There will be hyperbole in the responses you get so Lady Admin allow me to allude to the content.

It was a survey using random sampling on a scale of 1-5 to gauge how anyone who deems himself a Kenyan feels toward his Kenyan or non-Kenyan Somali brothers and sisters with a reasoned why. The variables being security linked events and reports in the country with the key event being the developments at Westgate

The respondents are Wazuans who deemed reflective of the prevalent attitudes and actual events on the ground in the last 72hrs being the prime motivator to the question.



As for me, nothing has changed.
The people bombing us are not ALL Somalis. They [Somalis] are fighting the same Al Shabab.

If you have no wedge to drive, KILL this thread.

You might want to view with a keen eye,fresh Moslem converts, not Somalis.


The post sought to answer that specific question it laid out not the various applicable narratives that you mention.

I am personally privy to info that the Kenyan security forces have been carrying out arrests against members of the Somali community since Saturday evening in areas other than those reported in the media and holding people without charge for days. The profiling against Somalis is almost official now. The backlash is here.

If that is how you also feel, OK. However, you lost me in "Captain Phillip"?

It was about how we Kenyans feel when we come across a somali waria on the streets following the happenings at Wesget!

As in do you feel like muddering a Somali you meet at the street or you feel nothing?



I dont think I would want to kill any...aiish thats too harsh..its more of being uncomfortable if they are fully covered(ninja) or carrying a bag...I guess it a normal reaction at the moment @ Alpha i feel you..hv somali friends real good, so we need to change and stop black listing a whole community


That is a prevalent statement I'm getting from friends when in public places with strangers. Add an overzealous police force..as Kenyans how do we avoid stigmatization?

Through college and later in life some of my best friends are of Somali origin.

I can say here without fear of contradiction that on a scale of 1-43 Somalis could rank among the top 3 most hardworking and honest 'tribes/ethnic group'

a deal with a Somali is as good as his word and his word is his honour.

That is more that i can say of some ...Sad Sad Sad Lakini WeAreOne

I'm glad you feel me buddy @Nyaiira.
So far so good with the objectivity.
I remember during the time of Mungiki. Some of my trusted business partners are Kyuks. Please note these are exceptional guys, but majority aren't. During this time, I never, ever treated any of my Kyuk people as suspect, becuase I know it was not about the community!

@ecstacy, is anyone wearing a buibui considered a somali? I do believe, we have a variety of different communities hapa North Eastern? and not all are privy to the acts that we saw at westgate...so, no hard feelings...but I missed your earlier thread...
