A fight broke out: A very tense night at a caucus site in Minneapolis where DFLer Mohamud Noor is challenging longtime DFL state Rep. Phyllis Kahn. The heat in one Minneapolis location resulted in police being called out. With 300 people at the Byan [sic] Coyle Center, a fight broke out and people rushed the stage.

It appears the two people running to chair the meeting were Mohamed Jama and Zamzam Ali.

I'll see your “Mohamud Noor” and raise you "Zamzam Ali".

This is the moslem invasion.

Someone was probably caught trying to put God into the Democrat platform.

So many Somalis in Minnesota, I’m surprised there aren’t pirate ships on Lake Superior.

There’s more Somalis in Minneapolis than in bleeping Mogadishu.

The Red Star-Tribune headline: “Small, passionate crowds turn out for caucus night in Minnesota”

“A rainbow of headscarves peppered the mostly Somali-American crowd of several hundred, many of whom had shown up to support activist Mohamud Noor. A Minneapolis school board member, Noor wants to replace Kahn, who is seeking a 22nd term. But noisy outbursts over who was to lead the meeting quickly turned to chaos. A fight broke out, people rushed the podium and within 45 minutes of the meeting’s start, police shut the ­caucus down, ordering the crowds out. Abdirashid Omar said he was there to show his support for Noor, “the only person talking … my language.”

Afterward, DFL executive director Corey Day appeared baffled by the rare turn of events. “I have no clue exactly why this transpired,” he said. “I’m just as shocked as you guys.”

I’m shocked. too! Unexpected! Surprising!
