Thats the kind of reaction I would expect here in the US, khat is a relatively obscure, so I was checkin on the accuracy of the report.
I don't know any somalis, and the Ethiopians I know don't chew khat, most of em don't even smoke weed, and fact a lot of them don't even know that I smoke weed (well at least I don't broadcast it to them)
while it is illegal in the US, I am very sure that Somalis and Ethiopian muslims here in diaspora have plenty of access, prohibition in America has never restricted the flow of the contraband, often it even increases it.
