--SNIP-- Since Trump took office, deportation officers have been unshackled, as the White House describes it, from an Obama-era mandate to focus limited enforcement resources on deporting immigrants with serious criminal convictions. Across the country, they have been rounding up people like Franco who have sunk roots in this country, living for years, if not decades, with little fear of apprehension. Nowhere, however, have federal agents more aggressively embraced their newfound freedom than in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Delaware, an investigation by ProPublica and the Inquirer and Daily News foun

Well of course you patronize where you feel comfortable.

We shouldn’t have two official languages. But private conversation is free speech, is it not?

I do agree, when you live in a foreign country, you learn the language to the best of your ability out of respect and simple practicality.

Why are kids speaking a foreign language loudly in a public place in the suburbs? They’re not tourists.
Are they intent on learning the language? Are they intent that we will have two languages.

Are they learning English? No. Are they associating with americans? Why not?

Industry is growing in WV ... I'd like to see those manufacturing jobs, and all the resulting secondary job creation, go to Americans ... preferably West Virginians.

In Germany, even in sections where many americans live, the Germans speak German

In the US, retail outlets etc hire only bilingual and patronize and even favor spanish speaking

They are one side of the invasion

Do not dream that these nasty disrespectful educated girls and their families will be happy with bilingual with Spanish being secondary in twenty years from now

And in that workd there is also a rejection of our foundation and culture

That is ignorant

That lack of foresight is another way the culture is giving our country away

Language is given away on the street locally where citizens give our culture away to foreign invaders with no intention of giving a crap about our country ever

We expect the government and the military to do everything. For trump to do everything

Why can’t i exercise my freedom of speech and tell young Americans how to assimilate into America?

The Springfield Township Police Department in Bucks County, where Franco’s accident occurred, did not report him to ICE, Chief Michael A. McDonald said. Rather, it was ICE that called Springfield, seeking to confirm that citations had been issued to Franco for careless driving and driving without a license.

Bull crap.... How would ICE even know about this accident?

Oh of course you can exercise your right. I don’t know if it’s going to win anyone over to criticize the language used in private conversation.

I just see it as far more principled to oppose illegal immigration and bilingual mandates, say, than to get after some chattering teens.

You mention Germany, and it is well known that they speak English there as well, so much so that people who want to visit and try to practice German there get frustrated because the Germans just answer in English!

Of course they don’t have the problem of Americans crashing their borders and demanding citizenship so there is that.

In NY we always tod people to speak English

In the hospital we always told colleagues to speak English. People who were here legally from the Phillipines. They would smile, apologize, and then speak english

My current boss says workers are to speak Engish directing us that customers and other workers dont want staff talking about them in a different language. It is rude

Thise girls spoke perfect English.

But we dint have freedom of speech when ot comes to telling Spanish speaking kids pretending to be here to assimilate, which they are not, to knock it off

Spanish is protected

I undertand your points

I spent many years living in europe so believe me when i say they are not going to give over the national language of germany to americans. Nor is france. Nor is mexico

We, on the other hand, in pretending to be nice to others forget, in our wimpiness and self loathing, to take cre of ourselves.

We have not yet stopped the outrageous wave of illegal immigration.

I think one or two of us can get with the program and quit expecting trump to fix everything

Those girls will probably become more obnoxious. They might as well know what a lot of us think before the entire culture is given over if that happens. I have no problem telling them what I think.

I embarrased them and myself and the cashier

I get that

So what?

Thats a reason not to tell teens that their behavior is unacceptable. I grew up having or expecting to have adults tell me when i was offensive

We are so afraid of these particular immigrants because they loathe us, our culture, language and borders and they are ready to yell back at well dressed educated women who have contrubuted to the village their whole lives who find it painful to watch their peers give it away to these pushy america haters

They are not allowed to hate our language or resent having to learn it and use it

Their parents and grandparents are exempt. The time to learn language is in youth.

Ive taken care of foreign speakers my whole life. I was trying to revive someone just this week who spent her life here speaking another language (not spanish) I have no such opinion of her behavior or language skills. I can deal with foreign speakers.

Kids must learn and use our language out in public. It has always been that way. until now Until this moment in american history whn the average joe thinks its okay to allow his home town to be taken over culturally to america despisers

Doesnt matter that i am a war veteran

Thank you for your service. What do i say to that? Get busy and tell people to quit despising our country and her people

"he had lived a productive, crime-free decade in the United States"

...except for the crime of illegal entry into the United States.

And quite likely, working illegally without a work permit required of foreigners, or obtaining such a permit using false information, using an illegally obtained social security number...
