The Vietnamese immigrants came here as refugees in order to avoid being murdered after N. Vietnam conquered their homeland.
Another issue is that they came here legally. Nobody is complaining about legal immigrants from Mexico - just the illegal ones. (Who would be more accurately described as 'economic migrants' than 'immigrants.')

The answer is that the vietnamese immigrants are not coming into the US in the numbers as the ones from Mexico. The US population is expected to skyrocket in the next 50 years because of immigration from the south, not the west.

I doubt that there are 12-25 million illegals from Vietnam, and press 3 for Vietnamese is not on the menu

In addition to the fact that the Viets are here legallly, you should realize that the US was at war not against all Vietnamese but only the Communist Vietnamese. The Viets who came here were allied with the US one way or another and endured revenge from the Communists after 1975.

Coz the US lost in the Vietnam War and they felt sorry for the rest of the population who has to live under the communist hell-hole. So they allowed many citizens from the former South Vietnam to migrate to US.

When I see the Vietnamese burning my flag and I have to hear press 1 for Vietnamese,
When I see the Vietnamese marching in my streets for rights they don't have because they are in this country illegally.
Then I will worry about them- in the mean time the people who demonstrate the worst behavior are the ones getting the most attention.

Probably because they're not here illegally like so many of the Latinos you speak of. Also they're not expecting everybody to take care of them and all the children they have. In fact most of the Vietnamese work hard to learn the English language something I can't say for most illegal Latinos that are here in Texas!

The Vietnamese in the US came because they were suckered by the US during the war, and had to flee when the US decided to bail.

Immigration is a turning out to be political concern in Europe. Germany has thousands and thousands of immigrants that got here from many countries extremely Turkey, Poland, and Greece, who're no longer seen German. See, you will possibly no longer comprehend, yet German is an ethnic team, who share the comparable subculture, language, historic previous, and genetics. those different ethnic communities do no longer share those comparable connections and are not German ethnically, yet German electorate. i could flow to Germany after being an American all my existence and alter right into a German citizen in simple terms the comparable. yet another concern is xenophobia is on the upward push in Germany. human beings do no longer purely like the thought individuals from different ethnic backgrounds and countries are coming to prosperous Germany and taking great thing approximately Germany's great prosperous welfare gadget(socialism). many cases the immigrants are from poor backgrounds and seek for government monetary help that comes right now from taxes from the German human beings. this might piss me off, to no longer point out the thought my u . s . a . is being invaded through those that have no appreciate for me and my human beings (frequently speaking). for individuals that dislike Klose and Podolski, they do no longer seem to be Polish, they are German. They have been born in Silesia, a area that's German, yet now governed through Poland after WW2. Silesia was an element of Germany, so as that they seem to be a German minority team in Poland regardless of what human beings declare Silesia to be.
