Opposition to immigration exists in all states with immigration, has become a significant political issue in many countries. Immigration in the modern sense refers to movement of people from one state or territory to another state or territory where they are not citizens. Illegal immigration is immigration in contravention of a state's immigration laws. Opposition to immigration ranges from calls for various immigration reforms to proposals to restrict immigration to one's nation; some critics of immigration argue that the presence of immigrants may distort the national identity of the native population. That means that the native population opposes immigration because they fear they may lose their sense of belonging to their own nation, as represented by distinctive traditions, culture and politics. National identity can be an important factor for social peace in cases where there are intra-national divides. For example, a 2015 study showed that the educational content of Suharto's Indonesia emphasizing the national unity of Indonesia was an important cause of improved inter-ethnic and inter-religious relationships.

Immigrants may isolate themselves in their own communities, forming self-organized communities, ghettos or parallel societies where they live according to their own culture, rather than assimilating to the native culture with a reduced or minimal spatial and cultural contact with the majority society into which they have immigrated. Such ethnic enclaves can be the result of humans liking to be around people like themselves, they might not learn the local language and might undermine the national unity, as well as the cultural and religious unity of the native country. Research by Jennifer Neal of Michigan State University suggests that ethnic enclaves promote social cohesion at the cost of decreasing tolerance between groups and that their size and proximity are factors; some suggest to devolve more power to local communities. Immigration may adversely affect political stability. Economic arguments concentrate on competition for employment, the higher burdens that some groups of immigrants may impose on social welfare systems, health systems and public schools of the native state.

For example, Denmark's strict immigration law reform has saved the country 6.7 billion euros compared to previous more permissive approach, according to a 2011 report from the Danish Integration Ministry. The following are more an argument against overpopulation than against immigration, but sometimes overpopulation is caused by immigration; some people think there is a certain size of land needed to provide for a population, e.g. to provide for the population's consumption, including absorption of waste products. Immigrants, in this logic, such as a new born child, reduce the per capita size of land of the native country; this idea dates back to Robert Malthus. Some are concerned about urban sprawl and congestion, alterations in the wildlife and natural environment of the state, an expansive carbon footprint due to immigration. Furthermore, some are concerned over a state's scarce resources, dwindling water reserves, pauperized soils and solid waste. Immigrants can bring infectious diseases uncommon to the native population from their home countries which some perceive as a threat of significance in opposition to immigration.

Some point out that this threat is overstated by opponents and there is a significant history of this argument being used by white supremacist groups in an embellished manner. Opponents of immigration claim that immigrants contribute to higher crime rates, but research suggests that people tend to overestimate the relationship between immigration and criminality; the academic literature provides mixed findings for the relationship between immigration and crime worldwide, but finds for the United States that immigration either has no impact on the crime rate or that it reduces the crime rate. Some concerns regarding immigration can be found in perceived military loyalty if the country of emigration becomes involved in a war with the country of immigration. If a country finds itself in the need of drafting. Many people make dangerous migration journeys. Harshly restricting immigration and making these restrictions known to potential emigrants may prevent them from taking such dangerous journeys.

Immigrants bring their culture with them. The immigrants' thinking, their norms, practices and values shape and influence the native country's culture; some such extensions and influences might not be desired by parts of the native population, for reasons that may include practises considered less civilized, restrictions as well as collisions with the native country's norms and values in general. Opponents of immigration state that immigrants have a net negative effect on public coffers due to the provisioning of medical care and welfare. Various factors influence the impact of immigrants to a nation's public coffers and their use of welfare. While immigrants can improve a state's welfare system by for example counteracting trends of aging populations their net economic impact might be negative. George Borjas, economics professor at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, states that "the more unskilled the immigrant, the more the immigrant will be a fiscal burden". High-skilled immigrants have better labor market prospects than those admitted based on kinship ties or for humanitarian reasons.

It depends on the tenures and ages of the immigrants and the cou

Rollin' Stone is the second studio album by American rapper Stevie Stone. The album was released on June 2012, by Strange Music; the album features guest appearances from Tech N9ne, Krizz Kaliko, Kutt Calhoun, Peetah Morgan, Hopsin, SwizZz, Big Scoob, Spaide R. I. P. P. E. R. Wrekonize, Magnum PI and Bernz; the album debuted at number 78 on the Billboard 200 chart. In a June 2012, interview with XXL, Stevie Stone spoke about the album, saying: "It’s a rollercoaster ride my slow records and my serious records are gonna have that 808 and that kick up in there, but on this album, I think it’s a full album, it’s something for everybody. This is more one of the party records, the club type records for the album, but there’s different records that’s gonna put you in a different mind frame. Like I did a record called ‘My Remedy,’ and that's just saying that when I hit the stage, music becomes my remedy and all my problems fade away. Music is my escape, it don't matter what happens, I been in situations where I get a bad phone call like five minutes before I hit the stage on some bullshit.

But soon as I hit the stage and I give it to the crowd and they give it to me back, all that shit just goes out the window... Strap on your seatbelt when you listen to it. I think it's gonna turn a lot of heads. You gonna see on the album, you can't put Stevie Stone in a box." Gregory Heaney of AllMusic gave the album three and a half stars out of five, saying "Stone seizes on the opportunity to reach a whole new group of listeners with an album that plays out like a meeting between new friends at a party. Early in the album, listeners get to see Stone's rowdy side on tracks like "808 Bendin'" and "Keep My Name Out Your Mouth," which feature guest spots by labelmates Tech N9ne and Kutt Calhoun before getting personal deeper into the album, opening up on more plaintive, reflective tracks like "My Life" and "The Road." Though Stone had been kicking around on Ruthless Records for a while, Rollin' Stone feels like a chance for Stone to reintroduce himself to the rap world, with the production talent and personal touch of Strange behind him, it's an opportunity he takes full advantage of."

The album debuted at number 78 on the Billboard 200 chart, with first-week sales of 6,000 copies in the United States
