It is at this point when distinction and dissimilarities, prevented a society from developing tolerance and understanding of others. Originating from a violent place does not imply that Somalian are criminals. These exiled individuals have opened successful small business in this state, sent their kids to school, joined the nearby government, and have sewed themselves into the texture of life in Maine.
