threads on the forum, so this is not just this once.
