Somalis in Minnesota ...

[Mik]

I'd have to agree. They've made a godawful mess of their own country.

Not to mention Islam above a certain percentage becomes a threat to western civilization and small-l liberal values. Latinos not so much.

I always found it funny that folks from such a hot place migrated to such a cold place. FYI the main "hub" (similar to Little Italy, China Town, etc...) is the Somali group you see here:

Balkanization.

If they remove all those Somalis who's going to be left to vote for Ilhan Omar?

The problem isn’t the undocumented Somalis, it’s the ones documented and registered to vote in Ilhan and whasserface in the Senate that is the problem. They move into one small congressional district and suddenly one extremely small outlier migrant group wields outsized political power in a divided nation.

And while a lot of these far right groups can be bigoted and irrationally xenophobic, their point about there being some cultures that can’t truly be folded into our American tapestry is not without some merit.

There's nobody that hates intolerant people more than other intolerant people.
