[quote="snowflakes821"]Yes, Somalis have been killing each other for 17 years in Mogadishu. However, that issue is something not in my control. Evil warlords and war criminals are not people that I can talk to.
However, I can help my fellow Somalis who live in Western countries. Every one of you guys can help Somalis in whatever country you live. Simply reaching out to them can make a world of a difference.[/quote]
i hear you snowfalke, but you know what annoys me the most? why? why should we help these "brothers"? i mean, help poor kids in somalia, giving them food, shelter, better eduction and safety and security is one thing, to worry about these boys in the western society, when food, shelter, better eduction and safety has aready been given to these spoil brats! is another. why should we help them, why should we waste time on people that HAVE been given a chance, a chance of a lifetime; to become something better, stronger,more knowledgeable, and they gave that away for "gang" culture, to follow a culture thats not even theirs, to make mockery out of our culture, our religion and our name. is it worth helping them?
dont get me wrong, i don mean we should compeletly cut them out of ourlives, but it makes me wonder these boys chose that path, its their fault they in that mess, let them deal with it. we got bigger things to worry about. im not being harsh or whatever. but as soon as i finish uni and get the first chance n helping anyone. it will be back home. i will dedicate my life to somali kids in somalia that NEED our help. these ones dont NEED our help they just WANT our help, and there is a difference between NEEDING something and WANTING something.
