Unlike the big box warehouses, the Somali shops have no insurance to claim for their lost. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
galbeedi Posted May 29, 2020 This has nothing to do with police . It is an excuse by criminals destroying and looting businesses. Police mishandling people is happening to everyone. Here there was a a man with medical issues and they left him hand cuffed inside police van where he died. Yet, anarchists are using police misdeeds to destroy business. I will never cry for the death of a criminal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Holac Posted May 30, 2020 I heard from Somali friends in Minneapolis that some "Trump supporters" are doing lots of damage, mixing with the crowd and starting fires and property damage. Nobody knows who these people are, never seen them in the area and they all looked like anarchists from out of state, mainly white farm boys. My friends were very serious. The Black sheep crowd from North Minneapolis mainly were just following the violence and imitate and loot in the chaos, but the main instigators are way more sophisticated. Their agenda is total different. In the end, many mindless black protesters also copied the tactics of the "undercover" protesters and started their own fires. Be careful to label what you see on TV.

Unlike , blacks or minorities, right wingers are people with no emotions.It is possible that people with sinister agenda at works. At the end of this riots , some even might label Minneapolis as Mogadishu, or Somalis as the main instigators even though few Somalis participate this. Yet, Somalis are the best to join any band wagon, whether its from the gulf or Afghanistan. Dhaan dad kale merel u rartay ayey iska daba galayaan. The police system has lost some of its integrity and public service. Night club bouncers, police wanna be security offers and weak minded men are joining the ranks.Imagine four able bodied men can not control a drunk man with hand cuffs . THe police could be the reflection of society. Scumbags joining the force to be men. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maakhiri1 Posted May 31, 2020 I think this conspiracy that it is Trump supporters doing damage is false, this yes has something to do with Trump, it is injustice building over decades. Yes, It may help Trump win in Nov, but think, and don't just believe all conspiracy theories. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
galbeedi Posted May 31, 2020 beside conspiracy, there is underlying hot political issue burning inside many people. For the staunch Trump crowd, it is do or die election. Despite the crimes of the police and sympathy people might have for the deceased , there is large majority of whites who strongly object this mayhem of torching innocent businesses in main street America. Furthermore, when you reach a certain age, you are disposed to social order than social justice. If these riots and destruction continues this summer, the silent majority might vote for social order than social justice and vote for Trump. It did happen in 1968 when America was engulfed by Vietnam war and other protests, and people elected Nixon. At the same time the far right will do anything to further their agenda including undermining peaceful protest. Also, the far left anarchists and the far right fascists have some overlapping interests like bringing down the established order. 12% of those who voted for Bernie Sanders voted for TRump in the general election of 2016. This were supposed to be leftist democrats. I hope Somalis in Minneapolis to stay away from these riot and support law and order. Besides, those of us who left our homeland because of war and anarchy should not encourage instability in our new homes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That statement of yours only showes how many of us Somalis have some grave identity issues to regards weather they are black or not. Colonialism teaches us not to show solidarity and see each others misery. What happened was simply injustice. That man who died could have been a somali. I do not think that racist cops in diffrentitate between blacks. Systematic and structural racism have taken its toll on the black community. Its not a secret why they are dying. When crack in 80-ties was seen a black drug politicals were calling for cold harsh sentencing, when opiate pills created havoc in the white community it was called a "national health emergency".
