How did Somalis embrace the gang culture so easily?

Post by PureQ »

As I said before, I usually feel ashamed and embarrass when I am with friends and a horde of loudmouthing Somali hoodrats/2pac wannabes are nearby behaving all uncivilized because of my association with them. Even with my civilized manners/traits/behavior and dressing as a normal person, I believe my friends would think I am like them because of our nationality.

This is the problem with Somalis especially the Hawiye. They react quickly, cause problems, look suspicious when a cadaan shows up and even gang people up for the laugh. Many people dislike us and we do not have good reputation because of this. Not other reason but the gang problems which leads to crimes in high numbers thereby creating anti-Somali sentiment among cadaans. This even create more harm for Somalis in general.

We are not African Americans for fuck sake. How did we embrace their gang culture so easily? I wish the Western government would deport all of the gang-obsessed/hoodrat Somalis back to Xamar because they contribute nothing in the West but creating more anti-Somali sentiment.

I'd rather these hoodlum scum remain in the west and not pollute the kids back home. Let's leave these ppl here and go back home to a clean culture.

Btw, what was the dig at Hawiyes about? I'm from Canada and know many many of these types of ppl, and trust me they are 4.5 in tribal composition. Wax la moodaa in la soo xulay lol.

Gangs are tribes , not bound by blood but by consent , therefore it is very easy for the unrefined tribesmen to fall into into it .

Deprivation. For example, if you live on an estate where this is the norm, waad ku dayanisa. Low educational attainment means no shaqo hagaagsan. Criminal record means no legal job at all. All that is left to do if u wanna survive is make some haram money. It's hard to get out of this lifestyle. Say u stop dealing drugs, what you gonna eat? U need a legal job first. People make mistakes. We should have naxariis. There's good in everybody. Remember the prostitute that fed a thirsty dog and went to jannah cos of that? We should lift people up, not put down. I do have a saviour complex but just remember the prostitute thing. :up:

If you look at the history of gangs in the US which through its cultural projection exports it through music or movies ...gangs started as a noble thing . In essence , we { insert ethncic group} were bullied so we had to unite in order to defend ourselves . But very quickly the power they obtain makes these gangs ending up bulliying the very people they claimed they wanted to defend . One of the weirdest thing :lol:
In fact it is a congregation of the cowards , those who cannot take pain and continue to function without retaliating in some way or the other

Saxib what is wrong with Somalis? Why do they love this lowlife crap? I have experienced this in my family first hand.

My older sister used to hang out with the wrong crew back then so after finding out through gossip and someone recording videos, my mother and grandmother locked themselves in a room with her and tagged teamed on her on the belt and whooped the living shit out of her for 1 hour straight shouting "hoogto waad na ceebeyse" countless times. maskiinta I still remember her cabaad :lol:

that evening everyone was called from the grandfathers to even the gossip birds. They gave her good advice and a detailed map out of that life after they assigned people to look at her every move. My father also straight up told her that he will send a hit squad on her if she was caught again doing that bullshit. Whoever said Somalis don't have honor killings has lied. It's real in Africa.

I don't know about other scenarios but this worked extremely well. almost 9 years later, she's doing really well for herself supporting the entire extended family. Alxamdllah. I wonder if they didn't do this to her what would have happened? She had complete influence over us back then since she is the curad so we would've probably all become shit now.

ka umeona hii usijam qqs :mrgreen: :rose:

You would think we'd be a little similar to the Ethiopians and Eritreans who are level headed here in Canada, but nope, Somalis here choose the gang lifestyle.
