MSM Ignores Somali Gang Violence in MN...Except to Frame it as a Problem of "Saving Somali Youth From Violence"
I've long heard that Somalis--especially gangs--perpetrate a lot of violence in Minneapolis.
So I did a search to see what I could find to confirm or disconfirm this.
I did not do an extensive search.
But what I found...well...it seems to confirm my view of the MSM, at least...
I found no stories admitting or discussing the problem per se.
What I did find were this and this...neither story represents Somali violence as a problem per se, or a problem for Minneapolis generally...both are spun like so: Oh, our poor Somali youth...
This story, from a source with which I'm unfamiliar, did pop up:
Obviously this fast search shouldn't be taken too seriously.
It's more like a hypothesis about what we'd be likely to find if we researched this with care.
I just don't think the MSM is likely to admit--even if it's true--that Somalis perpetrating violence is a problem.
Unless they can portray one of their preferred type of groups as victims in some way, I expect them to stay silent unless/until such silence becomes untenable.
Somali gang violence a problem in Minneapolis: nope.
Somali youth in danger of being sucked into Somali gangs: well, ok, if we gotta...
Needless to say, this could all be wrong.
