The ultimate rights are property rights, to the security of ourselves and our stuff. The right to be permanently separated from the riff-raff by appealing to the government is not one of those. Neighborhoods change. My boyhood home was in a basically peaceful majority caucasian neighborhood with some hispanics. My folks remain 30 years later in a basically peaceful majority hispanic neighborhood with some caucasian families. I strongly support this new group of homeowners. I further strongly support the right of those complaining to buy a house anywhere else that they please.

But don't we have a right to expect that zonig ordinances will be enforced when we buy a home? Can I buy a house next to yours and set up an auto salvage operation in my yard?

You're living in a fools' paradise. The logical progression is that no one who wants high standards of living will be permitted to live in a house for more than a few years. That's idiotic. We should let them impose the values of their country (consider: how did it get so messed up that they wanted to move here in the first place?) on the rest of us? I think not.
