Most people know that since Sep 11 this country has increased it's security ten times over. It's no secret that in most small communities there's a small society of arabs living, breathing and contributing like the rest of us. Most of them stick together and pretty much fly under the radar.
That's the case in the small quaint town of Warner Robins GA.
There's a sub communnity of arabs who are Dr's, business owners, engineers, and stay at home mothers who reside in this town. They pretty much fly under the radar and have no real personal ties to anyone accept their own kind.
Hower, in a community like Warner Robins GA "aka" the international city, you're always being watched, especially the arabs.
Warner Robins GA is a southern city that's centered around "Robins AFB."
Most of the folks who live in Warner Robins are military or civilians who work or are retired from Robins AFB. The base is the central point of this town. It keeps this town thriving and at the forefront. So, it's only natural that the gov't and the city will do anything to protect it. That includes watching the sub community of arabs living around Robins AFB.
From what we know, this city has kept an eye on the arabs for years. The local police along with the county law enforcement periodically check up on these individuals to be sure there's no real threat to the community or to any of the surronding areas.
According to the reserve Lt cop that works for the county and the chairman-elect of the chamber of commerce, the arabs living in Warner Robins GA are always being watched, because of the military base that's centered in the community.
Most of the time it's through surveillance such as checking up on their businesses via stopping in, and by way of cameras, by way of Robins AFB.
According the reserve Lt officer who works for Houston county, this place centered on Robins AFB is oufitted with lots of monitors to watch not only the base, but hot spots around the city as well as other areas around the country and around the world.
The arab community in Warner Robins GA have no idea how much they are being watched by this community. They also have no idea how much people in the community don't want them there at all.
Warner Robins GA is a very diverse community, filled with people from all sorts of backgrounds. They live and thrive in this community daily. On the other hand you have people who have grown up in the community and those folks are set in their ways and don't really care to socialize with other cultures, especially with the arab sub community.
As we move on, from this town and on to the next, Warner Robins will always be a town that's talked about due to Robins AFB being at the forefront. It will always be a town that will watch the arab community more than the white, black, and asian communities. It will always be a southern community like no other that's filled with dark racism, low blow political bedroom antics, surveillance of the arab sub community and the home of Robins AFB.
