I don't think Cope is 'picking off' any particular group of immigrants for special treatment. Seems to me that he mentions Eastern Europeans simply because there's a lot of them arriving recently, not because he doesn't like or want them (sure, he may dislike some of their religion but that seems a secondary issue, I don't think he would support banning entry on religious grounds)

Economics is indeed the reason behind most migration (as opposed to
asylum), and yes Cope is speaking from the viewpoint of a rock n roller. But his aim seems to be a peaceful integration of newcomers, and avoidence of trouble due to misunderstandings on both ends. In any case the freedoms and liberties enjoyed not just by artists but by all in this country are worth defending - from ourselves and our own government as well as newcomers.
