#1 i am sorry to hear this story.

most somalis run away leaving their country to the Shabaab. The brave, talented ones like this lawyer that return to try to fix the place are the rare, golden apples in a rotten barrel

to lose one is very sad

think of those cowardly thousands that just run away at the first opportunity. this guy returned.

#2 "Cowardly thousands" seems a bit harsh. I would certainly leave Somalia at the first opportunity, and the U.S. was created by people fleeing their own hellholes around the world.

#3 For that reason I don't object to our country taking in peaceful, hard-working Somalis who are willing to forsake the old country and are willing to become Americans.

But the ones who cling to the old ways, particularly the old culture, need to be sent back.

#4 Steve, I've talked with the law enforcement intelligence personnel at fusion centers in Cleveland, Minneapolis and San Diego. They would tell you that the Somalis are a multi-generational, clan-centric horde of thieves with fundamentalist Deobandi Muslim ideals and zero desire to integrate. Of all the people we alow to come here, thses are the last we should consider!

#6 They would tell you that the Somalis are a multi-generational, clan-centric horde of thieves with fundamentalist Deobandi Muslim ideals and zero desire to integrate.

Didn't Ayaan Hirsi Ali come from Somalia originally? She certainly doesn't think highly of her kinfolk!
