i was born and live in england but it seems as if immigrants get an easier life?

For example, immigrants have been allowed to claim our benefits even if they don't really need them. They are getting better council houses than us, if they get in trouble by the police they're more likely to get off lightly, I do understand that because they may not know the law here. The immigrants don't tend to respect the British and it is our country.

They do get it easier, because this pu$$y country is afraid of getting blown up, or covered in chinese people. I'm not being racist, but when they see one muslim or hindu or what ever blowing themselves up in london... they stereotype. Don't you also hate it how their women can wear those ninja thing's, and we're not even allowed a mother fooking Biker walk through a shopping centre!?

It's a myth that immigrants claim 'our' benefits. Anybody coming from outside of the EEA and Switzerland cannot claim benefits until they have applied for and been granted indefinite leave to remain (settlement). This takes five years for most and two years for immigrants married to a British citizen or someone who has ILR already. It is a criminal offence for them to claim non contributory benefits but they can claim benefits that are only available to those who work and pay national insurance such as maternity leave and allowance. EEA migrants can only claim benefits from the UK if they have been habitually resident in the UK, usually that means three months minimum and they have been economically active during that time. All EEA nationals can continue to claim benefits from their home country for the first three to six months that they are job seeking in another EEA country. Any medical care they need during that time (apart from emergency treatment which is free to all) is reimbursed by their own country. Even British citizens cannot return to the UK and expect immediate benefits and NHS treatment as though they have never been away. Asylum seekers are a slightly different case. If they are destitute, they are paid a weekly allowance that is considerably lower than any benefit payment. This does not come out of the welfare state budget. They are also given emergency housing, usually outside of London and almost always through letting from private landlords. The only public housing stock used is in such poor condition that no British family would want it. It is extremely difficult to get asylum in the UK and only about 9% of applicants succeed in getting refugee status. The vast majority of those become economically active very quickly. I would like to know on what you base your belief that immigrants get treated more lightly by the Police. I imagine that any person belonging to an ethnic minority would strongly dispute this. You only need to analyse the UK prison population to refute your assumption. The media stories that you here about people coming to the UK and getting a council house, benefits and even in one case a car are totally fictitious.
