Those are the Chaldeans, you can't find a gas station or party store that isn't owned by them.......
And for what it's worth, they're the only race that will actually own the stations, party stores and super markets within the Detroit city limits.......
I have mixed feelings about them. Most of the Chaldean owned places I've stopped in, they're not that friendly. However, the gas station I've been buying my gas from for the past 10 years are Chaldean owned and they're a great family and very friendly. In talking with one of the sons last Saturday even he admitted that other stations he has had to visit aren't friendly at all.
With that being said, my area and the Sterling Heights area are filled with them. Other than their drab personalities, I can't say anything bad about them because they work their tails off and they take care of their familes......
Over here toward Jackson we have a lot of Iranian Christian store owners. They come across as angry when they really aren’t but they do take a lot of crap for “looking Muslim”
I read something the other day “warning” that Arab Christians would be the primary middle eastern population in the Detroit area within the next decade or so.
They are a beat down populace - oldest in the world in a different land - they step lightly and mind there q’s. Can ya blame ‘em.
Only thing I would point out is the majority of Arab Christians descend from branches on both sides of Catholicism [Western & Eastern] that allow for a replacement (suppersesionist -as Islam is and all BS/lies) theological interpretation in which Abraham’s covenant is denied. Culturally one can then remain on the Islamic/NWO/Bahai/collectivist-dem...lie that is not of the God of Abraham-Isaac & Jacob. No wavering on this one -Mount Seir - Moab; Mountains of Israel - Jacob. [Ezek. 35 & 36]
God does not leave His people in the dark on this - until they come to grips and repentance and get their hearts right on this they are straddling deception and suffering the consequences and are wrong - and this goes for all Christians and His children He is so long suffering with.
