Spanish is the dominant language in Miami. So people who move to Miami need to be given 18 months to learn Spanish or they need to live? Hawaiian is the official language of Hawaii. Should people who move to Hawaii be forced to learn Hawaiian?
Loco, this is a really stupid position you are taking (IMO). Miami is not a sovereign country.
These disrespectful people? So this is about respect and emotions, no about the law? So American citizens who show disrespect toward the flag, the government, the president should be kicked out of the country just for that?
Yes, its about disrespect. You are disrespecting the country you immigrated to and causing a unneeded burden by your unwillingness to learn it's language. It affects everyone. If you are going to immigrate to this country you should be able to contribute with out placing an unnecessary burden on it's infrastructure and people. Come one come all, just speak english.
Stay on subject, I'm not talking about disrespecting the flag. I'm talking about person's refusal to learn the overwhelmingly dominate language of the country they live in while people of other cultures have the common sense, and decency to learn it.
Why are they disrespectful? How do you know they don't try to learn English in the US, but they just have a hard time since they are surrounded by Spanish speaking people, Spanish radio, Spanish newspapers, Spanish TV, Spanish businesses, etc.? Have you ever tried to learn a foreign language?
By that logic it's impossible to learn a foreign language therefore there are no bilingual people in the world.
Where there's a will there is a way. Where there isn't a will there is a bunch namby pamby BS like what you just wrote here.
Learning passible english is not beyond the reach of any person. If i immigrated to Mexico, I would definitely learn passible spanish as i know passible tagalog. (When i was in the field years ago, in my business, i got close to speaking passible spanish as it was a necessity of business i was willing to undertake)
