The Somali immigrants are here because of the Somali Civil war in the 90s.

I read that they are not integrating well. Some from Minnesota went back home to join the terror group al-Shabab.

Generally speaking from my experience they are not very friendly and stick to themselves. A police friend of mine says they have gang problems but not like crips/bloods more like family clan warfare.

The Somalis are refugees placed in certain communities by international refugee relocation organizations.

Interesting. Thanks I was always curious. No idea why they chose Minneapolis & Columbus.

Me either.

From what I understand, certain countries have agreed to absorb refugees from around the world, they have some agreement and caps and a whole system for it. Certain communities have infrastructure in place for them, like refugee schools, therapy, etc.

It may be that people then start to petition for their families too, I don't know.

Just ignore those other people. You can talk about Somalia if you want.

Khartoum to Mog is less than 2,000 miles. They're practically the same village!

I've made a list of things that I avoid as they are known to be harmful to a persons health:

1. Tobacco

2. Swimming with sharks

3. Unprotected sex with multiple partners

4. Intravenous drug use

3. Organized religion

This is why when someone asks me if I'm religious I say NO! Emphatically...NO. Do I believe in God? Oh most definitely. I'm very faithful, and I will occasionally attend church for special events. But I avoid organized religion for the most part because ALL of them do nothing but divide us all.
