As I said in another post, some immigrant traditions, customs, values are good. Work ethic, respect for education, etc.

Some are just interesting and enriching - new foods, etc. - the new becomes eventually as American as pizza and tacos and ramen noodles. Knights of Columbus, Cajun food, Pa Dutch - all good things.

Nevertheless all cultural trappings aren't equally beneficial. Some are bad. Honor killings, jihad, polygamy, teaching children to shout "death to Rushdie" (like a Muslim school on Hillcroft in Houston did in 2001) are not good cultural trappings. We don't want them.
