"Refugee" shenanigans at Attabury

[BigRed]

Given a nap with no name, what's the odds that any American can correctly point out the two?

I named over a dozen of them.

We beat the ever living **** out of that green one in the middle.

Sounds like I'm already on thin ice so I'll limit my comment to the map which is not accurate.. Still shows Crimea as Ukraine but currently it's Russia.. Didn't pay attention to the location of the thread, my bad View attachment 160943

That is an AWESOME pic!

 

[JettaKnight]

So I can infer that you have, based on your response?
I am sure that some have honorable reasons to come here just as I am sure some don't. I am also fairly sure that those that don't have have been schooled in the correct responses to questions.
No one has the whole answer, only assumptions, theories, and questions.
Those that claim they know, just plain don't.

Like everything in life, the answer is "somewhere in between."

For example, on Wednesday, 34 House Republicans and 14 GOP Senators stayed silent as GOP leader Mitch McConnell approved a massive, expensive, and open-ended inflow of Afghans into Americans’ homes and jobs. The Senators were:

• Roy Blunt (R-MO)
• Richard Burr (R-NC)
• Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV)
• Bill Cassidy (R-LA)
• Susan Collins (R-ME)
• John Cornyn (R-TX)
• Lindsey Graham (R-SC)
• John Kennedy (R-LA)
• Lisa Murkowski (R-AK)
• Mitt Romney (R-UT)
• Mike Rounds (R-SD)
• Richard Shelby (R-AL)
• Thom Tillis (R-NC)
• Todd Young (R-IN)

Okay, but close. Point still stands.

Close? Not even. Almost 1,000 miles apart.

Edit: I didn't "read ahead" when I saw the original comment. It seems I'm not the only one who uses google.

Close as in both eastern European former communist states. And the point still stands.

 

[Alpo]

Except, it's not. Ukrainians are nothing like Slovenians.

Your equivalence is similar to saying Hoosiers are like Newfoundlanders. About the same distance.

Geography matters.

For the point I was making, close enough.

 

[freekforge]

can you verify any of this?

I was down there...

 

[HoosierLife]

I got a guy in my SS class that works at Atterbury.

All he has told me is the kids run into the streets chasing balls and he almost hits them everyday going to work.

They are working on that problem. The kids (47% of those there) are attending a makeshift school taught by American teachers and they are learning about crosswalks and stop signs and what not. All the minor problems I saw were to be expected.

I'm guessin they will be well taken care of.
Government contractor is offering $27/hr w/ lots of overtime (potential $3500/wk) for janitorial and cafeteria workers.

Contractor receives hundreds of applicants for Camp Atterbury jobs

JOHNSON COUNTY, Ind. — Go big or go home. AIM Worldwide Services seems to have taken that approach when it comes to filling 100 positions at Camp Atterbury serving the needs of Afghan evacuee…

Whatever happened to earning your keep?????????????????/ I guess it will be like the somalians never can get enough, always wanting more huh!!!!!!!!!

The Indiana FFA camp shares a boundary with Camp Attabury. I emailed a secretary at the FFA camp and asked how it was there. She was clueless. So I was more specific concerning the population of people at Camp Attabury, she has not responded again. I will not take students there at this time, I will not go there at this time, it would be considered school grounds/school time so I cannot go armed. So I will not go. I do not advise any FFA Advisor to take any students there at this time of uncertainty.

The FFA camp does not touch or share a boundary with Camp Atterbury. I lived in that area for almost 30 years. Indiana FFA center shares a boundary with the Bell Conservation Club and even that is a mile west of the western edge of Camp Atterbury and the Atterbury FWA.

When I was a kid I remember driving past the VAin Danville Illinois and there would be a long line of residents pushing lawnmowers across the lawn. This would have been in the 1950's using "reel" type mowers. They discontinued this many years ago and they were veterans. Jim.

I do not know factually where the boundaries are, was going off of what I was told as a high school student and then as a young ag teacher. If you are correct, please accept my apologies. I guess my intent of the message was, I would not place young kids that near epicenter of unknowns. I don't care if it was 12 miles apart.

Dave's not here man!

 

[Hawkeye]

Don't know if this fits here or not...

NPR this morning (WBOI 89.1) had a news piece on it about settling Afghan refugees in Muncie. Just thought I'd pass it on.

More Afghans arriving in Indiana to await resettlement​

More Afghans arriving in Indiana to await resettlement

Officials said more Afghan refugees are expected at the post in the coming weeks, but it's unclear how many.
