But, truth be told, many Americans read quotes from Omar and Talib and wonder why they live here? They sure don't seem to like American Values.

Oooh. They "don't like American values." That's another fine racist dog whistle, right up there with "go back to where you came from" and "don't be ungrateful to America."
