Obviously he means the American culture and by our he means Americans. There's no denying that if immigration is high enough, and assimilation poor enough, culture will change very quickly. Not saying its the case in the US but it's simple to understand what he meant.

I've never understood this argument. How long does a territory need to be occupied for before the natives of that area can call it "their country."
Every country has a starting point, the USA's is just more recent.

That's true globally but many countries have birth rates below replacement levels. A declining population can cause problems just as an increasing one can.

I don't think men were picky enough to care if woman had those traits or not.

Everyone in the world wants a better life. The reason for stopping it is the same reason all countries south of the US also have immigration laws.

The majority of terrorists/murders/rapists/etc in nearly every country will be whatever is the largest demographic. That's not surprising.

The US was drastically less racially diverse 50 years ago. It was 90% non hispanic white in 1965 before immigration laws were changed.

I'm not even the same person as OP so your last sentence doesn't make any sense. I was only pointing out that white supremacist gangs forming in the US has nothing to do with Norway. I also don't think white gangs are only in reaction to other gangs and I also don't think black gangs can all be simply labeled as "bad" or that white gangs are "good."

There's less reason for racist white gangs to form in Norway when the country is largely homogeneous.

If you define rich as the top 1% than yes it might be from inheritance but studies I've seen say over 80% of millionaires are self-made and didn't grow up wealthy.
Your whole premise is contradicted by the study.
