Immigrants are not a good thing at all, even the legal ones. I may be being racist here, but what I'm saying is true, before they came to this country, it was a better place, with less shootings, stabbings, violence etc.
I don't like the word racist, in my opinion a racist is someone who actively tries to make people of other races' lives worse. People who have views against certain aspects of race sensitive issues such as immigration isn't racist.
I don't think you can generalise like that. My dad was in immigrant and he is a doctor. If you go to any hospital, I guarentee that you will find at least 40% of the doctors are Indian. At the eye departmant where my dad works there are no English doctors (and as a side note, there are around 50 Indian families in Wrexham, and I think they all have a doctor as the breadwinner). You can hardly say that someone who works every day to save people's lives and in addition pays a large amount in taxes is a bad thing to society.
Yes, it is true that in past years there has been an increase in violence, and it is also true that in the past years there has been in increase in immigrants.
However, I don't think that the two are linked. Just look at society as a whole, TV is getting more violent, video games are getting more violent, music is promoting violence. Furthermore, a lot of British born people who's parents are immigrants get a hard time from people of British decent, this aggrevates them and makes them resent society.
And I think that "newspapers" like
The Sun promote anti race views like this. Claiming that immigrants steal jobs, which is a load of rubbish. In the short term, it may be true that an immigrant gets a job over a native. However, in most cases, the immigrant was probably more suited to the job.
In the long run, immigrants create more jobs, think about it.
More people = more people buying stuff = more stuff needed to sell = more jobs to make and sell the stuff.
I think that the kind of people who complain that Immigrants steal jobs are just trying to find excuses for that fact that they didn't put any effort in the early part of their life and are now underqualified.
