Most Somalis in the Twin Cities are not "illegal" but are legal refugees placed there by the State department.
There’s plenty of them that are illegal including Omar Jamal their spokesman who’s always on the news when they do something wrong (like the recent taxi driver accused rapist) proclaiming their innocence. They just don’t send them back because they do not have a functioning government but they are indeed in the country illegally.

The federal government has charged Minnesota Somali activist Omar Jamal with violating immigration rules. The Homeland Security Agency has detained him in the Washington County jail. Jamal also faces criminal charges for the same allegations — that he lied to the government to get into the country.

Actually up to 80% of Somali refugees are fakes in that the family they are re-uniting with here are not genuine biological family. DNA tests show this. They bring in phony children and phony relatives who are not family
They should be stripped of any citizenship and be deported .....and deported back if not citizens
