“We thank the quick reactions of heroic customers that subdued the gunman and ended this hate attack,” the statement said. Details of how the shooting ended have yet to be released by police, but Castro said “this was not an officer-involved shooting.”

    Same, I just want to leave the fucking US. But no, they want me to pay 4,000 dollars to renounce my American citizenship. I'm probably bi and I'm not a nazi, this country should be happy to see me go, why place a barrier?

      You see the GDR was horrible for not letting people out, the US is benevolent in making you pay a fee for leaving its tax obligations.

      If you live abroad American citizenship is one of your best assets. It makes things easy for you, you can enter so many countries without any advance notice. Just show up and boom, 90 days free entry. Even if you want to stay and work, there is so much fraud from other countries that a blue passport is your guarantee that they'll take you seriously when you apply.
