A Thursday evening event held at Washburn High School in Minneapolis, located in an upscale neighborhood, was planned as a “Minnesota nice” event, celebrating diversity and the arrival over the last 3 decades of a Somali immigrant community that now comprises almost one-fifth of the city’s population. A video on the school’s website offered free admission and free food. But as the event unfolded in the school’s auditorium, it turned into a nightmare. Alpha News reports:
Mayhem erupted at a south Minneapolis high school Thursday evening during a planned Somali cultural event and performance that resulted in fights, a stabbing, and shots fired.
According to dispatch audio at the time, one person was reportedly stabbed around 7:45 p.m. during a fight involving about 50 people at Washburn High School located at 201 West 49th Street.
As police arrived to respond to the fight, an officer called out over the air that shots had been fired, and a city-wide officer help call was toned by the dispatcher. Several squads responded from across the city as well as state troopers, Hennepin County deputies, and officers from Edina and Richfield police departments.

You ever land in Singapore? Death penalty for drugs.
As you fill out the immigration card, you think back to 16 hours ago when you looked out the window in LA and saw he last guy to touch your luggage.
The one with the tats and the bone through his nose.... and no skin in the game you’re about to play.
“I bet Swedish culture night was never this exciting.”
It is now, but 30 years ago, it was dull - women could go out without being raped on the way home.
Who are we to criticize the celebratory customs of groups that comprise part of the vivid rainbow of diversity that makes this country strong.
Did women start wearing pant suits in the 1970s?
Goodbye, Minnesota.
The last reason I’m leaving Minnesota is because of a lack of hope. I’m a realist, and realism tells me there’s nothing more I can do to help prevent Minnesota’s decline. Not only its declining public safety, but also its declining public schools, its hopelessly irrational light-rail transit system and its eroding future.
I know our current leaders won’t solve these problems because they won’t even acknowledge they exist. Minneapolis recently unveiled a new multimillion-dollar ad campaign to draw visitors into the city to “see what all the fuss is about” because “negative perceptions” have “overshadowed” the positive. Unfortunately for that campaign’s credibility, the “fuss” on the day it was announced was about six people under the age of 18 shot in Brooklyn Center.
Multiculturalism is GREAT!
I’m a proud Somalia vet from 1993.
It truly was a mad-max hell on earth.
You can take the Sammy out of Somalia, but you can;t take the Somalia out of Sammy
LOL! Good one.
Why would the cops even bother to respond?
I thought they were all Toyotas or Isuzus?
Oops!
Thanks for fixing that.
Sure :)
So, that’s what Somali culture is all about...
