They aren't asking them 2 give up their culture r their language they r simply asking them 2 learn the language of the country they chose 2 live n. If you moved 2 France would you expect them 2 accommodate you? R would you attempt to learn French. It's a linguistics issue. Even Ray Charles on heroin was smart enough to know that.
January 9th, 2009 at 10:13:54 bumbersnatch-Do they have signs in Chinese? Russian? No, because they aren't the language of the global economy. English is. The signs are for dollars not to accommodate Americans. India's English speaking population is larger than ours. English is spoken by more people in the world than any other language. As for here, it is ignorant of someone to move here & not expect to learn the language over 280M, over 92%, of our citizens speak. And ignorance is in abundance worldwide not just here.
January 9th, 2009 at 10:36:53 NICJEN2008-you're not to bright are you? Our educational system is hindered by the inability of 1000's of children to speak English. Our medical personnel are losing lives because translators don't fit into budgets & inability to communicate hinders medical care. Our EMT and emergency personnel hindered. Criminals are being released & cases dismissed because translators cannot be found to comply with our speedy trial rules. It is for their benefit as much as ours. Pull your head out of your ass.
January 9th, 2009 at 10:59:52 The first natives should have had better weapons.
January 9th, 2009 at 11:22:51 WELCOME TO AMERICA >> NOW LEARN HOW TO SPEAK ENGLISH !!! By the way, Im getting tired of opening an owners manual and finding english & spanish.Why don't they include french,german hebrew,chinese,japanese,greek etc. too ? Another screwy thing in the USA.
January 9th, 2009 at 11:45:50 Keeping one's heritage and native language should not be something to be ashamed of, nor is it something to be shunned by others. Any signs not being put up in english obviously does not have the native english speakers as a target audience. As a Chinese immigrant, I have long lost my ability to read and write Chinese. I can barely hold a conversation in my native tongue, and sometimes, I really do regret losing my heritage.
January 9th, 2009 at 12:08:49 English is actually NOT the official language of the United States of America. We do not have one. Probably for a reason. Think about that.
January 9th, 2009 at 12:31:48 so unaware of the real issues? this is a real issue? two honky trailer-park idiots singing about they don't want other people to speak other languages in this country. ray charles can see this is racist, and he's blind and dead. i would rather judge and name-call rather than try to tell people what to do and what language to speak. you = meathead
January 9th, 2009 at 12:54:47 after my family died for this county you forgot to add they also killed the indians and stoled some africans and killed them too.
January 9th, 2009 at 13:17:46 This makes a good point, but it is important not to forget that America was founded upon the idea that everyone was welcome, regardless of race, religion, origin, or economic class. I have been all over europe and in most places, they have english signs and audio after the native language. It is not unrealistic to suggest that foriegners living in America should learn to speak and understand english, however this is not an excuse to exude the American ignorance that the world has come to expect.
January 9th, 2009 at 13:40:45 What a moronic statement. Hereeeee' ¡s su muestra!
January 9th, 2009 at 14:03:44 About time someone wrote this song! I love it ! Maybe someone out there can tell me...when we travel to a foreign country, do we have an option to press 1 for English?
January 9th, 2009 at 14:26:43 OH, and for those of you who have come to the U.S. and make an honest living and go by the laws and language...WELCOME TO THE UNITED STATES.
January 9th, 2009 at 14:49:42 If you don't want to speak english in this country or go by our laws....GET THE HELL OUT!!!! Americans go to other countrys to live and have to learn their languages, why should it be any different for someone coming to live here. ALSO if you come to the U.S. do what our ancestors did, work for what you have...they didn't get everything for free and neither should you. ALSO if what I am saying pisses you off......YOU CAN GET THE HELL OUT TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
January 9th, 2009 at 15:12:41 NICJEN2008-So folks who pass along a video about a linguistic issue are racists. That's a different concept. And are you saying we shouldn't be proud to be Americans or believe our country is blessed? And what in the world has passing along this video got to do with being a Christian. There is nothing racist, hateful, bigoted, or unreasonable about the video. Unlike yourself of course who seems to take great pride in calling people names and judging. So sad you are so unaware of the real issues.
January 9th, 2009 at 15:35:40 it doesn't matter where you're from. I'm from Texas and I'm certainly not a redneck. it's what you say that counts. who cares if they don't want to speak english, that's not whats bringing our country down. it's this bullshit war from a lying president....i bet you voted bush
January 9th, 2009 at 15:58:39 LOL. Sorry to say you are wrong AGAIN! I am an insurance professional who lives in the north east and makes a H*LL of a lot of money. I go to work every day in business suits.
January 9th, 2009 at 16:21:38 "3houndsmom"?....they look more like muts to me. you sound like a redneck...so don't bother me
January 9th, 2009 at 16:44:37 What do you consider real important things?
January 9th, 2009 at 17:07:36 NICJEN2008, if you are so above the rest of us and so self rightous what are you doing getting email from a "Racists" and a "Christian". Any time this county become too "Proud" for you please feel free to leave it.
January 9th, 2009 at 17:30:35 I'm a white Italian American. Like many others my grandparents immigrated to this county. Unlike many others they immigrated LEGALLY and learned to speak, read and write English. When Americans travel over seas we are looked down upon because we expect every to speak English for us. While is it acceptable for other countries to look down on us for not speaking their native tougue when the tables are turned Americans are "Proud" and "Racists". Seems like a double standard to me.
January 9th, 2009 at 17:53:34 too bad americans are so Proud, and you people think this country is blessed? Racists, and a christian sent me this link, sad. oh and i'm white too. Sad to see this gets more hits than real important things.
January 9th, 2009 at 18:16:33 Think we all know about beaners going thru peoples garbage,try lacing a few part eaten taco's and burittas with rat killer,dump them in your garbage and sit back and watch the show.
January 9th, 2009 at 18:39:32 A MEXISWARM: Like a swarm of locust,only with mexicans. A mexiswarm starts when about 20 mexicans pile out of their van, and mob what ever event you are attending. They take over the free stuff and think nothing of stepping in front of you to grab what ever you are reaching for. They jabber away in mexican and get pissed off that you don't speak beaner. They let their little mexitards do what they want which is usually stealing and destroying other peoples stuff.
January 9th, 2009 at 19:02:31 It's going to be very interesting to see how the 'president elect'Barack Obama handles the immigration issues.Let's see how good this guy can 'dance' around this issue. Meanwhile we're going broke here in California paying for programs to provide medical treatment, education, childcare, etc for the population of illegal immigrants that just keep arriving every single day.The States that border Mexico are going bankrupt over this problem.
