The principal blames the white students for papers that are ""inflammatory and very disrespectful".

Another account: Tensions mount at OHS.

Good commentary on this: Somali Muslims “out for blood” at Minnesota high school.

America should stop importing trouble!

Remind me as to why we keep importing people from Somalia again.

I'll take it that none of the Somalis involved will be charged with any hate crimes, but the whiteys, who didn't even throw a punch, will be crucified as always.

Can’t wait to see what Sen. Al The Clown Franken has to say about this. Mn’s high Somali population could easily turn into a problem if there are sleeper terrorists. Ya betcha!

These Somali muslim POS should be deported back to Africa before they start asking for reparations.

Immigration in Minnesota

"..Most Somalis who now live in Minnesota came to the United States as refugees. About one-third of Minnesota’s Somali residents came directly from refugee camps; others settled first in another state and then relocated to Minnesota...."

Rarely does a good deed go unpunished!

I see that the White students were suspended for putting marks of ink on paper, while the non-Whites were forgiven for their physical assault on the Whites.

Some important information from the other article...

The senior who ended up in the hospital on Monday was given an assignment to write a paper for the class and post it on the class’ blog for other students to read and comment on. He posted the paper on Friday, Nov. 6.

He chose as his topic what he called “Somalian privileges” and wrote in his paper that the Somali students in the high school were allowed to “bend the rules.” As one example, he said that though most students weren’t allowed to wear hats in school, the Somali students routinely wore hats without being told to take them off.

Within a half hour, after the class had been dismissed, he was surrounded by a “pretty big group” of Somali students who had been given copies of the paper from other students in the class, the boy said. The Somalis were, the boy said, “pushing, yelling and asking questions” — specifically asking him if he had written the paper.

Why won’t the ‘reporters’ release the actual text of the paper that was written, or the texts that were sent - so the readers can judge for themselves how “inflammatory” they were?

FWIW, Owatonna is a typical small town in the Midwest. It is inhabited (for the most part) by good people with solid values and a solid work ethic.

Since the paper was posted on a school blog site, has anyone tried to obtain the paper off the intarwebs? Probably has been removed, but the Internet remembers everything, so someone who has access to the school’ site (or knows it’s URL) might be able to find it.

This is the first I have heard of this, but after seeing some shows on cable about gangs, this is my guess:

The administration doesn't question gang members wearing hats out of fear for their own safety.

You can thank the lily-white, left-wing, do-gooders of the Lutheran Church for this one.

The best defense against Islam in the U.S. are two things:

1) Immediately stop all immigration and travel to the U.S. by Muslims. Ask all those with visas to leave and track and deport those who don’t.

2) The best defense against Islam is a population of people who are strong in their Christian faith. We need to build up generations of youth that are strong in their Christian faith. That is NOT going to happen in atheistic Marxist dominated government K-12 schools!

We as conservatives and Christians MUST, MUST, MUST open Christian private schools and shut down every government K-12 school in this nation.

You know, I don’t remember any problems like this with the Vietnamese and Cambodian refugees when they came to the DC area 25 or so years ago. I don’t know how Somalis ended up in Minnesota and Maine but thank God they didn’t all end up here. We, and apparently not the cops, have MS-13 to deal with.

But I guess none of it matters anyway since it’s all whitey’s fault.

This is how it creeps folks. In big cities and small towns. You cannot say anything about Muslims – they are indeed privileged. If you do say something, be prepared to fight for your life and livelihood, possibly die, certainly have your life disrupted, end up in court, and be labeled things you likely are not.

A student follows the lesson plan. Writes a paper and posts it on a class blog as directed. And for doing what he was supposed to – in a land that prides itself on freedom of speech and expression – in a learning institution no less – that student is beat down and suspended.

Were any charges brought against the Somali’s who distributed the paper and not only incited violence but perpetrated it? Was the content really offensive or did the Somali’s just not like what was written?

And since when did not liking what is written in a school project become a green light to attack the author? Wait. Does this sound familiar? Muslims violently attacking non-Muslims who write something the Muslims don’t agree with?

Many years ago, with just a hint of racial tension between black and “cowboy” students, a wiser principal made a very good decision.

He brought in a “security” officer. He was a frightening looking man, about 6’6” tall, muscular, and importantly, a war veteran. He was not handsome, and sported several gold teeth and plastic ears from a war wound.

He was also black. Briefly this gave the black students the idea that he might be on “their side”. They were mistaken. However, peace and order were restored.

Wow - “Tensions mount at OHS” is, to me, the most interesting.

I love the comments at the end of the article. One person states the Somali’s have a problem with grabbing girls in the hallway which has been brought to the attention of the administration, nothing has been done about that. Another comment, one Somali came after someone’s sister with a ball bat - at least he was arrested and got sent back to Somalia.

The guy who wrote the opinion paper was suspended for writing the paper but the kids that beat him up were not!!

There are some serious issues at this school.

Just a small request...and please take this in the spirit it is intended....

I have no idea where Owatonna is located (and neither do most other Freepers), and it is very likely that there is more than one Star Tribune in the US.

This is not directed at you specifically, but more of a general request overall; when you post something like this, please tell us where the story originates. Without that context right up front it is difficult to know if it applies to me or not.

Thanks!
