Crew of the Dali (ship that hit Baltimore bridge) still trapped on board the ship

I had no idea. The government is saying "due to lack of visas" and because of ongoing investigations the 21 dudes that were on the ship haven't been allowed to leave. Just leaving them on a derelict ship in the middle of the river for weeks.
Yet 200k per month traipse through the southern border and they don't give a single shite. Nothing suspicious going on here.

They probably just have a bad case of the Cajun boil

They weren’t able to pay the required fee privately to the proper people I guess

Easy money for them as long as there’s power on the ship.

Living on board is probably better than the living conditions of some of the countries that they are from.

As long as they're still getting paid, they're probably happy.

Those guys are used to being stuck on a ship.
They probably work for low wages and if they vanish, it would be a nightmare to replace them.

Probably better on the ship than in detainment hold for several months.
Can play cards, watch stuff on TV, talk on the phone, order pizza..........oh wait.

Eh. As long as that ship isn’t docked it has to have a crew. Most of those foreign crews never get off the boat in port anyway (which is probably why they have a visa problem)

I’m not sure why you don’t understand why people who did not fill out paperwork to be in this country and then subsequently have their very large ship crash into a major bridge causing people to die arent allowed to just go free into our country.
What’s confusing here?

Their shore passes expire 30 days after the ship first berths at a US port. I once worked a ship in the Port of Houston that was deemed unseaworthy, and those guys were stuck on a tiny ship for over 3 months.

I suspect that living conditions on that ship aren't terribly bad.
I agree it still sucks to be stuck there though.

What I still want to know is why did potato head Joe say the US government was paying for the damages rather than the company that owns the ship?

I heard that they were necessary on the ship to maintain and carry out duties while the demo took place.

I thought Baltimore was a sanctuary city?
Ironically, they would've had no problem had the ship crashed in the Rio Grande. They'd have free housing, welfare, healthcare & voters rights by now.

You also forgot the part where they took their phones away and replaced their phones with flip phones. Yea, they don’t want that crew member saying a word to anyone outside of that ship on what exactly happened
Posted on 5/16/24 at 9:50 am to Thundercles
Money for nothing and…….well, maybe no chicks for free…..

People of Baltimore still driving much longer distances and losing hours of their days every working day because the crew didn't maintain their ship's integrity and it took out an important bridge.
What is the difference between 21 days at sea in the middle of the Pacific and 21 days in Baltimore harbor? Fresher food? Still being paid? (or not).
Less work to do?

I’m sure they are all just passing the time on whatever India’s version of Tigerdroppings is. All of them bragging about being Mumbai ballers and rickshaw nuts.

Can't they just swim to shore and claim asylum?
