Take this from a Yank.
The United States is the “great melting pot” and has been since the first colonies were formed. The nation and its people have seen every type of disagreement possible over emigration. It was founded, mostly, due to religious persecution within England. However, that persecution continued, here, until Lord Baltimore made the move to create a state that accepted every religion, and that was Maryland.
Stating the above, we've seen all the pros and cons of emigration, and if they're mentioned today, a small minority tries to label what's said as racism or some other “ism.” We've seen the crime increase several times with each wave of immigrants, and it was crimes that were unknown of before they arrived. We've also witnessed those who refuse to assimilate since the nation was founded from the original colonies, and we know what activities and actions they will perform to keep from assimilating and obeying the law. In other words, what we're seeing, today, in the US, is nothing new.
What I can say to my British cousins is, learn from us. Do not allow yourselves to be run roughshod over by a minority. Stand up, point out the problems, and speak the truth without fear.
