Stop being so silly. You define assimilation around food items when to us Americans, it's about belief in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Not eating tacos as you dumb the debate down to. America is an idea that we're the best with the least government. Immigrants have to believe that to assimilate.

Islam doesn't teach honesty IMO, it teaches strict adherence to the koran, but they will lie/cheat/steal around any caveats they think exist. It's why they rape little boys (for example) and non-Muslim women. Muhammad says not to have sex with Muslim women you're not married to - so everything else is fair game.
If you're concerned with honesty, though, you should oppose law (lawyering) supplanting moral norms. As we become a more atheist society, what is "not illegal" becomes moral.

Yep. I've been to several countries in the middle east + Turkey and it's all the same.

That's the same tired argument the protestant establishment used during the potato famine to argue against the irish immigrating.
And the jews in the 30's.
And the Italians in the 1900's.
The fact is all of these folks have immigrated into our society and made it stronger.
Here's a little secret - most of those immigrants went back.
Ireland has 30% less people right now than it did in 1840.

People pushing "diversity" for diversity sake lead miserable lives. They hate the fact that Joe American is happy in his christian neighborhood, driving his truck, hunting his deer, raising his kids under one roof. They loathe that, because their lives suck in whatever crowded city they live in with their crappy job. So of course, they push "diversity" so that Joe christian hunter's life becomes just as miserable. You think people of greater Minneapolis are happier today than they were in 1990? No chance.

They're liars and won't engage in honest debate about what they want out of diversity. They're self loathing and too stupid to see the backlash they're creating as people are passed over for jobs because they're a white male.

Here's a little secret - most of those immigrants went back. Only the ones who wanted to be here and succeeded here stayed. You can have more open immigration with a need for unskilled labor and a lack of a welfare state - neither are true today. Also, all those groups shared Christianity and western principles, allowing them to integrate (which still was not easy).
You deviate from my point, though. All peaceful, high-functioning societies share culture and have higher IQ. Below IQ 90, democracy cannot function. What do you think average IQ in Syria is?
If more than 1% went back, I’d be shocked. You’re suggesting that 51%, minimum did? Where do you get that?
