    Please just answer one question for our community -- is the goal of Islam to eventually establish Sharia law in the United States in place of the current U.S. Constitution? It is troubling to see many Muslims online state that they would prefer to live under Sharia law and not the Constitution! This question does not appear to be addressed in local discussions.

      Do you even know what sharia law is? Me praying 5 times a day is sharia law, fasting, wearing the hijab.......are sharia law.
      Of course I and any other muslim would prefer to live under sharia law because sharia law is made by God. Also, islam tells us to follow the laws of the land of which we live in. When I am walking outside and wearing my hijab I am following sharia law and when I am obeying the US constitution I am following the constitution. Not even one single muslim is trying to change the constitution into sharia. But I understand where you coming from........... the media

      Under Sharia law what is the punishment for criticizing the Quran? How about if a non Muslim marries a Muslim under Sharia law? See Christians don’t like it they call it a sin and God will punish you. If Muslims don’t like it THEY PUNISH YOU in the name of Allah!

    The question to ask though is why did they have to flee their own countries? - and is their cultural/ideological/religious belief system responsible for the answer to the above question?
    Once assessing that, one must wonder, in large enough numbers, barring mass assimilation, will these people reproduce such a dysfunctional society HERE???
    - and by looking at the larger communities of them in the large urban context of Minneapolis/St. Paul, of course meeting the above conditions of non-assimilation, I would say yes, to the proportion of the influx of their unassimilated numbers, one will see more and more of an approximation of their homeland's dysfunction, corruption and instability. This is only logical.

    I try to be as nice as possible to Somalis in town. They get enough bad attitudes towards them that I try to counter that by being as nice as possible. I'm generally rewarded with a smile and only rarely get snubbed.

      InsaneGaming 96 MN isn’t that white; there’s plenty of African Americans, Somalis, Native Americans, Hmong, Hispanic folks here. It’s just really white when you get far away from cities.

      Probably, Cletus, the same way the Native Americans felt when White colonists ethnically replaced them in their own country within a decade. * blank stare *

      IF YOU DON'T WANT IMMIGRANTS, FOREIGNERS, TELL YOUR GODDAMN GOVERNMENT NOT TO TAKE THEM IN. WHEN THE LOCALS ARE BEING SHITTY TO THEM, IT DOESN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM AND MAKES EVERYONE ELSE'S LIFE HARD. TELL YOUR GODDAMN GOVERNMENT TO CLOSE DOWN EMBASSIES AND NOT TO ISSUE VISAS, GREEN CARDS AND CITIZENSHIP. They have other countries they can move into. I am a foreigner and I was welcomed by two other great countries but came to the US because your goddamn government says that diversity is welcome and the country is built on the values of freedom and hard work. So I came only to see shitty people like you not respecting American values but stay at home , do nothing but criticize. Why is this so hard? Of course dumb people like you make this world a bad to place to live in. And what are you doing for America? These people work so hard and do jobs Americans are not willing to do! Do your resesarch!

      Niro Ranas NO. YOU ARE LYING. When we elect a president who will try to reduce immigration YOU start crying that he and the people who elected him are Nazis. We were not asked if we wanted this.

      Niro Ranas “jobs Americans are not willing to do”. NO. You’ve been told this by NGO’s charities and activists with a subversive agenda. What a way to characterise the people OF THIS COUNTRY. YOU are just repeating hateful talking points given to you by globalists who want you here to vote left and work for less money than Americans will.
