Some of the 49 migrants flown to Martha’s Vineyard by the state of Florida are now able to legally work in the United States and have temporary protections from deportation — because they are considered victims of a potential crime, their attorney says.
The migrants are eligible for these protections because they applied for a special kind of visa meant for crime victims who are helping law enforcement, after they said they were tricked into taking charter flights from San Antonio to Massachusetts with false promises of jobs and other aid, said Rachel Self, an attorney for the migrants.
With respect to Mr. X, that’s still a six-inch reduction to the amount of “knife in back”. That’s better than you were before. We just need to not let it get pushed back in and allow things to heal.
I’m so sick of people shitting all over incremental progress, constantly demanding perfection, and wondering why nothing ever gets done.
Perfect cannot be the enemy of good.
Nobody is shitting on incremental progress.
Rather, they are rightfully asking “when do we get the rest? Why is it only this increment, when it could be more?”
You do not get a pat on the back and a congratulations for doing less than what is expected. You get a “that’s nice, now finish the job”
EDIT: if your 12yo beats the shit out of another kid every day at school, but today they only shoved a kid into a wall instead of kicking their ass, you don’t take them out for ice cream for “incremental improvement”.
