No way.....don't believe it. Are you saying that they aren't assimilating into the local culture? Cuomo would've never let that happen. Fake News -- They are just like the Irish and Italian immigration into New York -- just hard working folks who don't want to cut off anyone's head.

Well...the Gambino family and Winter Hill gang may give you a little push back there.

You know who is missing from this discussion? BlueDevilTide. He is/was a muslim. We need him to come back and provide us with his point of view. That is, if he hasn't gone back overseas to fight with ISIS.
TBH it would probably be very frustrating to be a Muslim on this board. I say that as a Christian. Who knows, maybe the place would have a different feel with a few Muslim voices. I'd certainly welcome the perspective.
 
The subtle nuances of the word "some" continue to elude many.

As does the nuance that there is a throughput component to cultural assimilation without causing cultural and political chaos.

The US can accept some immigrants from muslim countries as long as they assimilate to their new adopted country (and as long as assimilation is a stated goal consciously embraced by the immigrants). But assimilation is not automatic, and it takes time (as in potentially multiple generations). Try too many, too fast, and problems will ensue.
And as a citizen of the United States, I expect that the general government will screen prospective immigrants to determine how they will make these Unites States better by their admission.

That's a blast from the past right there. Didn't he melt down over the 2008 presidential election?
