It is human nature to view a new group of immigrants negatively because they might have different custom and languages. Eastern European, Russian, Polish, Italian and German came thru Ellis Island. Americans were afraid they not integrate in the melting pot, but they did.
The Irish and Chinese who came to build the railroads in California were discramated, too. The Chinese had to stay months on Angel Island before they are allow entrance. Americans were afraud they might not integrate in the melting pot, but they did.

If you say so, not like me to break tradition
But it's not about immigration, it's really about colonization, home security, and citizenship issue all rolled into one!
If keeping the Mexican border where it is for white, black, chicano, japanese and anyone else that wants the same thing, You can call me the biggest immigrant basher of all time!!!

Not all Americans. But stereotyping an entire culture is a bad habit that is apparently world wide.
