A lot of Chinese who came to America did not do so for religious freedom. They came for economic opportunities so frankly I don't really care about the ones who are liberal.
You're referring to Mainland Chinese (
Oriental). These guys don't respect the laws: cut in line when somebody ain't watching, bad driving and car accident, money laundering, illegal gambling.
The Chinese (
Southern) that fled from the communists (
Northern) looking for better life in America. They're the one help the Americans built the railroads in California.
Not sure you have watched one classic religious chinese movie, Rhythm of Destiny, took place in Hong Kong (
the Southern). Aaron Kwok played as the prodigal son have a poor life where his mother died from heart attack and his older brother get killed by gangs.
