... in response to Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: The ..., posted by bryan on Jul 6, 2003Hey, INS is no friend of mine, I've said it before, and I'll say it again: They are incompetent, uncaring, stupid fools! Here I'm waiting 166 days (so far) for my lady's K-1, so I know exactaly what you mean about adding to the wait time. But given her druthers, Senator Ugly-Face and her gang of NOW Natzis wouldn't permit ANYBODY to bring in a foreign fiancee, no matter how they met, her proposed law to 'protect' them from evil 'abusers' like you and me is just another step down that slipperly slope....My proposal would at least be able to say to the general public (and hopefully gain some support from them) "Hey, the foreign women ARE protected and DO know their rights and know the man's history" (and I'd be all for putting a reasonable time limit on the entire process-hey, BCIS, if you can't find a legetimate reason to say 'no' in 60 days, then the default answer on day 61 is 'yes')
Won't take but one or two more high profile nut cases who kill their foreign spouses before Senator Ugly-Face and company raise a hue and cry (and even worse, get support from the general public) of "No more MOB's PERIOD" and they make some stupid law that you have to marry overseas and live together for at least a year (or 2 or 3) before you can apply for her visa. That would eleminate the possibility of any foreign bride for 99.9% of the men who aren't millionares, which is much closer to their actual objective than 'protecting' people is.
