US immigration laws have become so lax in the past 30 years that the gates have been open without much scrutiny over who visits and who stays. If you read the immigration law and policy, there are certain standards for permitting people to immigrate.

In part, admittance is based on quality standards, and in part on hardship and circumstances.

A modern immigration policy would recognize the following factors:

The USA has a certain limited capacity to support immigration. (The capacity varies over time based on economic needs and population size and demographics.)

The USA should have a policy defining the ideal ratio of population size and demographics to national resources including but not limited to capital, clean air and water, energy and other materials including infrastructure.

The USA immigration policy would track US competitiveness to determine the need for people with certain skill, knowledge, and experience.

The USA immigration policy would factor the legacy and backlog of the current illegal population and specify time corrective action: expeditious processing 1) to accept or 2) reject for deportation.

What is the current law and policy and how does it address these requirements? Get cracking Mr. President and Congress, this is a high priority for your immediate attention.

Now, as for the question, the meaning of “home grown” terrorists? People from Islamic heritage should be scrutinized, not to pick on Muslims, but to address the statistical and historical fact that Muslim nations are the primary source of terrorism confronting the USA today. The Muslim religion has characteristics that are uniquely bent toward advocating religious control over government. That is counter to the beliefs of the USA. Therefore, on that basis, Muslims should be treated differently with regard to how they are processed for admittance as visitors or for immigration.

In the story below, two men are Americans of foreign heritage, one Moroccan and the other an Algerian. What were the circumstances that led to their citizenship? Was the process of admittance faulty? Before we call them “home grown,” let’s understand the facts. Just because they are living here now, may not imply there being “home grown,” though they may have developed their corruption to an actionable state while living here. What is the source of their corrupted and illegal behavior as terrorists?
