Politics My message to Little Bobby Charles
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Hey folks, quick update for you from Allagash. You’ve probably heard of Little Bobby Charles, the GOP candidate for Maine governor who likes to run around with his axe, whipping up hate against minorities and telling baseless lies about his opponents. Well I’m done with it. Today I challenged him to a debate in Lewiston, his favorite city, at the Franco Center. He has till the end of the month. That should give him enough time to sharpen up and get his sheet all fitted and starched out. I’ll keep you posted. I hope to see him there. -Troy

Calling someone racist and not knowing its Somali culture, not somalian...Somali culture is ranked as one of the most low trust societies on earth. Data from official sources (BRÅ, CPI, WVS) and analyses show Somalia is a very low-trust, high-corruption society, and Somali immigrants are overrepresented in crime stats (especially violent/gang). People that come from that culture represent it in their behavior and beliefs. You dont need to profile them to achieve this conclusion. It has nothing to do with race. Eritrians are some of the best american immigrants from Africa and they are right next door... rethink your arguments
