..."politically correct sensibilities".
Do you mean self-censorship of the whole society coupled with exceptionalism practiced by a particular group in that society, or do you mean extending the same civil rights and social respect to everyone regardless of race, gender, creed, color, or national origin? I would add "sexual orientation" to the list, but there's been enough arguing about that already this week.
You see, whenever you talk about "taking advantage of 'politically correct sensibilities'" in regard to immigrants, as I read further, I come to understand that you mean "civil equality" for immigrants, as if that's a bad thing. You make it sound as if a tiered system of civil rights is the answer to keeping a free society free, and it's not. We can't absorb a population that's kept on the fringe, and the problem becomes even more intractable because the fringe is where their own extremists like to be.
Of course some people take things to extremes. We don't have to take things to the opposite extreme as the remedy. That only works with acids and bases. In humans, the opposite of extreme is moderate.
