I won't blame you if all you know is Hudson Ave area and you saw "some" Somali's that won't talk to you! and, I won't blame them either.
whatever the cause, you just sound "mad" about the Somali's, tell me the real reason! so (may be) I and everyone else, in this webside, will understand your issue. However, if you don't have any Legit reason, stop the BS!.
Haha YES IT IS!!! Watch the news or look it up on the net. THIS YEAR COLUMBUS BECAME THE CITY WITH THE MOST SOMALIS IN AMERICA!!!! I only posted one thing about me disliking Somalis soooo where do come up with everything I post is hate related??? Homie I could tell you who Somalis really are and it will destroy your made up world. Haha your saying I have problems man you don't even treat your women like people!! Thats hate right there and don't say its your culture thats no excuse for hatred. HERE i'll give you one reason how about a gun to the face for going down the wrong street and your not the right color? How about OP, A1, CP, TREE HOUSE, TP, AL, HILLSDALE and CH? Just some of the Somils gangs in my area. I live in the real world out on the streets not this so called website so none of these people who disagree with me has never lived my strugle like my friends, family or just plan out people in my area has had.
I said I disliked them not that I was going to go to somones house and beat them up or kill them. Does anyone else think its just stupid to provoke hate with even more hate?

This is how race wars start!!! OOO lets not talk it out like reasonable adults lets just fight like animals because one person said FU lets just act worse and cause that man harm. Nobody ask why cause words just seem not to work anymore I guess. Please no one say that I provoked this man to harm me

mrb69,

I live by Cleveland and dont know a whole lot about Somalis, I lived and have been in Columbus a lot of times, Ive seen Somalis but never noticed much about them.

What is it that makes you hate them so much?. Im not doubting you or trying to make them sound like perfect people, but can you give me some examples of things they did to you or things that you have heard that made you hate them so much?

I hate the way they treat women like there not even people. So many times has there been a somili man showing disrespect to my mother or any other female that I know by calling them a racial slur and dirty things just because there color and gender. I hate how if I said something bad because of the disrespect shown the first thing they do is pull a gun. I hate that every time I go to a somili shop in Northland and I don't buy something they tell me to go back to the ghetto. I've heard them tell whites to go back to the hills and F there cuzz. I've heard them tell blacks to go back to winstor terrace. I hate the drugs they bring here from there country that only causes more problems with crime in my area which means more murders, drive-bys, shootings and fights. When a good person stands up and calls the police it takes them about 30min to and hour to get there. I've had friends die because the problems that lead to drugs.
I hate the somili gangs that try to be like SNP,WTP and 22nd even acouple have got up to those ranks like A1 and CP. The gangs are even in the schools and if you show disrespect to them they'll jump you in the bathroom or even in front of your house.

Theres alot of reasons but i'm kinda tried so if you want me to tomarrow I will tell you every single thing down to the last detail about why I dislike them.

I may be moving to Columbus from Puerto Rico next January... and I am very concern, as you are, about the race factor. People have so many wrong stereotypes about us, puertoricans.. many people think we are all ignorant and criminals...well, the truth is we are not. I have an education and I will be moving to work not to depend on goverment support. I will be moving with my family and I hope that my kids will not have any problems with racism at all. I am very proud of my heritage and my cultural mix and I think that Columbus will be a great place to raise our family.

In my experience, Columbus is less racist than most places. You shouldnt have a problem.

However, if you didnt know already, Columbus doesnt have that big of a puerto rican community, or really even a hispanic community. There is some, but still not many. If your coming from Puerto rico(or anyplace with a large hispanic community), there will seem like theres none at all. Columbus seems to be increasing in diversity though.
