assimilation is civic, cultural, and economic. Latino/Hispanic immigrant demographics have the highest rates of failing both economically and civically. muslim refugees fail to assimilate civically and culturally- most resent america for bombing them out of their homelands under bush/obama admin. islam is openly against liberty. give their nations a moratorium of immigration.

It has been often likely to compromise the interests of our own country in favor of another. The permanent effect of such a policy will be, that in times of great public danger there will be always a numerous body of men, of whom there may be just grounds of distrust; the suspicion alone will weaken the strength of the nation, but their force may be actually employed in assisting an invader.”
