If it was mainly about the European migrants the No vote would have won. The issue became once the Middle Eastern migrants started flooding across Germany and the UK citizens saw the kind of destruction they were causing in Hungary, Sweden, Austria, Germany and other countries hit hardest. EU wanted to force these migrants equitably across EU nations and that is really why the Yes vote won. In reality Angela Merkel can be blamed for Brexit more than anyone. The US has always been a multi ethnic society, but Europe hasn't, so I believe they have the right to protect their society from cultural and ethnic dilution. 

I see. Well at the notion of "ethnic dilution", I think I will have to leave you to your opinion.

I think it's clear. Europe, the middle east and Africa have always been LARGELY homogeneous. The US, Canada and some others not. I'm American and have no issue with the American system (so long as we're talking legal immigration) because that's what makes our society and culture so unique. However I'm not for Americanization of every corner of the world. When I travel I want to see the cultures and societies of the places I travel to, not an Americanized version of it. I travel a lot and see this happening everywhere, linguistic, cultural and other forms of dilution of of western values in to local cultures. To be clear, the issue isn't ethnic mixing, but cultural mixing it brings with it.
