It is written that we should show hospitality to the stranger.

It is written to halp the widow, the orphan and the stranger…(waqyfarer).

It is wrtten to practice hospitality for who knows if we are not entertaining an angel.

If you need chapters adn verse, you will need to look up each for yourself. I believe most who read all of the Word know these teachings.

Were I to cut and paste them or repeat them rote I am afraid my testimony of the Word would be false.

To "dislike" teachings from the Word speaks loudly, unbeliever.

As for criminals and criminal entry into countries, this is sinful. No one migrates to change other countries, this was never done in the days of Israel either. If the people who came into Israel adopted the ways of the country they were converted to the faith of Abraham. You sd see only the most ignorant think there was such a thing as Judaism in those days.
