You may not be concerned about the crime, but many voters are. The author of the article you linked to also exhorts the Somali immigrant community to not engage in crime.
> because that seems like a somewhat higher tendency until the 2nd and 3rd generation is able to make it into established society.
History and data from various European nations suggest that some immigrant groups aren't able to integrate with the host society after multiple generations, and remain ghettoized with low employment and high crime rates (vastly higher than the native population, for certain categories of crime).
It's clear that the national interest is in accepting skilled immigrants who migrate legally and are able to integrate fully into the host society, a la Teddy Roosevelt's dropping of the hyphen. It is not desirable to have separate ethnic groups who "share the same language, culture and faith" distinct from the mainstream.
Does it suggest that, though? It suggests that, in the specific conditions that were presented to those groups, they turned to crime. However, we can't pretend that the previous generations of immigrants had exclusively good experiences and quality of life, even in Europe. Obviously, some countries tried their best but in the past decades we had far less experience on proper integration (we as in the collective we, no country has worked out some perfect plan on it).
In fact, certain countries specifically created neighbourhoods (ghettos) for immigrant populations, all with positive intentions. Can't really blame the migrants for then becoming "ghettoized" in such a scenario. Granted, I know of other countries that specifically did not do that and still had struggles, which just goes to show how the whole thing is a minefield, where good intentions can clash with harsh reality.
Still, they do excellent work to this day, just with questionable detours.

Seems in direct contradiction with this anarchist click bait title.
It's filled with interactive notes that are very useful for understanding the linguistic and cultural references.
Here's my reading method that I found effective:
1. Read a section on paper.
2. Go through the same section on the site.
3. (Re-)read on paper.
One may think "It's fine, I'll simply read the text and then, if I have questions, absorb some scholarly articles on it." Trust me, you will enjoy it so much more when you understand Joyce's intent and clever writing as it happens. You simply can't take it all in post-factum, too much would be missed.
