Whites are not the only ones who have the right to be free. What gives us the right to take over the land of Native Americans and think it’s OK, but we cannot have other cultures and religions coming into our community?

That’s just plain selfish!

Even though they are different on the outside, that doesn’t mean that on the inside they are different. So what if they talk different, dress different and even act different? We are all the same.

Somalis fled a country full of violence and unsafe living conditions. Why is it only the whites who have the right to be free? Anyone who seeks freedom should have the opportunity to.

How would you like it if you had to be pushed in things you don’t like doing, being hit and tortured every day?

They just need a safe place to live and to be accepted, but instead we treat them as animals.

I would like to live in a community that supports one for all, living in peace.
