Similar to the Irish who lead the draft riots during the civil war which was really a race riot, burning and killing Blacks and Jews.
This city is a successful enterprise of immigrant absorption, and none of the conditions you describe are new to the New York experience. Your arguing to close immigration. I'm not in favor of that. I'm in favor of better funded local education, especially advanced education, for those who live here, without regard of their nation of origin.
