That's a nice way to say "no, I don't have sources for this from unbiased sources, but I want you to ignore every other point so I'm going to try to continue the conversation down this route instead".
You're just a right wing hack. It's that simple. You made fucking retarded mistakes because you're a hack. You will continue to make mistakes because you're a hack.
My third point (non-European immigrants in Europe committing violent crime at vastly higher rates than natives) is supported by official government statistics, lmao!
My first point (many studies which are coming to the conclusion you're talking about not distinguishing properly between different types of immigrants) hinges on the concrete study you want to use as a starting point for this debate. Of course you haven't posted a link yet, but blast me for not providing sources.
My second point (the US having a native population which commits violent crime at unusually high levels) isn't controversial at all. It is, in fact, the exact same argument that you and your ilk use constantly when it comes to debates about gun control. ("There are so much less shooting victims in Australia or Sweden!")

I think American immigrants assimilate extraordinarily well. Unlike Europe where ethnicity and culture are inextricably linked, our culture is based off of ideas which is why anyone can come here and assimilate. The ones who come here truly drink the Kool-Aid and believe that America is number 1 and they will bust their ass to do that. They know what it's like to live in a shit hole and are deeply appreciative of what America has to offer.
The way to cure xenophobia in America is to interact with immigrants and listen to their love for America. Seeing a Chinese guy talk shit about Communism in a broken accent is one of the most American things out there and even Trump voters will give them a high five.
While this is true, there are definitely also the other types of immigrant, those who jump on the Left's "America is an irredeemably racist country"-train (e.g. Ilhan Omar). Those are a minority though.
And while your country has historically done a MUCH better job integrating and assimilating immigrants than Europe, it should be noted that the Democratic party has broken clearly in favor of multiculturalism over assimilation in recent years.
