Yea, it's not really worth it.

Will they only arrest the chewing people or all of you sitting there. I get nightmares on shit like that especially when u are protecting a license that is your means of earning. I get allitle an easy but then I'm like screw it I'm not the one chewing. I still feel like someone kick my stomach when I hear siren outside lol Very hard to say bro. Most likely they'd put everyone in cuffs until they figure out what's going on. Very similar to what happens when they kick down a crack/meth houses on the TV show COPS. They'd probably run your license to see if you have any outstanding warrants or other priors for drug arrests. If your friends could say you dont chew (and they dont have Jawaans of Khat laying around the place:)), than you are probably safe if you are caught up in a situation like that.

Chicago Man arrested after receiving Khat shipment's from overseas. Rockford, Illinois . Rockford has a major drug problem, but police arrest a man for something most of us have never heard of. It's call khat, an illegal plant used in some African cultures to get high. On Monday, Ahmed Hussen Hassan of Chicago, 32, was arrested after he took possession of a package mailed from overseas to a hotel in the area of East State Street and Interstate 90. Police claim the package contained more than 15 pounds of khat, a shrub that grows in the Horn of Africa. Ahmed Hussen Hassan, 32.

Garaabo Brings down another Farah in another state. Lincoln, Nebraska. A fast paced cooperative effort by Nebraska State Patrol investigators in conjunction with the Tri-City Drug Task Force resulted in the arrest of a Grand Island man and the seizure of nearly 75 lbs. of KHAT. Farhan Hussein Abdi, 24.

A man with 15lbs of 'Garaab' aka Khat busted. Fargo, North Dakota. FARGO, N.D. (AP) — Fargo police say they seized about 15 pounds of khat during an arrest at an apartment on Saturday.

You really have accomplished a lot sxb, and i hope you continue to do so. One thing i am going to give you credit for is, you are at least living back home and know a lot more of what's going on than some of the people that post here. I'd take you opinion than some of the people here. One more thing sxb, stay outta trouble so you wouldn't be locked up. Congratulations though!

Safferz who normally updates us on these things is out on vacation somewhere in Ethiopia. I am sure if there is any new breaking news, she's share it with us here on SoL.

Now i see why you got banned.

I bet in the coming days, Cadaan people in the media would use this to rail against minorities.

If this guy is the best Somalia has to offer, than the country is in a worse situation than i thought. A country of almost 20 million and this is who they want to put in power? Just by looking at him, you could tell this guy probably has few bodies buried somewhere. He got 'em serial killer eyes and look at about him.

''it's NOT about race but about gun-ownership.'' . i sort of agreed. apparently, there was a similar incident within days of this shooting. a black female tried to shot her boyfriend but he managed to escape. apparently, she went down for 22 years. WTF. anyone know about this case. it would've been interesting to compare, you know. Yea, AI. According to the prosecutors at the time, they said this chick had enuff time to leave, but instead went to her car, got a gun, returned to the house and fired it. So they said she doesn't qualify for the 'stand your ground' defense thingy.

Good for them. Garrisa is part of Kenya, so this has nothing to do with us.
