The day I wrote that post I was just in a mood to go hunting whale and thought I would throw a harpoon and see where it landed and if it would hit something soft and vital.
Apology accepted, gratefully so.

There's been a community of Somali Bantu refugees here in Columbia, SC since 2004. The US took like, 12,000 of them, they're all over (Columbus, Portland, Sioux Falls, NY, TX, etc.). And that's just one oppressed minority in one war-torn country.
To my knowledge, there are no Muslim refugees in Arkansas. There is a small Sunni (well, I assume they're Sunni. They're Arabs, not Iranians, so I'm guessing they're probably Sunni) community in Little Rock, though, and I've been trying to find their mosque so I can ask them if it's alright if I observe one of their prayer services. I see them walking around every now and then, but I don't want to just run up to them and start asking questions. They're just trying to live their life like everyone else, ya know? And not everyone likes to be interrupted while out with their family.
