Dear Mr. Pipes

I have never understood this.

Whenever Europeans colonized and settled in foreign territories they never ever accepted or assimilated to the country.

I remember there used to be signs in pre-1947 British-infested territories in India "Dogs and Indians are not allowed."

So whenever the foreigners want to come and live in the West why there is so much identity crisis in the West ?

So why this double standard ?
