Although not specifically a "counter post", I did, in my reply, state
specifically that racism is destructive and irrational.  Your general point,
however, that immigrants receive too little in the way of specific welcome and
acceptance, I grant as correct.  I thank you for suggesting (by implication) a
specific constructive action that an individual might take in opposition to
racism.

For the record, to anyone who has recently immigrated to my country (the U.S):
Welcome.

Also for the record, to any and all who insist on saying: "I'm not a racist, I
just don't like immigrants.":
Oh Puhleeeeeeeeeeeez! Who do you think you're kidding?

Best Regards,
Mike C.
