Also, they don't understand centuries old animosities between "tribes", which are still deeply rooted in Europe. European countries still hold on to their old roots and that's why they are not too friendly toward immigrants. It will take some time. It wasn't too rosy for first immigrants from "undesirable" countries from Europe in the past (Italy, Poland, Ireland), but it changed. It is Mexico now, who saturated the country and is frown upon.
Instead of "nasty neighboring country's" invading, USA's had the neighbors living side by side. When you look at the history this has not always been easy. USA still hold onto their own roots also where we differ is how we view immigrants, many have been in their shoes and can relate.
Now Mexico, we are beefing up the boarder like never before. This was mostly due to them cleaning out the prison system on USA. When they send their serial killers, child molestors and the like here vs. feed them, it's time to cover the side line.
