Ya gotta think outside the box, if ya wanta solve this problem here.
What did the Somali Tribespesrsons do back in the old country? Well, their major occupation seems to have involved cattle, goats, camels, and sheep rustled from one tribe to another; they conducted the odd raid into Kenya; Kidnapped folks; and generally behaved like a semi-naked version of the Wild Bunch. Their women were known to do a bit of farming and trading and scout out opportunities for the boys to go back to plan "a" above, when they weren't too busy to handle the odd clitorectomy.
So to get our new fellow citizens back to work, we have to recreate in Maine the opportunities they are accustomed to working with in Somalia. I see no reason why the dolorful and quaint Somali Tribespersons in L/A can't raid Bar Harbor, Boothbay, and Ogunquit from time to time. Many of folk who are the normal summer habitués of these swank resorts seem to be just the sort of New York and Boston Democrats who are culturally sensitive enough to appreciate a good multicultural kidnapping. Their offspring might also enjoy getting tribal tattoos and geometric scars.
For example, The Dairymen are always complaining about hard it is to make a buck, so the Somalis would actually be doing them a favor by rearranging the Holsteins for them. I also recommend expanding the funky old 30's attraction, "Desert of Maine" to 1000 sq. miles, so the Somalis don't get too homesick.
Of course, in order to do their part to make our state more interesting to tourists, I would suggest they wear their native garb, summer AND winter.
I also notice that this Somali activist is a resident of St. Paul, MN. Minnesota is nice big place, perhaps he'd like to take a few Somalis off our welfare roll, and put them on Minnesota's.
hmmm pretty good catch! Do you think? eh, no....... :(
