Indictment: Somali Gangs Trafficked Girls for Sex, Some From Minnesota
By: Associated Press,

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Twenty-nine people have been indicted in a sex trafficking ring in which Somali gangs in Minneapolis and St. Paul allegedly forced girls under age 14 into prostitution in Minnesota, Tennessee and Ohio, according to an indictment unsealed Monday.

The 24-count indictment, unsealed in U.S. District Court in the Middle District of Tennessee, said one of the gangs' goals was recruiting females under age 18, including some under age 14, and forcing them into prostitution so the defendants could get money, marijuana or liquor.

The indictment details several instances in which young Somali or African American girls were taken from place to place and forced to engage in sex acts with multiple people. One girl was under 13 when she was first prostituted. Another girl was 18 when she was raped by multiple men in a hotel room, the indictment said.

John Morton, director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, said the case is significant because the girls were repeatedly victimized over several years and transported to many places. The indictment lists incidents involving four victims, but says "other minor children" were involved. It's not clear how many victims there were in all.

"Human traffickers abuse innocent people, undermine our public safety, and often use their illicit proceeds to fund sophisticated criminal organizations," Morton said. "ICE is committed to bringing these criminals to justice and rescuing their victims from a life in the shadows."

Van Vincent, the Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Middle District of Tennessee, wouldn't comment on the status of the girls, other than to say they were safe.

If this happened to my daughter, my statement would be “If you are identified as a member of a Somali gang by colors, hand gestures, graffiti, or hanging out on the wrong corner, you will be killed.”

We're rocketing toward that necessity as a preventative measure, and not just the Somali gangs. The gang culture is exploding because we have law enforcement which refuse to do their jobs, and politicians who refuse to let them.

I have mentioned that to my family more than once, that someday it will be hazardous to wear the wrong color clothing in public. My kids used to think that I was joking when I tell them that some day people that do gang graffiti will be shot on site. And it isn’t for the graffiti - it is for them being in a gang.

It IS amazing how the cops KNOW that these thugs are in violent gangs and don’t do more to aggresively fight them.

Meanwhile, A temporary restraining order has been issued to block a state constitutional amendment that prohibits state courts from considering international or Islamic law when deciding cases. U.S. District Judge Vicki Miles-LaGrange handed down the ruling this morning in Oklahoma City following a brief hearing.

When the country eventually breaks apart — and it will — the part that rises from the ashes striving for freedom will have to have a hard look at whether third-world immigrants should remain, unless they have salable skills. This trash from hellholes like Somalia is hastening our demise.

...America Now Swarming with Somali Muslims – Thousands More to Come

Paul L. Williams, Ph.D. – The Last Crusade, October 29th, 2010

In a determination letter to Congress, President Barack Obama has announced
that he will allow an additional 80,000 immigrants – - mostly from Islamic
countries – - to resettle in the United States during fiscal year 2011.

Over 15,000 will come from Africa – - most from Somalia.

The increase in Somali immigrants, according to Mr. Obama, “is justified by
humanitarian concerns or is otherwise in the national interest.”

The actual number of Somalis have been resettled in the United States during
the past two decades remains a matter of conjecture, since reports to
Congress from the Office of Immigration and Naturalization Services (INS)
were not filed before 1993.

These official reports display the following figures:

1993: 4413

1994: 3508

1995: 2524

1996: 6440

1997: 4948

1998: 2952

1999: 4321

2000: 6002

2001: 4940

2002: 242

2003: 1708

2004: 12,814

2005: 10,101

2006: 10,220

2007: 6958

2008: 2,523

2009: 4,189

2010: 6,200 – - including 5,800 Somalis from the Nakivale refuge camp in
Uganda.

But the above figures are totally askew and inaccurate.

By 2004, according to the Associated Press, over 50,000 Somalis had settled
in Minnesota alone, with 30,000 in Minneapolis.[1]

The error in calculation stems from the fact that many Somalis who arrived
here illegally or on temporary visas never returned to their homeland. It
also attests to the failure of the INS to realize that the Somali Muslims
practice polygamy and that the average Somali woman gives birth to six
children.

These latter considerations explain why budgeoning Somali communities have
now cropped up in Lewiston, Maine; Greeley, Colorado; Kansas City, Missouri;
Buffalo, New York; San Diego, California; Washington D.C.; and New York
City.

There are problems with the Somali immigants

According to the Los Angeles Times, the overwhelming majority are extremely
primitive and have to be taught how to use doorknobs and lightswitches.

The Times goes on to say that they persist in such Islamic practices as
brutal wife-beating and female genital mutilation.

What’s more, the Somali youth have created such violent street gangs as the
Somali Hot Boyz, the Somali Mafia, and the Madhibann with Attitude – - gangs
that have been responsible for scores of rapes and homicides.

Hundreds have returned to Somali to join al-Shabaab and to take part in the
great jihad against Christians, Jews, and all non-Muslims.

Strange to say, a favorite location for the Somali newcomers is the
economically depressed town of Lewiston, Maine, where members of the Bantu
tribe, began arriving in 2001 at the rate of 100 a month.

Mohammed Maye, the president of the African Community and Refugee Center in
Clarkston, Georgia posted a map of Lewiston on the wall of his office. “Go
to Maine,” he advised the Somali immigrants. ...

Will we have a war to free these white slaves? Will they get reparations from the Federal Government?.

How could this go on for 10 years unless it was being covered up by local authorities?

“The indictment says the sex trafficking ring operated for 10 years, with the defendants recruiting young girls to engage in sex acts.

One girl was just 13 when, in 2005, she was taken from the Minneapolis area to an apartment in Nashville to engage in prostitution, it said.”

Islam and liberalism turn human beings into viral monsters. Annihilate them all.

We have 50,000 of them here in Columbus

I guess you don't get to your Columbus airport very often. The security and baggage handling staff is replete with Somalis from top to bottom. You can recognize them by their tribal scars.

Some interesting sermons have been recorded in their mosques, too. Or, you might want to check out a couple of ER docs who have had to repair the female circumcision cases. Or perhaps a couple of schoolteachers. Or your housing authority, which has coped admirably by provioding subsidized and free housing for polygamous families.

We know all about Somalis in Maine. Wish we didn't. Brought in here by Catholic Charities working with state and federal authorities. No Christian refugees allowed.

[Joan912]

Catholic Charities is catholic in name only. God help the Christians who have been left behind to face their brutal Islamic masters...

[Art in Idaho]

Thanks for the info. Never been to Columbus, so all new to me. What a crazy policy - and Islamists to boot. . Wonder what the Catholic Charities thingy was? . and no Christians? More research. .

A good barometer for all immigrants.

[buccaneer81]

Oh, I know all about Port Columbus. And Lewiston, too. I fly to Maine a few times a year; was in Presque Isle last month.

I did cheer a few years ago when somebody threw the severed pig's head into the Lewiston mosque.

[Kenny Bunk]

<....was in Presque Isle last month.

Working the potato crop, were you? BTW, we don't call it "Lewiston." It's L.A. (Lewiston-Auburn). We was hoping by changing the name, we could get some of that "Global Warming," long promised but never delivered.

IMHO, it's why we went solid Republican this year.

[buccaneer81]

No, not harvesting ;-) Last time I did that I was 14 (1977.) Hard work back then.

I have relatives in Houlton and Caribou. Had to go to a wedding.

[Moonman62]

Man, am I out of the loop. I didn't know there were 50,000 Somalis in the whole US. What percentage are here legally?

They are legal. They are here because of a Bush family project.
