The unfortunate true is too many people immigrant here not to assimilate and it was assimilation that made this nation great. What does their refusal to learn the language really say and if they refuse our language what else about our nation will they refuse. assimilation is essential for all the obvious reasons
It also unfortunate too that many people born in the USA cannot comprehend that despite its flaws this nation is the best human civilization ever created. Instead like an army of Colin Kapernick's they so utter disregard and disrespect for this nation and its people. and so sow the seeds of this nation's destruction

You can add my wife to that number as well.
Isn't this why we are called the great melting pot? All of these various cultures come here and become a mixture of them all, not a hundred different cultures. Not a thousand different languages.
Now that's not to say that people can't be proud of and celebrate their heritage. There's nothing wrong with Italian American festivals or African American celebrations. Demonstrating all of the various cultures that are what the U.S. is made of is interesting and informative and allows people to hang on to a bit of their past, But we should never forget that we are a people that are bonded by common ideals, a common culture that is a blend of many cultures melted and mixed together with common goals and a common language.
People that come here and insist on keeping 100% of their culture and language are not interested in becoming Americans. We need to unite as a people not emphasize what divides us.
