Madonna ‘Donna’ Kashanian, 64, was taken by plainclothes officers from her home in New Orleans
A 64-year-old Iranian woman, who has lived in the US for 47 years, was detained by immigration agents on Sunday morning while gardening outside her home in New Orleans.
According to a witness, plainclothes officers in unmarked vehicles handcuffed Madonna “Donna” Kashanian and transported her to a Mississippi jail before transferring her to the South Louisiana Ice processing center in Basile, reports Nola.
Kashanian arrived in the US in 1978 on a student visa and later applied for asylum, citing fears of persecution due to her father’s ties to the US-backed Shah of Iran. Her asylum request was ultimately denied, but she was granted a stay of removal on the condition she comply with immigration requirements, a condition her family says she always met.
Any metric used as a KPI stops being useful as a metric, have you heard that?
The very moment academics and such are going to decide on real power, you’ll have the right academics emerge, of “scientific communism professors” kind.
If they outline their methodology and outcomes, if science indicates an economic system will maximize wellbeing for the most individuals in a society, it should be our system based on the information available. And it should change if new data supercedes the old.
Capitalism has proven to be incompatible with democracy over time and detrimental to any social contract. It’s a “die alone” economic system on a planet we need to care for and live together on. We ain’t getting to mars, we’re killing the planet the human habitability of the world we came from and this was super easy baby just don’t shit where you sleep mode and we keep proving we can’t even do that.
I’ll never understand people that denegrate the scientific community. They and their predecessors are the reason you aren’t going to be dead by 30, why we’re even able to bitch on the internet right now. The scientific method and community have done more for humanity in 500 years than every theologen and diety mankind has ever been inspired to pull out of their ass.
Capitalism will end in the next 50 years, either by murder of it or the mass ecological suicide it causes. It’s pathetic how many people that are willing to end the species so they can pretend they’ll be rich the rich assholes living on the poors backs one day.
