I love it. I am sick of being visually assaulted by english and spanish signs on everything in Lowes.

I was looking at DVD players a few weeks ago and had to turn one box around several times before I found English writing. It was actually on the side I first looked at but was hidden by so much Spanish.

Please spread that message!
I am sick and tired as well...

BTW: I learned English BEFORE I came to the US; I thought, well, gee, it was the right thing to do do in order to, well become an American, be accepted, get absorbed by the community, be able to contribute, be productive, etc....

Those blankety-blank Eng/Span signs are everywhere in KS not only in Lowe's, grocery stores, CVS, Walgreens and of course Wal-mart but the abomination happened when I was in Home Depot and heard what amounted to a "blue light special" spoken over the PA in Spanish!

I was so disgusted that I stormed out passing the Customer Service desk and loudly stated, "This is America, speak English!"

You too! Home Depot drives me nuts.

The spanish signs seem bigger than that english ones.

I figure it’s a private business, it can do as it wants. But I certainly don’t have goodwill towards HD about it.

Shouldn’t people building homes and stuff here know the language enough to find “electrical” and “paint”? Put up a picture if it’s so darn confusing.
