Integration

          I read the news about riot in Paris. I understand there are frustrations about the ways European countries dealing with Muslim immigrations. Yes, the governments and main steam are responsible to this alination. I hope this riot would make them seriously look at the problem and try to find out a long term solutions which will benefit all parties.

          However, let's put this factor aside, I am just wondering why nobody or organization came out speaking loudly that there are jobs that those Muslim immigrations including their European born children need to do. Yes, there still exists non equality, discrimination. But as a citizen or a member of civilized society, we should solve problems and confrontation by open talk, by discussion, by negotition, by improving awareness. We should not consult violent to slove the problem. There are other minority or immigrations from other countries, why these groups of people can coupe with the new adopted countries? I think the leaders, politicians and media should find out why.

          Second thing I don't understand is if these groups of people are not satisfied with the adopted countries, they can always go back to where they were from. When they made up their minds moving to a different countries, they should know that those countries have different culture and landscape. Live in Rome, do what Roman do. Learning the new language and adopting the new culture should be those immigrations priority. There is no reason for those new settlers to ask the people who lived there for hundreds of years to change in order for their convenient. If new settlers do want the local to change, they'd better show the local what their new culture would contribute to the society. This is the same problem America faces now. If new settlers don't want to learn English, and want American society to bend to their needs under so called "non discrimination" cover, I don't think it is fair to the people who adopted this country long time ago and those who are willing to integrate.

          My point is "Let's be civilized. Let's think how can we fit in first. Then let's talk about how can we stand out."
