I agree. And I think the push for remigration is not because people inherently want them out, as much as we simply can't handle that influx of people properly, and we risk creating ghettos and parallel societies that can't live with the domestic society. Also, a lot of those people simply refuse to integrate and some said in interviews that they head we will just give them everything and they can live in our countries same as they did at their home, in terms of culture. This is a false narrative that was fed to people.

We need to set boundaries and enforce them, and the entire topic is created because we didn't have boundaries upfront and we are still not enforcing them as we should. We can set up strict integration requirements, and send back everyone who refuses or is unable to meet them. This is fair and would quickly filter out the bad apples as they would be first to refuse.

In the end, people want to know they are safe if they walk outside at night, and this was not the case in many places since 2015.
