In Toronto the Somalis are kept in line by the Jamaicans.The Jamaicans are much more violent and hate the Somalis.
So there is your answer to your Somali problem-Take in more Jamaicans.

There is already too many people in this country and growing. Dear god why would you bring more in? 330 million people. Where does the next 10, 20,50 million live? I don’t want a new neighbor of any kind. I don’t want more traffic. I don’t want another Wal Mart parking lot. Our very own young folks breed like rabbits, for gosh sakes knock off immigration of any type. The frontier closed over 100 years ago.

The Somalis illegally, genitally mutilate most of their little girls born in America.

How can we legally send them back? Or morally, since we invited them to the US?

How are the Somalis you've met "horrible people"? What did they do or say that was horrible?

Jim


I don't know about you Jim, but I'm tired of those refugees from the lower 48 moving here and ruining the country. I was a better refugee 40 years ago though. I assimilated.

"MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – More men and boys from a Somali American community in Minneapolis have joined – or attempted to join – a foreign terrorist organization over the last 12 years than any other jurisdiction in the country.

FBI stats show 45 Somalis left to join the ranks of either the Somalia-based Islamic insurgency al-Shabab, or the Iraq- and Syria-based ISIS combined. And as of 2018, a dozen more had been arrested with the intention of leaving to support ISIS."

A friend of mine has been a citizen of the US for about 20 years. He is from Manchester, England originally. He goes back once or twice a year to visit relatives. He said the United Kingdom is in worse condition than the US when it comes to radical Muslims. Some areas are exclusively Islamic regions ruled with Sharia Law. He said unless America acts soon, it will be too late.

Brigitte Gabriel was a Muslim living in Lebanon. She converted to Christianity. She had to flee Lebanon or be killed for leaving the Islamic religion. She said many Christians were killed or driven out of the country. There are basically no Christians left in Lebanon. She gives talks around the country warning us because it's coming to America.

I don't know of any time a Christian killed a former Christian for becoming a Muslim. Cassius Clay aka Muhammed Ali didn't have to go into hiding or run for his life, did he?

On a FOX NEWS poll on the street polling Muslim men living in the US, they were posed the question: "Which would you prefer, the US Constitution or Sharia Law?" Just over 80% said, "Sharia Law".

Oh, I know it was FOX NEWS some will say. But, if the other stations did the same poll and it came out the same, they would refuse to report it. Have you ever heard the others do a similar poll?

This goes beyond Muslim, refugee or whatever. There’s too many frickin people. If you don’t want a new neighbor, if your not saying to yourself “ gee we need more people” you don’t want any immigration. No one talks about this. What’s the number? How many people can we hold? When the government sells Yosemite National Park to Mark Zuckerberg maybe someone will scratch their head and think, we should of done something 30 years ago.

Population in the U.S has doubled since 1960 and it is almost 100% due to immigration. Personally I would of been more than happy to have half the people we have currently.

Our current economic policies require an increase in population.

Yup, and when we have a crash then what is going to happen? At least when Rome fell it was still full of Romans.

To comply with the executive order,county boards will have to hold a vote or they can table it and not have a vote.
Setting the vote aside would be considered a no vote,and refugees would not be settled in that county.

There are several rural counties that have already voted to continue to accept refugees,Kandiyohi being the first I believe,along with Blue Earth,Mower Nobles and others
that already have significant refugee population. Areas where they can be absorbed into meat processing arena. I doubt if many of the residents of those counties even were aware
of a vote.

Beltrami citizens were concerned and rightfully so for the same reasons given above.

Donnersurvivor is correct that in enough time,they will migrate to St Cloud and the cities where they can amass more political clout - witness the lovely and talented Ilhan Omar.

Thanks for answering my question, Keith. I didn't know Columbus has a large Somali population. What part of town? When I lived there, the north part was for upper middle class whites, the west side (where I was raised) had mostly farmers, the south hillbillies, and blacks mostly on the east side of town.

Given your experiences, I can't blame you for your negative view of Somalis. Haven't you run into any good ones?

Counting children, I have probably met 50 some Somalis. There was nothing likable about any of them.

Columbus has around 45,000 Somalis

This article covers where they live in Columbus.

https://beltmag.com/in-columbus-somalis-live-under-suspicion/

I am very pro immigration for good quality immigrants. I don't think any immigrants should be allowed in from any country where the people commonly practice female genital mutilation, treat women terribly in general, support terrorism and want Sharia law as the law of the land.

About 60% of the people I sell to our foreign born. Most, besides the Somalis have been okay. All of the non Somali Africans I have met, except some Ethiopians, have been okay. I have always had good experiences with immigrants from Ghana. They have been friendly, honest and generous. I have talked to some of the Ghanans for over an hour when they come out and some even hug me when they come. Ghanans are incredibly different from Somalis in my experience. Ghanans have a much better culture.

Anchorage has a small population of Somali immigrants, but they live quietly and cause no trouble.

A few years back I volunteered to help teach them English, but health concerns put an end to that.

I am sure not all Somalis are bad people, but I am also sure that Somalis have a higher percentage of bad people than almost any other nationality.

In small numbers any other nationality allowed to immigrate here would become Americanized. By allowing foreign immigrants to live in areas made up of entirely their people, we are dividing America and weakening it.

From your previous posts, I got the impression that you also were not in favor of letting in lower class Muslims. Is that still true?

America gets the best immigrants when the immigrants have to work hard to get here.

I did not mean to single out Muslims with my prior comments. I'm not in favor of letting in poor, uneducated people who are only going to become a public charge. Instead, we should admit the educated, those who had a business, or those who have adequate resources to support themselves.

It's hard to set aside cultural prejudice, but there's no doubt different cultures have different values. Asians, for example, tend to favor hard work, value education, and don't expect handouts.

I think we should let in people who will contribute to our society and become self-supporting. How we select those people is the tough question.
