re: Why are you where you are on immigration

Personally, I don't really agree with that characterization. Although certainly a portion absolutely are racist, I think the left underplays other factors. What I'm asking for you is why, in your own words, your position on immigration is where it is. I'm not here to judge you, and there's no "gotcha" coming. I'm just curious and it occurred to me i don't think I've ever flat out asked.

Each nation has its own history and culture. We have one here in America. It's a Judeo-Christian one.
We formed a nation and have laws and a constitution to govern that nation.
We allowed immigrants to come to America because the land was vast and in many areas, untammmed. But the immigration was controlled, and those coming in came here with the understanding that they would embrace America's values and culture.
We don't have that anymore. We basically have open borders, bad vetting and no expectations for those coming here to assimilate.
We've already seen a major erosion of what made America great to begin with, and will soon be a country without an identity if we continue our current immigration policy or lack there of.
