I agree with you. I'd rather have 1000 Mexicans than 1 Muslim, for precisely the reasons you've outlined. And a glance at some of the horrific stories (links available upon request) coming out of Holland, Norway, France, and lately , Australia, supports our point of view, IMHHO.

I'd rather slow it all down. We cannot practically accept everyone that wishes to come here

Never lived in a Mexican neighborhood (although we have a few here as well, including a guy who flys the Mexican flag from his fire escape. I have lived in an area filled with lower-middle class COLOMBIAN immigrants however and couldn't have asked for better neighbors. Then again, hablo y entiendo español (their kids preferred "street" English, however).
