Good for them. I wish i had as much LACAG, or the brains to do something similar.

Wanaagsan oo Wacan Alpha. Safferz, they teach Amharic in school now? That's so cool. I wish i could speak that language (and Spanish) since some of the most beautiful Xalimos in this area are from those places. P.S. Many years ago, when i worked at this restaurant we got this couple who came in to pick up their order. And i asked them if they were from Ethiopia. LoL, the guy almost went off on me and said....'NO, I am from Eritrea, not Ethiopian'. So whenever i meet Ethiopians/Eritreans, i always ask 'em them where they are from before i continue on with 'em.

I haven't been to any ARAB country, so i dont know what the majority of them are like. But i'd give them the benefit of the doubt and say the ones abusing these people are just QASHINS and hopefully dont represent the larger countries/people of Arabs. The ones i met here in the U.S, or my time little time in Nairobi were decent people. Bullies are inherently weak people, and would continue to bully you if you dont stand up to them (regardless if you are cadaan, madow, arab, somali, indho yar), they just feed off on it. There was this Somali bully in my city that use to think he was god's gift to everyone. About 4 yrs ago, there was this Somali Riwaayad/Party and him being the bully picked on some out of state guy (from Seattle, or Wisconsin i think) that came to visit our city. Let's just say he hasnt' being bullying anyone since then. He got brought down couple of notches.

I'd like to think most Arabs (majority) aren't like the ones you see on these videos and are nice decent people. The ones that pick on defenseless people are probably cowards, and have been raised to believe they are superior. If you are ever caught in a situation like that, the best thing to do is to punch one of 'em in the face (element of surprise, because they don't expect their victims to fight back) and they'd think twice about doing that to anyone else. That dude in that video probably grew up in a house where belts were used. LoL. If you are going to fight back, just make sure they aren't 10+ groups, or have bats, knifes or guns. Its amazing how people feel powerful when they are in a group.

AUN.

The internet isn't really a good place to have a discussion about suicide or mental issues since its full of trolls and sarcastic people. I hope people have family/friends they can talk to or can go somewhere to get help, before its too late.

The number of trolls posting from back home would explode.

Suicide is a serious issue, and effects some people. Suicide and mental health is the only thing i never make fun of, or put others down for. Alpha Blondy and Guje i hope things work out for both of you. The person i know who tried to do that is now in stable condition, but the doctors said he'd have permanent damages from the way that stuff happened. I hope he makes out of this OK.

The suicide rate is higher than the homicide rate: Nearly 1/3 more people die at their own hands than die at other people's hand(the murder rate in America is about 6 per 100,000; for suicides it's 10.8) On average, one suicide occurs every 17 minutes. 76% of all suicide deaths are males. So for every two murders you hear about, three other people killed themselves. One reason that people believe homicide is much more common than suicide is because of the news media's selective coverage. Fact!

Ever thought about it? Know anyone who took their life? Discuss

This is the video.

They do exist. I remember watching a video not too long ago of this Somali Albino.

Umm, there are no 40 different languages spoken in Somalia. Dialects yes, but no 40 languages. Each region/gobol/city still speaks Somali, but with their own variation. Even Af.Maay is at least 50% Somali, and i can still understand half of whats being said (well at least to me anyway ). Now, as far as Unity/Somalino goes, that is a separate thing and has different meaning to different people. This is a little more sensitive issue to get into or talk about, because it involves Siyaasad/Qabiil, which we all know is a very emotionally charged topic.

Nothing wrong with marrying them, even with kids. But I'd also have my own kids. This type of marriage is very common in our culture. Miyiidan maqlin 'Isku Hooyaa nahay, oo isku Aabe manihin'?

LoL@ at the Halal lotion/lubricants.

MMA wouldn't you do the same if u could an iPad or Flat screen Tv on half price?

Nuune, sxb kan yari waa ilmahii wadamadan Europe kusoo bar baa ray. Oo moodaya ineey dadka dhaamaam. He's 17yr old (not that there's anything wrong with it ). At least he writes in Somali, that's more than I can say for my 18yr old Ohio born cousin. Haatu waa iska rageedi.

Cadnaan iyo Cadale, waad mahad santihiil. Halkaa kasii wada. Mogtown, Xudunteydaa ku duugan. Right or wrong, I'd always support it.

So took him to the hospital - which meant taking the other two because no one finds a sitter on such short notice - the third had a tantrum in the waiting room, and when my husband picked us up after work, he did NOTHING to help and watched TV all evening while I made dinner and put the kids to bed. I was so fat too you guys, it was horrible Saff, why all boys? Is that what you eventually have? Having grown up in 4 boys, 1 girl household, I know Hooyo wished she had all girls. They are less more more trouble down the road. If I ever get married/settled down, I'd want 1 boy, and the rest girls. Just so I can continue my Aabo bloodline.

Nice Music Kaluun, and Welcome to SoL.

Safferz, the only reason i added General Duke is because of that whole election thing in MN. It was kinda symbolic, much Ado about nothin.

bump!
