Isn't free travel within the EU just as 'radical'? And haven't western democracies already accepted many millions of migrants? The US alone accepts one million immigrants per year.

"of whom about 600,000 are Change of Status who already are in the U.S". However, it's not about immigration.
How many Syrian/Libyan/Afghan/Venezuelan/Iraqi _refugees_ did the US take in the last 5 years? (You've probably noticed that the examples I cited are not random).
This is all on top of an already significant immigrant population - in Germany alone there are 19.3 million people with immigrant background: https://www.dw.com/en/german-population-with-immigrant-backg...
Your second comment on Germany is totally irrelevant.
And 1 million people for Europe is nothing considering the total population and wealth of the union. As I write in the comment you ignored: some of the poorest and smallest countries in the world took in more than a million refugees and without help.
And it's 1 million in one year, but 5 million since 2008. Unlike with Colombia, almost none are from neighboring countries. That's counting only refugees, not total immigrants: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_migrant_crisis#Asylum...
Given these numbers, is there any amount of immigrants the EU/US would have to accept, to be considered sufficient?
There's no point in continuing this exchange.
