That “all-out brawl” at South High in Minneapolis got coverage from virtually every local outlet. At WCCO-TV, Esme Murphy reports: “Twelve people complained that they had been sprayed with mace. Police at the scene said they had to use chemical agent to get the crowd under control as they were being pelted with objects as they tried to break things up. … [One student] said the fights were over pride. ‘I know it’s a pride thing between Muslims and black people,’ she said. ‘They want their pride back for something. I don’t know.’ She also said ‘boys were hitting girls’ and that some people were lying on the floor, with their hands over their heads, in surrender.… The fight, students say, was the result of long-simmering tensions between the 8 percent of students who are Somali Americans and the 20 percent who are African Americans.”
The Strib story, by Paul Walsh and Kelly Smith, says, “Guled Omar, a senior, said he was sitting in the cafeteria when the outburst began after a boy hit a girl. ‘I don't feel safe here,’ Omar said. ‘This is something that has been going on’ for at least two years, he said. ‘I don't know if it's because we're minorities of the newest immigrant group,’ Omar added, saying he has complained to the principal and the School District.”
KSTP-TV’s story, reported by Joe Mazan, says: “Classes will be in session Friday, the district said Thursday evening. The school will implement a safety plan ‘to ensure that there is support for a safe learning environment.’ Additional counselors and support staff will be on hand. The school will operate under a ‘code yellow’ Friday. Students will remain in their classrooms during class periods and access in and out of the building will be limited. The school will be on its normal schedule.”
“I’ll bet part of the animosity/hatred has to do with Somalis getting to jump the line for public subsidized housing over the native born blacks. Due to Somalis refugee status. I saw an instance where Haitians were getting in ahead of native blacks”
And STILL, black leaders like Sharpton/jackson have their masses convinced that unfettered immigration is GOOD for them!
How will Obamal exploit this crisis ???
but to another point....of all the Asians that would love to come to the USA, and the IRish, and the Russians, and the Indians, why do we get these violent muslim Somalis....???...
I know...I'm a total racist for suggesting it....
is there any culture of men actually working in Africa?....it seems the women do the majority of work and the men sit around making up lies....
young women give it away free anyway, often......
the Playboy philosophy wins again....
Reminds me of the Hispanic vs Mexican school brawls that were going on in New Mexico when I lived there about 5-6 years ago... Most people outside the state could not get their minds around the concept..
I know. I was yanking your chain. 8-)
In some countries men farm and herd cattle, or hunt and fish. And in the more developed economies, such as Kenya and Nigeria, there’s considerable commerce and industry. English-speaking places where Christianity is somewhat established ... men also have government jobs, teaching and administration. Economies that don’t produce much of anything else seem to proliferate government jobs.
Somalia, though ... pure wreckage from the get-go.
