Do u think BCIS will become more slow after Madrid incident.
The news seems to be pointing towards International Terrorism.
BCIS cannot get any slower. Besides, 9/11 did nothing dramatic to I-485 processing. It sucked before and it sucks now.

Don't worry. It will take forever anyway.
It will certainly provide a golden opportunity to this rightwing government to get tough on immigrants, especially asians. They will try to cite this incident to justify their processing delays due to security checks (even though it's not true). There will also be more harassment of arabic looking asians (arabs and south asians). That means we might see more "markendeyulu" like incidents (this guy was arrested in Florida without any reason). This is the time we need some organisation to protect us from discrimination coming as a result of terrorist acts of some remote organisations. So let's stand united in the form of the upcoming organisation (www.immigrationportal.org) which we are planning to open to public by next week-end (it's our goal. We will make the official announcement when we are ready).

WAY TO GO DSATISH. YES WE ARE UNITED AND WE NEED A REPRESENTATION FOR US.
Kudos to all you guys actively involved in this
Right or left you cannot escape the anti-immigrant feeling they have now. They have all the right to be paranoid because agree or not every Arabic looking person in their view (the extremist) is a terrorist. And we are going in the right direction by forming a group to protect oursleves against any unjustified treatment.
