Why is it that in a small town where I live we are surounded by Muslim convenience store owners? How and why are they able to secure financing to open such stores? They have drug pipes and more selling in the open? One was closed down for selling alcohol to minors and opened up after 30 days. There are 3 within 1 mile from me right now.

I have a problem with them coming here destitute and being able to get loans (without any credit history) to open up businesses to deal in sketchy transactions with the help of our tax dollars (you know that's how it's happening). I'm positively sure there are local persons that could use that kind of help from our tax dollars first and will never receive it.

Are you sure they're not India Sikhs? They wear turbans. The India store owner close to me couldn't be a nicer man and proudly displays the American flag.
