Somalis not transitioning well in Shelbyville, TN either

I just now wrote a post about an NPR interview that suggests, among other things, that the Minnesota missing Somali youths lured to Somalia by jihadists hadn’t “transitioned well” to America.   Now comes news that Shelbyville, TN has some youths (men!) having problems too.

Khat was confiscated from a vehicle Thursday after police responded to complaints of offensive behavior in the parking lot of the state employment office on North Main Street.

Saad Kassim Omar, 27, of Nashville, was charged with possession of a schedule IV drug and disorderly conduct, Bedford County Jail records show.

Omar and Zein Hussein Bonaya, 27, whose address was not listed in reports, allegedly were drinking, begging money, and making lewd comments to passing women, police said.

Here is a plan for all those not transitioning well, let’s give them a one-way ticket  to join their brethren in Somalia.

We have written extensively on problems with Somalis in Shelbyville, TN.  I wish now we had made an entire category for the topic.   Since we didn’t, you can use our ‘search’ function for Shelbyville and follow the trials that Tennessee town is facing.

Past posts on Khat are here.
