I’m talking about immigration as a haystack, but you seem to think that we can know in advance who the needles are.
Are you under the impression that we can tell barbarians apart from other immigrants and that we still let them in the country?
It sounds like you are listening to propaganda media and have no idea what is actually happening with immigration dynamics right now.
The barbarians are all religious. The only way to reduce the chance of terrorism to near zero is to either stop all immigration or to stop immigration of religious people. We don’t, because this country was founded by religious zealots and because we value freedom.
Do I not have the freedom of choice of not wanting people who will murder over something like that in the same country as myself?

I never said I'm anti-immigration. I'm an immigrant mysely, soon to be a naturalized citizen of my host country after years of hard work at embracing its culture and traditions as much as I can.
I am, however, anti-immigration if the kind of people we're talking about are the types of people that go around beheading people, regardless of their reasoning.
