When 24-year-old Abdirizak Warsame came home from prison over the summer, his family welcomed him with his favorite foods and long talks with the siblings he hadn't seen in three years. They were reunited, grateful for a fresh start.
Outside of their house in Minneapolis, however, Abdirizak's homecoming was a different story.
Snitch. Liar. FBI informant. Those are the labels attached to Abdirizak and his family in the large Somali-American community in the Twin Cities. Word of his release added salt to a deep wound. Abdirizak was among nine young men who planned to travel to Syria to join ISIS. They were busted by the FBI, slapped with serious terrorism charges, and left with a choice: To cooperate with the feds or not.

Of course we need to let more people like his neighbors into the country because there is strength in diversity correct?

SSG Ben Woart - LOL, I would prefer people who support our laws and customs instead of considering people who help the FBI as traitors. Would you prefer to get rid of White People? Diversity is an interesting thing. We seem to only support diversity that fits our cultural norms. When I was in Korea before the Olympics they used to slowly strangle dogs before they butchered them in the open meat markets. Should well allow that? If not you must prefer no orientals in America per your logic.
