The issue is not “immigration” it is “assimilation”. Look, GOP, if I wanted to live in Mexico or some *stan, I would move there. When too many immigrants from another culture come here and settle in one area, they tend to reconstitute their own culture rather than assimilating. This seem especially true with Muslims. If I am wrong, then please someone, speak up.

If someone wants to move here, my main concern then stems from some groups giving the appearance that they want to seize part of the US and make it their own little island of culture. I only have to look at “The Race” (la Raza) for a prime example. If you want to live in Mexico, don’t move here and try to recreate Mexico here, and especially don’t demand that I pay for it.

I grew up in NYC in the 1930's. There were Italian areas also Irish, German, Chinese, Black, Jewish, Polish. Towns had an Irish Church along with an Italian, and maybe Polish. There was no assimilation until they had children. Their children married each other [one man, one woman in those days]. BTW the public school helped because only English was taught.
