Yah sure, I just have to wonder about Minnesotans sometimes.
Of course, there still is freedom of religion so the Koran is definitely appropriate for a Muslim to use instead of a Bible when being sworn into office. A Mormon would use the Book of Mormon, wouldn't they?
They also elected a professional wrestler as their governor, didn't they?
The Swedes and Norskis of Minnesota work harder and longer and pay cash more than other Americans? Never heard that before.
I would think the Somalians would be so far out of their hot, desert environment in Minneapolis that it may help to contribute to some wanting to return to fight on their home continent.
