yeah, WHITE immgrants you moron.

People looking to make a better life for themselves or running away form a shity place. Same reasons different times.

The issue is that those places are being made shitty by foreign policy now more than ever before. There's such a thing as too many too quickly. And also, maybe we should stop chasing them out of their homes. It's the same fiat system that breaks our money behind the need to plunder foreign resources in order to service the endlessly compounding debt. ICE probably isn't the right approach to address it. But not addressing it at all certainly isn't either.

Italians helped too. Pretty sure a lot of industry wasn't happening without a lot of black labor either. Heck the whole state of Texas immigrated, land and all 😂. From Mexico. We had a fair few Chinese guys too, something about creating the railroad that gave access to the west without involving dysentery and cholera on the Oregon Trail. The pace, not the race, is what is wrong with the current immigration. Values are not being adopted, and culture is not being assimilated. When you go to someone's home and interact with them with reciprocity, you're a guest. When you just pour in and use their resources and do not, you're an invader. And even if you're WILLING to help, if the homeowner is not able to find ways for you to pull your weight, you're still an invader.
