I used to drive through Allentown frequently back in the 1970’s when it was still an American city.
I say, “ Asi es la vida “
Same here for paesans.
over 300k Italians on Staten Island and the closest we come to an Italian named street is Fr. Capadanno Blvd.
Half my friends speak fluent Italian and many have relatives in Italy. None speak English with an italian accent.
They are AMERICANS. They teach their kids italian as a second language. That’s nice.
But they are AMERICANS. Spanish need to GET THAT!!
unbelievable.
That's how it begins. First it's "wants to honor," then it's "bows to pressure from," and finally it's "has no choice but to accede to demands by."
And what do they mean by "decorative?" Does each sign bear a little "Frito Bandito" riding atop it?

These same ass hats would claim to be Native Americans. Spanish is not a native American lanquage, A..H....!!!!!
Welcome your new latino overlords.
If they wont learn American English and refuse to assimilate with our culture, they are always free to LEAVE.
Save your money, Allentown. When Trump is elected, the mexican population will be headed back to Mexico.
And I’ve never heard or heard of anywhere that makes you push one for Gaelic.
N.E. Pa. Was once a great part to grow up and live. Now, many areas are Spanish s***holes.
This is good thing. As I learned driving in Los Angeles, once the signs stop being in English turn around and get out of there ASAP+. Same one would do with a MLK street.
I think this is a little different, these people aren’t from the same country, when you look at other areas where these type of alternative signage was displayed, it was only to honor their geographical origin and not reidentify the street.
Examples: little Vietnam, China Town, etc...
What’s gonna happen when they want to convert Martin Luther King Blvd into Spanish?
How do.you even SAY Martin Luther King Blvd in Spanish?
You know, I distinctly remember when liberals used to go on about “ugly Americans,” and how we dared to travel as visitors to other countries and expect them to speak English.
Now, those very same “liberals” expect America to cater to every other immigrant, no matter their origination. Even worse, it’s the illegal aliens who generally DEMAND that America cater to their languages and culture (it’s been my experience that legal residents, aliens, and naturalized citizens wish to become PART of their America, not turn it into the place they escaped.) California is a perfect example. I counted 27 different language translations on the California Dept of Social Services web site. Note that this is NOT for visitors or tourists. But for permanent residents.
It’s amazing how these useful idiots on the left have tried for so long to destroy America, without realizing what they were doing. They have been, and continue to be the mindless drones, performing the will of people like Soros.
