Why don’t they just hire all of them, as “police officers” in minnyapoolis? They can shoot all of the unarmed white women that they like … and still stay on the payroll, without ever being charged. Heck, isn’t that the minnysoootah way?

I used to think the people in Minnesota were tough and smart…..not anymore. They are predominately of Germanic/Slavic descent…..They’ve allowed their state to be turned into a shi!!e hole like the place the “refugees” came from…..that’s why people are now calling Dearborn….Dearbornastan…..Exactly what is happening to Germany and other Slavic countries…..So…is it DNA or just plain stupid?
Apparently these states like them can’t figure out why companies are avoiding building there, people are avoiding spending vacation money there….and many people from Minnesota are leaving there…… the same for Michigan.

Our East Coast states (minus Alabama and Georgia so far), our West coast states, our Southern border and now the Northern Border are all being overrun by enemies of America…..the next Civil War will be from the center of our country out ….We are surrounded. Keep your powder dry and your weapons loaded…

It most certainly looks that way, islam is belligerent, muslims are violent, they will attempt to seize violently what they can’t steal.

Somalis are the worst, lesser life forms than cockroaches. My idea would be to re-locate all the Somali interloping termites into the middle of Lake Superior. Let’s see if they can swim.

They don’t even have to go that far this time of year.

Even though Lake Superior is mostly frozen now, just dump ’em in the middle of the lake in summer clothes.

These are people who often arrived in the U.S. NOT KNOWING HOW TO WORK A DOORKNOB. The average Somali IQ is 69. 68-71 is considered borderline retarded. I have personally observed a Somali woman physically abuse her own small children in the middle of a Wal-Mart. They tend to be unusually sullen and nasty to non Somalis, even those trying to help them. Medical services in Minnesota are already being swamped by inbred genetic disorders – the result of traditional lst cousin marriage. The World Health Organization states : 1 in 3 Somalis have mental illnesses, 90% are inbred by more than 3 generations, 70% by more than 15 generations . Autism and related disorders are endemic.

Somali gangs are a fact of life wherever there are Somalis. Large numbers of these ‘New Minnesotans’ are brutalized and dehumanized by years of anarchy and war.

You have to understand, they must travel in gangs because alone they can’t figure out how to open the door. It’s the old how many somalis does it take to open a door problem. Ten. Nine to chew on some khat, one to look around for an axe.

No wonder they can’t make it in Somali: They are too “stupid” (a 19th Century medical term) to take care of themselves.

Leave the Somalis and their perpetual beggar cousins, the Ethiopians, in Africa. They are not Whitey’s problem except that the Left wants to buy their votes through perpetual welfare.

Shut off the free natural gas and electricity and the “problem” will be solved in the course of one MN winter. Ditto: Canada, Sweden, Belgium, Denmark and all other cold, northern countries.

It is only through White-provided welfare that the coons are able to live and breed without restriction until the parasite kills the host either through the:
— direct extermination of Whites via murder, or,
— forcing of Whites to work / slave endlessly and to be taxed to death to provide for the parasites lying around and breeding with multiple wives and concubines.

This has always been the limiting factor in Islamic conquest: Once the conquered civilization dies out and stops working to provide the taxes to support the Muslim beggars, the Islamic conquest collapses because the Muslims can’t do the work required to maintain a White civilization. At that point, the formerly White civilization joins the Third World where there is no electricity, running water, cars or roads to drive on, etc.

The $18 million bill needs to be sent to the Catholic and Lutheran churches for bringing the beggar Somalis to MN.

If the MN Catholic and Lutheran churches don’t want to pay up, their bank accounts and real estate need to be seized through condemnation proceedings to pay the debt.

The nerve of these churches bringing beggars into the state to live off of White taxpayer-provided welfare in perpetuity. Welfare is for people who have paid into the system so if they fall on hard times, they will have created a cushion for themselves to fall back on, i.e. social insurance. Welfare is not a way for the Left to buy votes from imported Africans who have never paid into the system = the Left stealing and cheating Whitey yet again. Dumb, stupid Whitey!!!

Sue the Catholic and Lutheran churches under RICO for trying to bankrupt MN with never ending welfare for the Africans and devaluing the real estate of native Minnesotans. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racketeer_Influenced_and_Corrupt_Organizations_Act

Once a Lefty law, like the Refugee Act (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refugee_Act), is passed, it is like a vampire, nearly impossible to kill.

Yes, the Refugee Act needs to be repealed and Congress should pass separate laws any time a refugee situation arises like pulling the Whites out of South Africa. The Refugee Act has spawned whole industries which assume that refugees and fakers will be with us always and that it is the US taxpayer’s responsibility to babysit them.

Uhhh….we actually pay Catholic organizations for “resettlement” of the invaders….they get millions of our tax dollars to help place our future murders in amongst us…why do you think the Pope comes over here and lectures Congress about how awful we are for not taking in more? It’s about the gold they get from us…..it has nothing to do with compassion or any other crapola….it’s about fleecing Americans of their hard earned money to feed the Marxist Catholic coffers…..

Well ppl, I don’t want to be a party pooper, but after reading the document I don’t see any specifics. Every paragraph and sub-paragraph is an open nebulous statement of paradigms to be determined by the grantor. If the RINOS like what they see then throw some tax payer money to them. I am in favor of a program(s) which teach these ppl how to work, have character, and learn our language and ethics. I don’t see any of this happening. We need to vote out the RINO’S.
