I know a number of American transfans, who are the best people you could ever meet, so it's not fair to label them all as bad. And I wouldn't just let anyone in, I would be processing them first (with the board staff) to make sure it is beneficial for us and them to be here. Plus if there is any unprovoked disruptiveness, they will be removed.
Sure I could just do whatever I want and let in anyone I want here, but if I did that all the time without some sort of consultation first, you guys wouldn't feel like you were really part of this community and be less interested in being here.
I wouldn't be wanting to see more than a few non-locals here anyway, so don't be too worried about there being a domination of this board. You probably won't even notice them much at all.
