Yep. I made exactly that point in not (originally) blaming my friend for his ill-informed reaction -- the media and politicians are so busy pandering to bigots they never talk about what immigrants' experiences are like. But he quickly turned into one of those "being called a racist is worse than doing something racist" people, and I don't think he got much out of what I said at all.
