unfair discrimination in Baltimore

[seekingsUsan 1]

That's real mature... attacking someone for doing one thing, and then doing the exact same thing to prove some sort of point???

While it's most unfortunate that my pinkie slipped yesterday so that my "?" came out as "/" it's more unfortunate that you couldn't/wouldn't see the intended irony in my reply. I realize also that you don't online-know me and therefore know that I am -not- doing the same thing.

Posts like these that spew a baseless attack bug me. So what?

and your unfair judgement on every other singapore person bug me too .Don`t judge an entire nation based on one thing /

I realize that you missed my point because I was using sarcasm, or as Cherry puts it 'sarkiness' (my family says 'snarky').

To be very clear: I do not judge every Singapore person on what you said. I added that as an example of how unfair it was of you to say that "Americans" are one way because of your perception of your encounter with one man.

Just as I would not judge a nation on the comments of one person, I would like for my nation to not be judged by the behavior (or your perception of the behavior) of one person.

For the record now and forever, I still like Singapore people and I look forward to visiting your very tidy land one day to scuba dive in your beautiful seas. Or nearby.

i was in baltimore for my info pass appointment and i was shocked just how americans treat people from outside the country ,like they were animals ,right down to the black guy at the front desk ,who asked to look at i.d`s ,the moment he knew i wasn`t carrying an american i.d ,he tried to assert his authority ,making me hold up my passport ,and open it for him ,even though he hardly glanced at it ,being that he was sitting so far away from the desk ,looking all comfortable and aloof.

He only lean alittle to see my husband`s i.d ,but for real you could have flashed a fake i.d and he wouldn`t know,cause he wasn`t really doing his job ,just acting the part.

The INS officer was the same too.

My husband wrote down the address and she was like yeah thats right thats good ,american address ,but on my I-130 i put down my country`s add and she got on my case.

i thought i was suppose to list my home address ,i didn`t know it was for my current residence .

Try the Charlotte office. They are the most helpful people I have met. When I had my Green Card interview they were so helpful, the woman treated us like family. I am on my conditional green card until next year and have already prepared myself for the next round of process and application to become a US citizen.

I don't sense racism here, just a guy at the front desk who probably doesn't like his job and an INS officer who is having a bad day. Don't take it personal. Maybe you can change how you interpret this whole situation, then perhaps you'd realize that it wasn't about you.
