If you sign it, then it's like a single bee buzzing. If thousands of bees buzz, then that becomes a noise. When the noise persists they will have to do something about it. Because bee ( you) provides honey (vote) tomorrow.

The only problem is Uncle Sam only wants honey from bees, but does not give a damn to these bees.

Just kidding.............

Q: I would have expected you to have responded better than that. Besides being impractical, this petition makes absolutely 0 sense and this is from a person that has lived in the US longer than what is mentioned in the petition.

Here we go again.. sigh !!!
RMS bhai, if you don't agree with the petition, do not sign it. It's as simple as that.:)

[RMS_V13]

Hi Monica,
I am not going to sign this and I neither have a GC nor anywhere close to that. I think I have a right to speak my mind, just like you do. Sigh if you wish. That's fine.

[qesehmk]

If anybody thinks this is not going to work, that's fine. We all have our opinions. As long as we respect others' right to have a viewpoint and as long as their actions don't hurt us, why criticize just for the sake of criticism?

Anybody is welcome to come up with another option and try to move people in that direction.

Personally speaking ... I have decided long back that my focus is to bring clarity to GC process. And that's where I restrict myself. But that doesn't prohibit me from supporting somebody who wants to take some small step.

areee... RMS bhai, don't get mad :) what I meant was petitions are always optional for one to sign. I might agree with one and not agree with other and might not even sign for any. We always have the the right to say and do as we please.
PEACE bhai..PEACE :)

[Monica12]

Monica, Stop calling me Bhai. I am a she :)

LOL! sorry RMS behen.. welcome to the behen club :)

[RMS_V13]

@RMS_V13 I see your point of no benefit thru the petition but allow me to flip the question on you.
Do you think this (or any similar) petition can cause any harm to our cause of reducing the GC backlogs and wait times?

CoolMJ, For once think about what this country needs. Not what you need. I am sure you will see my point. The equivalent of this petition in India is land grabbing. A tenant stays in your house for 13 years and voila---he files a petition in court that the house is his.
Please step out from your shoes and look at the bigger picture. Be fair. I have been in the US longer than most of you. The immigration system needs a fix. But be rational, be fair just like how you expect USCIS etc to be.

RMS, With all due respect what CoolMJ is trying to do is not unfair. I see your point about thinking what the country needs. But that starts with a stability at home.

Also it is not the same as land grabbing. We are only asking. We are not claiming to be citizens and are not taking the USCIS To court here.

But I do believe the petition lacks merit. But it never hurts to ask and I believe that is what CoolMJ is doing - just ask.

At least sign this petiton, immaterial if it gives result or not.. Please do it for yourself to help yourself at least 5 % :-)

I don't buy the fact that an immi forum can change rules please...shows your maturity level

RMS: Please be considerate when you reply. This forum is a place where people vent their frustrations. If you don't like what the person says, please disagree respectfully or just ignore him/her. We do not have any right to make statements like you have made(see quote).

One thing that makes this forum different from a gazillion others is people show compassion to other forum members. Let us keep it that way.

[RMS_V13]

RMS, I think you have made your point clear about online petitions' futility in bringing any change in immigration system.

However, this forum has certain decorum that people generally maintain. I will appreciate if you could maintain it. I hate to put any restrictions on anyone. And we have done it only on one user in the last 1 year of our existence. So I request you to calm down and engage in meaningful dialogue. Disagreements are ok. Attacks are not ok.

I cuncur but this one person gets on to me. Kindly unsubscribe my access rights. Thanks!

UFO hunters are now turning to an Obama administration initiative in the hopes of revealing what the government really knows about extraterrestrials. For years now UFO believers have insisted that the US government is masking information about alien visitations (UFO believers petition the White House for information (http://www.newsytype.com/12298-ufo-petition-to-white-house/)). From what I heard recently, the petition has attained its goal and then some, with a grand total of 7,221 signatures as of Oct 4.

shaumack,

What piqued my interest in that statement is the word "potentially".I really don't know what that means. I believe INA doesn't have that word. They simply say "Otherwise unused".

A big thanks to Pedro, Spectator, JackBrown for the claity about the Visa recapture. Ombudman says 218,000, almost must be True.

Thank you, Sir!

Actually I have been very happy about this upgrade today!

I am always happy to see upgrades of my account level!

When can I become a guru? I don't know much, so I think I may become a "fake" guru in one day, haha.

I also look forward to seeing the next VB, although my PD is 2.5 months later than you.

I think you will definitely become current in the next VB. Good luck to you and me! :)

My PD is Jan 6, 2008 and hoping us and others on the forum get green soon :). BTW, did you guys notice the petition that was posted on the White House official website? Here's the link to it :https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petitions#!/petition/foreign-graduates-advanced-usdegrees-ms-phd-should-get-green-cards-they-promote-innovation-job/rpdxm0v8
