Uyghurs belong in Central Asia with their brethren. If they can't handle living in China, a country experiencing the fastest growth rates for the longest time, in all of Human history, maybe they should be deported. Just an opinion for my Han brothers.

Nope, Koreans already founded a native and independent country, and if Koreans are going back to Central Asia, American Indians might as well go back to Siberia. You are taking things out of proportion.

Actually most Uyhgurs (extremists excluded) Chinese in China are taking the advantage of their "privilege as ethnic minorities" policy and busy making money in China. One can travel freely between mainland China and the Uyhgurs regions if they want to find out for themselves.

Uyghurs are exactly where they originally were from. There is nowhere to go back to. The first people in Xinjiang were the Yuezhi (Tocharians), an Indo European people who died out. They were replaced by the Xiongnu (nomad). Since the Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu in the Han-Xiongnu War, the general area of Xinjiang has changed hands many times between various nomad (Rouran, Gokturk) and Chinese dynasties (Tang, Qing). Even in modern history Xinjiang changed hands several times (Chinese warlords, Soviet invasion, ROC), in the end the last one to take over was the PRC (obviously).
