It would seem so far, the US has a fairly integrated Muslim population compared to many other countries, but that too may change. I'm not religious person but I will say the one thing the Irish, Germans, Italians, etc all had in common was they tended to have come from a judeo christian cultural under pinning. That may have been the one primary factor that allowed them all to sorta kinda get along and integrate.
    One thing that was significantly different was that there weren't as many hand-outs to be gotten by those who immigrated here in the late 19th and early 20th Century. Being hungry will make you assimilate to some degree because you are forced to work to eat.
    I would guess at this point you can control this one of two ways.
    You can slow immigration to the point where you are very selective in who you allow to immigrate. Essentially shutting down the "refugee" option and refuse entry to them.
    You can shut the system totally until we come up with an answer to assimilation. We've done that before and it has worked.

    I'm not sure what to think about Britain's reaction to Manchester.
    I would like to see them rise up and retake their government and their homeland.

    I know this is perception only, but honest to God it feels like we are more upset and outraged than they are. Where's the outage? Flowers left at the scene, candlelight vigils or what ever nonsense is of no value here. Bury your dead, morn, then unleash the dogs of war like the hammer of Thor. No disrespect intended to UK members here but from my POV it just does not seem like this event woke anyone up over there. On another forum not as full of switched on types as this, and a similar comment I made got a response about the war zone we are in in the US (making reference to the 8 people killed recently) and I should mind my own f-ing biz and all that. Is the UK lost? Even my outreach to my Brit friends didn't give me much of a sense of it.

    Seeing that tweet I posted back a page made my hair stand on end.

    I think what we are seeing is a generational change in attitudes Britain isn't what is was in 1934 and it wont ever be again, politically they've slipped further and further toward socialism. If all you know is an ever softening system slowly moving toward a socialist progressive Utopia and you call it home, you'll defend it, well, at least verbally.
    I had a friend who's Father used to visit from Sheffield ever year on vacation. He loved to visit, we would go shooting and he would remark about the changing firearms Laws in Britain. Well his kids didn't know the difference, they grew up without a Second Amendment or legal firearms being available, so really they didn't care.
    Unfortunately he got cancer and was forced to really on a system of socialized medicine and well the system moved so slow that it killed him. Now his kids understand why socialized medicine sucks and why it wont work here in America.
    They will defend what they know because it is what they know as being right. They will defend it until it comes around and kills them.
    Sad but true, it's the nature of man,.

    A sad, concise, but generally accurate assessment I'd say.

    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
