LOL, that is the first thing that jumped out at me. Answer: Compliments of the American taxpayer.

“Somalis who in recent years regrouped and rallied around one another”

How about rallying around the victims? Maybe the country?

These guys have assimilated! They already have victimhood down to a science. Poor babies.

Absurd.

One would think that the stupidest people in this country are totally illiterate and get their information by listening, such as listening to radio. But actually the reverse is true. The smartest people are getting the information through talk radio, and the stupidest people are getting their information by reading newspapers such as this from WGN, self-proclaimed world’s greatest newspaper, because ANYONE who attaches any credibility to what they read here is the definition of terminally stupid.

Because he (along with the rest of the coffee shop customers) is collecting some kind of government assistance, but since he is a muzzie, he automatically feels both superior and a victim (in either case, he deserves the assistance). Also, as a muzzie, he is taught to disbelieve his own lying eyes. Thus, he can honestly believe the United States is worse than a 3rd World hellhole.

Minneapolis, city of my birth, started changing in the 70's & 80's. Used to be very conservative (at least I felt that way), but we started getting a lot of transplant New Yorker's (the libs, not the good ones).

Then politics started changing to where the state felt that it needed to be the "daddy"... People found out about it and voila, mass movement of deadbeats and welfare cheats moved to Minnesota.

The rest is history.
