United States now has more Spanish speakers than Spain – only Mexico has more

To the US? No, the peak immigration to the US from non-English speaking backgrounds was probably in the 1890s to 1910 CE or so. We had massive immigration, due to various factors. We coped, the public schools in the big cities in the Northeast - where the population tended to come in - did yeoman duty in helping to teach & acculturate the children, & there was also adult education - mostly language lessons, as I recall.
As it is today.
Before we had a policy of Assimilation.
Today we have a policy of celebrating "diversity".
Today is very different.
Immigrants today assimilate just as those who came before them did, culturally, economically, and linguistically.
Tell the dead in Boston about how well immigrants are assimilating.
That is an inductive fallacy and an appeal to emotion. A clumsy one at that.
A student of mine (gasp! an immigrant!) a few years ago relied on a prosthetic device. Fortunately, a company that makes such devices provided her with one of these very expensive items for free. Why? Because someone heard about the circumstances by which she came to need the device and advocated with the company on her behalf. The student and her benefactor remain in contact to this day. Who was this kind benefactor you say? A brave and compassionate woman who lost her legs in the Boston Marathon bombing. What she didn't lose, to say the least, was her humanity. Who the fuck are you to use her experience for hateful, illogical spite where she used it to do good?
In case you were wondering, the student is a very bright young person of excellent character who graduated from high school with excellent marks and is now attending college here in the US, with a very bright future no doubt. Successfully assimilated linguistically, educationally, economically, and culturally.
Stick that in your pipe and smoke it before pulling another fallacy.
None of that changes that fact that those bombers were second gen immigrants and killed and maimed a lot of Americans.
......
That's assume that the immigrants are basically the same and the nation is basically the same........
In the ways that matter, they are.
Our nation used to demand assimilation. NOw we celebrate diversity.
Right there, we can't assume that the past will repeat.
So have native gringos...As it is today.

The fact that we have problems is a reason to import more of them?
I respectfully disagree.

My conclusion is that poorly assimilated immigrants are a problem.
I presented historical evidence to support this.

No, no they're not. Not at the same rate or percentage, and there's many just squatting and sucking up social services.

No, no they're not. ....
They certainly are. If anything, they are assimilating more quickly and completely than those who came before.
Today’s immigrants assimilate faster than the Europeans who came before them
