    I've made that concern clear but that's not my only concern.
    Your concern is that you have not been as successful in life as you thought you'd be and you're blaming people who don't look like you.

    Should be noted it's actually 5.5%... but close enough.

    EDIT: it's actually not an accurate figure anyways, because it says "Children with at least one unauthorized immigrant parent", which means that some of them had at least 1 authorized parent, and that makes them non-anchor-babies.

    Your concern is largely political, immigration (at least legal) is an economic decision/concern.

    I would argue that what's basically wrong with your stance is that it's largely based on ignorance. You want to apply tests you're not familiar with that no other country applies (and rightly so), then when you do bring up other countries, you're not aware of their immigration laws. On top of that, you display unabashed prejudices about immigrants in general, which is itself a display of ignorance.

    I don't mean this as a personal attack, but more of an enticement to better inform yourself (or not, you're certainly en led to to keep politics superficial). That said, it's difficult to have a conversation with any kind of depth when people don't take the time to inform themselves.
    I have multiple concerns.

    Iq tests correlate to success and crime rates. Studies show a great deal of iq is heritable. I don't care if other countries don't do it.

    What prejudice have I shown towards immigrants?

    IQ tests provide results in bands. Low, Normal, High. ie: a 10 point swing is negligible. Plus, again, it's not a barometer, people don't sponsor immigrants (solely) because they're smart, but because they can do a job. If the job require smarts, then they'll look for that, but it's simply not the determining factor.

    About prejudice, here's at least one, and a post that pretty much sums up what your feelings are on the matter, IMVHO:

    Of course very little will be done. Most the anchor babies will eventually vote for the free party. Europe doesn't have anchor babies. That's the lefts blueprint yet for some reason they have yet to suggest coping that.

    Really the US should split in two now. Half country can flood their country via open borders. That same half can attempt to provide everything to all those people. The other half can go in a better direction.

    Am I worried about undo ented people and potential threats to my immediate domain here in Texas? Of course, and only and idiot would not be. Possible ISIS, human traffickers, murderers fleeing conviction, and God knows what else. At best an unskilled worker and net drain to the economy. When one of these assholes kills one of your loved ones on the highway, I'm sure you will be thankful you weren't worried about it.

    Your fears about ISIS, crime and criminals show your gullibility. These people are fleeing crime and criminals. The statistics for the correlation of immigration status and crime are unambiguous: illegal immigrants are far less likely to commit crimes than your fellow Texans.

    The studies about whether illegal immigrants are a net plus or a net negative to the economy are mixed:there's a pretty good rundown of the relevant studies in the TPPF paper I posted upstream.

    For the same reason California is a bottom 3 iq state. Until that is proven temporary the US is on a likely detrimental long-term track.

    Just because European immigrants turned out great doesn't mean immigrants from everywhere will be. Hillary for example wanted to flood our country with 500k refugees from countries with the highest proportion of inbreds in the world.
    This is possibly the lowest IQ argument ever.

    What does IQ measure Nathan? You think this is like a frkn blood test for O2 levels. You have no clue concerning measurement.

    What does this test measure?

    The Mayor of Tijuana, Mexico, just stated that “the City is ill-prepared to handle this many migrants, the backlog could last 6 months.” Likewise, the U.S. is ill-prepared for this invasion, and will not stand for it. They are causing crime and big problems in Mexico. Go home!

    DJT sent 5,900 US troops to secure 1900 miles of border with 22 miles of razor wire.

    ROE forbid them from coming into contact with border crossers except to render assistance.

    It's DHS that is skimpy on the details.
