We were on the wrong side of history ( or humanity) many times with immigrants, have we learned nothing? Lastly, although Hawaii will probably see no middle eastern immigrants any time soon, these are some of the best educated refugees and we should welcome industrious doctors, engineers, accountants, programmers to our shores...
Thats it make your little funny...

We have always (maybe not a long time ago mid 1800s) brought in immigrants, mainly to do the ground work that built this country, but that was the way into many if not all growing nation states since the beginning of nation building the world over. Yes, and not well treated or respected, but they continued to come as did my forebears in the late 1800s. No we're not perfect, but that was the times and attitudes. Some things change some don't.

Those kind enter via the H1B visa system and have been doing so for a long time.
I've put in a lot of years (40+) in Mechanical Engineering and Design and can attest to the fact that we have, (especially the last 15yrs+) overwhelmingly been hiring almost all who have applied from outside our borders, namely outsourced and many times to the detriment of our citizens (primarily new grads BS an above.
As an aside many, many on the mainland oppose only the illegals that are just that illegally here.
They have been always been received openly, as long as they did it the right way the correct way, the legal way.
Come here (outskirts of Chicago) and live amongst these idiots and then tell me something.
Between them and the Blacks that seem to be trying to do population control through the end of a gun the city is gone, except for small enclaves of Yuppie Gentrification.
I've watched the place for 60+ years (72 yrs) raised on the Near West Side, attended Crain Tech HS, IIT. I know that city like the back of my hand. Know of what you speak
Talk of which you actually are aware of and studied, don't use hearsay.
