"Give Me Your Tired, Your Poor..."
Unless they want to blow us the hell up. Robert Spencer of Jihadwatch has a good point:

...The U.S. also could, and should, institute restrictions on immigration from Muslim countries, as I called for in Onward Muslim Soldiers in 2003. This issue has been clouded by national traumas about "racism," but in fact it has nothing to do with racism, as jihadists with blonde hair and blue eyes are just as lethal, and should be just as unwelcome, as jihadists with dark skin, this is about taking prudent steps to protect ourselves and defend our nation. It is only a matter of common sense to recognize where the great majority of jihadists come from, and acting accordingly.

Officials should proclaim a moratorium on all visa applications from Muslim countries, since there is no reliable way for American authorities to distinguish jihadists and potential jihadists from peaceful Muslims. Because this is not a racial issue, these restrictions should not apply to Christians and other non-Muslim citizens of those countries. Those who claim that such a measure is "Islamophobic" should be prepared to provide a workable way for immigration officials to distinguish jihadists from peaceful Muslims, or, if they cannot do so, should not impede basic steps the U.S. should take to protect itself. And Muslims entering from anywhere -- Britain, France -- should be questioned as to their adherence to Sharia and Islamic supremacism. This is not because anyone will expect honest answers, but so that answers proven false by the applicant's subsequent activity can become grounds for deportation.

Furthermore, on immigration in general, the quote in the title is from a poem by Emma Lazarus on the Statue of Liberty. I think it was fine back when it was written, but our country is no longer the empty land it was. In fact, we're full up. If you want to come here, unless you're seeking asylum from some political horror, you'd better have an advanced skill set we need. Or rather, that's how it should be. And violators of our immigration policy should not be rewarded with amnnesty or citizenship. And that includes babies born of violations of our immigration policy.
