Did you not read my statment MR. FAKE? Or did you just take a glance? I stated that LOSERS only know LOSERS. A doctor would not be friends with a bus driver.

Therefore, if you see yourself with these people or know them chances are you too are a loser.

Why do wish to see our somali community divided along socio-economic lines?? when its already divided along tribal ones?
Clans are something you can't change, it's a born status. But anyone can be wealthy, if people stay on the buttom level of society is it only their doing. This has nothing to do with division!

Snowflakes, Mexicans are disrespected In the United States, why cant we like other communities, ie Asian, West Africans and Middle Easterners. There are lot of Liberian and Burgundian refugees in here and all them work in factories and Wallahi I haven't seen any of them driving taxi.
Hell, they come clubbing weekends and guess who gives them lift back home? Yea you guessed, fcking Skinny Somali

I actually went to Minnesota before, and let me tell you something. I left in 2 days. I thought I was in the twilight zone.

Its inevitable. In the next 10 -15 years, there will be more middle class Somalis and people will probably only associate with those in their income bracket. I think its a good thing and hopefully it motivates people.

Alluring, please go away. I am tired of your juvenile tit-for tat attitude. Why are you bringing the conversation from last night to this thread :o

I can understand the concern.

Near my house there are countless numbers of takeaways..mostly owned by south asians..it is annoying and an eyesore and frankly if i were the townplanner i wouldnt give license to half these places.

when one or two do that..its okay..but when almost EVERYONE is at it then there is a problem..the best way to overcome this problem is for someone to give them expert career advice..they should be shown the diversity of the jobs they can get into etc...wa inaa lawada taliyo.


Alluring taxidrivers are not losers. They do an important job...but yeah Somalis should get into other fields too.
Its not acceptable to say doctors shouldnt befriend them..no offense walaal but I find this statement of yours deeply troubling to be honest.

Hooyadiin wasa those taxi drivers make more money than you and your welfare receipt parents make in a year and in a very short period of time, they will be running their own businesses while you fockers slave at a 9-5 job where you get a $1 raise every 10 years.

Qansa, there isn't a problem if they go to different cities, there are Taxi drivers in Las Vegas, I wouldn't have problem with it, cuz nobody know Somalia over there. But in Minnesota, Walaahi its hugely insulting . The 2000 or so Taxi Drivers need to get a freaking another job or go to Dallas, Texas or other states,where nobody knows them
