In all honestly it's likely not a issue of common day African immigrants that come to this country as they aren't likely to get a visa unless they can provide something in return. This usually means they are coming here to go to school or are already educated. Meaning what they give in return is being a productive member of society.

The problem is the self entitled hood rats that are from the US that seem to think everyone owes them something and they shouldn't have to work hard for anything. It's not just hood rats but also all the other worthless scum that always want hand outs but never wanna lift a finger to try and better their selves.

I'd trade 10 useless fucks that were born here and will never strive to do anything with their life for 1 immigrant that is coming here to do something with his life. I don't care what color or race they are.. just so long as they want to do something with their life and are willing to work for it.
