GABELN:
Welcome with your first post.
I do not "hate" the idea of having to learn another language. I took Spanish 101 in college for a year. I didn't need it much because I lived in an America where English was the main language and we didn't have traitorous globalists as Presidents as we do now with Bush the idiot.
I listened to Spanish news throughout the entire beginning of the Iraq war with a Spanish dictionary in my hands. Why? So I could stop the tape and look up word I didn't know. Hardly someone "afraid" of learning a new language. Why bother even doing that? Because I would get better info truth-wise, as to what was really happening in the war -- not "sanitized" like Bush wanted.
I think everyone is enhanced knowing languages from different countries. What is wrong here is the Aztlan "ATTITUDE" - this was "OUR" country, and "WE" are going to take it back, and "WE" are going to all speak ONLY Spanish. That is the crap Aztlan hands out.
As for education, if the Mexicans here stayed IN SCHOOL and bothered to graduate from high school - which a good majority here in Los Angeles do NOT, they would be alot better prepared to get a better job, and get out of the poverty stranglehold, rather than follow the Aztlan garbage and think they are going to have all of us speaking Spanish and get what they want -- uneducated or not.
I think Spanish is a beautiful language and sprinkle some of my sentences with Spanish once in awhile because "it just fits" and I like saying it. It's the "Aztlan ATTITUDE" that offends. If Mexico is so fu-king great, why isn't everybody heading south? If they educated themselves, in Mexico, or even the illegal aliens here who can do it at TAXPAYERS EXPENSE, then the Mexican people can fix their own government instead of trying to come up here and say they are going to take over and make the southwest another corrupt piece of crap like the country they just left.
By the way, most of the Mexicans I know do TRY to learn English. It's the racist Aztlan-types that try to discourage the Mexican people from learning anything BUT Spanish. They, like the Mexican government, would LOVE to see their own people held down. No one is more racist than the lighter-skinned officials -- like Vincente Fox -- who oppress and hold down their own darker skinned people. Fox hates the indigenous Indian people of Mexico, thinks he and others "like him" are better, and he doesn't want to help them, he just wants to get them out of Mexico. He and those of his ilk are the biggest racists of all.
