Marco Rubio: Riding to the Immigration Rescue
WSJ ^ | Saturday Jaunary 12, 2013

Posted on 01/12/2013 10:21:38 AM PST by Bigtigermike

Marco Rubio, Florida's GOP senator, unveils his reform ideas to 'modernize' the system and put illegal immigrants on a path to citizenship.

Marco Rubio—41-year-old son of working-class Cuban exiles—has lived the upwardly mobile immigrant experience. In his fast rise, the Florida Republican has also experienced the politics of immigration

"Here's how I envision it," he says. "They would have to come forward. They would have to undergo a background check." Anyone who committed a serious crime would be deported. "They would be fingerprinted," he continues. "They would have to pay a fine, pay back taxes, maybe even do community service. They would have to prove they've been here for an extended period of time. They understand some English and are assimilated. Then most of them would get legal status and be allowed to stay in this country."

Thank you for the ping ToL :)
His/her name is (or was, in this case) a bit misleading ;)

Hi! Nice to see you!

You’re not the only one.

So, it’s established that if you’re as annoying as you can be to as many FReepers as you can, you will get the ZOT.

Cool.

On steroids.

I no longer report suspected trolls, but that one was grating on my last nerve.

Yes, I have thought that as well. It could mean that “he” is a barracuda (misspelled) for Sarah (also misspelled), or “her” name is Sara, and she is a barracuda for something or other...

In any case, 1/13/13 was just not his/her lucky day.

Nope, Windflier has that honor now, fearlessly guarding against the evil forces of PDS and other trolldom everywhere! I am but a humble wandering druid.

Well, maybe not so humble, but I do wander...off on tangents...over steep inclines... ;)

What in the wide, wide world of sports is wrong with GIMP? There's a gazillion scripts out there to do anything you want to do.

Hi Sweetie!

It wasn’t so much a single post, but rather the entirety of her posting history, and numerous complaints, that did her in.

Not many people like concern trolls who insult anyone who does not agree with them. Many of her posts start out with “You...” followed by some demeaning, name-calling, or derogatory remark.

Lots of people really got fed up.

You sure? There are (were) two posters with a similar handle ...Sarah Barracuda and this idiot,’Sarabaracuda’, who now haunts the Great porcelain Recpticle in fell Trollhenge.

I know several have been confused by that. Myself included.

Lotz of trolls pick similar names to known and respected posters to gain some credibility. I mean... who checks the sign up date of Norm Lenhard?

Everyone knows Norm.

I don't ever recall noticing her until recently. Her nick was similar to a few other Freepers, but I knew she wasn't any of them.

I wonder if names can be ‘recycled’ after someone gets banned.

Like as in if someone were to try ‘Pissant” if the system would take it or if the handles get nuked along with the poster...? I dunno.

Thanks for the ping, TOL.

I honestly thought when Norm called s/he out yesterday afternoon the zot was coming then, turned out it was a delayed zot.
