An ugly reality by Thomas Sowell
Learning from the mistakes of others...
Thomas Sowell writes about immigration:
"Europe has already been through this 'guest worker' policy that we are being urged to follow. They have learned the hard way what it means to have a growing foreign population in their midst -- a population that insists on remaining foreign and hostile to the culture, values and people around them.
Some European countries have learned this lesson at the cost of riots and bloodshed in the streets and lives lost in terrorist attacks. Others have only had to contend with national polarization -- thus far -- but polarization is not a small thing.
In this country, however, there are still people who refuse to learn any lesson at all."
