>>My scenario proofs nothing or give fina explanation - it's just to give you an alternate POV.

Likewise. A scenario was presented, you present an alternative. My POV is that neither deserves to be accepted uncritically.

>>Vietnames tabacoo smugglers you mean? Methamphetamine dealing on bohemian border? That's what you mean with blending in? This is laughable. I know enough hard working vietnames as arabs or turks over here. Or parasitc germans in second generation, for that. Don't ask for there exceptional skills in german. You just pick examples to prove your POV and let any other argument go.

I haven't expressed a POV, but now I will: all over the world, the figures show that Vietnamese refugees tend to assimilate well. Google "Vietnamese refugee assimilate" to confirm. Why? A common explanation is that the first generation has little English (or Belgian) so it takes on menial jobs or starts a small business. Second or third generation goes to university. Is that not a model to be encouraged? Meanwhile you cannot hope to scold me for picking examples to prove what you claim is my POV when you choose a tobacco smuggler. ;-)

>>Are you unable or unwilling? Might it be slightly possible to have an argument? The way you possibly have learned? In taken the other sides argument and not just bashing around?

Why such a reaction? POVs are expressed by others: my only response is not to accept either version uncritically, which I say is a definition of prejudice.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
