Perhaps you explain what you think the link is, in light of that point?
Only those who don't want to integrate. As far as I know, the Africans and Asians do integrate, the arabs don't nearly as much. The less said about the Yanks and the Brits the better who prefer to stay in their own little communities and want to speak English when it comes to work.
Last I heard, it was French politicians passing restrictive legislation, and the French polity swinging to the right in large part due to the influx of immigrants.
Methinks one of the lenses in your spectacles is busted ... you're only focusing on one view.
ETA: That still doesn't explain how America would have fewer immigrant-integration issues if only it had tighter gun-control laws, which was your claim.
Also, given that you've never been to America and admittedly know no Americans, on what authority are you making your claim about Americans being brought up on Wayne/Eastwood/Ladd, and thus imbibing the movie portraits they've made? I think garnering your stereotypes about Americans from the movies you've watched is pretty inane. I also think it's obvious that's your, ahem, source that you'll be considering, until you get to this line of this post.
