“A group of five Minnesota women preparing for a friend's wedding by getting henna tattoos were killed Friday night after a driver trying to speed away from police slammed into their car.
Sabiriin Ali, 17; Sahra Gesaade, 20; Salma Abdikadir, 20; Sagal Hersi, 19; and Siham Adam, 19 were identified as the victims of the horrific incident. Three are cousins, one a relative and another a close friend.
The women were doing last-minute shopping at a Minneapolis mall Friday and having the tattoos applied for a friend's wedding the next day. They were on the way home when the crash happened.
They started to drive down Lake Street just before 10 p.m. when an SUV being followed by a state trooper ran a red light and smashed into their car.
All five were pronounced dead at the scene of the crash. …”

Balzé HalzéThat's just horrible.
And I'm frankly a bit bewildered by your thread title.

This.
Years ago when I played hockey and was camping up there (mid 80's), Minneapolis was blond hair, blue eyed Sweeds, Fins and Norwegians, a handful of Germans in there too.
Now it's one of the largest population of Somalis outside of that shithole.

trapper189If y’all hadn’t left, then the people would look kinda the same, but old. The young women didn’t get that chance. I kinda wonder what the Ojibwe and Dakota think about your observation.

bendableGrowing up in Iowa City, with the students at The University of Iowa,
I grew up with people of all nationalities.
It was the norm.
I think seeing it ,hearing them was beneficial overall.
Their appearance was not any problem, but the rude and antisocial hicks from the weeds were very problematic.
The hypocrisy was appalling ,even when I was nine y.o.
