A Reader Can’t Believe The Somali Bantu Scandal

From: John Dunbar:

"‘Do not assume they can open a door just because it has a doorknob,’ [refugee bureaucrat] Chanoff said.”

Here's an interesting article in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, and found at the Freerepublic site regarding importing 12,000 illiterate and perhaps untrainable Somali Bantus:

A quote:

"How does one begin to teach the relevance of time and dates and schedules? What about sensitizing people to the nuances of shopping and cooking and eating, when they won't recognize food in the supermarkets? How does one prevent children from sticking a finger into an electric socket or garbage disposal, falling down stairs, scalding themselves with a faucet or straying into the road?"
