Somalians win settlement

I read "Four evicted Somalis win settlements" in the Sioux City Journal this week, ok so i have many opinions about this article and i know some insight on the whole situation considering i know the guy that used to manage the arbors. It wasnt a racial thing at all the reason why these people were evicted was because not paying rent, etc. it wasnt a racial thing to get rid of them. I have several friends that live in the Arbors and a lot of somalians still live in those apartments. I feel that these somalians used their race as a excuse to make the arbors look bad and to get some of the money they werent paying back and this makes me angry. Maybe us as white people since we are becoming the minority in this town should start pulling crap like this and we might get some money too. This story really pissed me off and made the management and staff or arbor apartments look bad, which they ARE NOT!!!!!!

i agree with you that if people don't pay their rent they should get evicted and i'm not white. i'm Mexican-American and i have never liked when people use the race card to get their way. i don't think this should have been a racial issue it should have been kept an issue on not paying your bills.

I live in apartmens in South Sioux and there are many somalians living in my building. They often prop open the outside doors to avoide having to have a key to enter. One of the reasons my parents love the apartment i'm in is because its so safe. If the doors are all propped open how is that safe!?
