Not helpless, but I stopped riding the bus. More crap in the air now *shrug*.
I guess because one can survive, we shouldn't resist the surge of illegal immigrants into the country who refuse to learn English and gobble up social services desperately needed by American Citizens.
I mean since i'm not *totally helpless*, I should simply shut up? At least that is what I am infurring from your post. Do correct me if I am wrong.
Doesn't sound like you are too helpless, although you try to convey that as hyperbolic rhetoric.
See above. Once you're "too helpless", it's too late.
First of all isn't mass transit in LA an oxymoron. LA now has a subway but from what I hear nobody uses it now and I've heard that the bus service is a joke.

Actually I agree that schools should use English immersion. It's the teachers unions who want to keep the money flowing that bilingual education brings. There was referendum in California a couple of years ago to scale down bilingual education and I beleive it passed by a margin of 2-1. Also I've herad that many hispanic families want their children to be taught in English since English is now the world language and the ticket to success.
JMO, your anger should be directed at the liberal groups who wish to enslave their populations and not using a broad brush to paint all hispanics as not wanting to learn English or assimilate, thus alienating people who are culturally conservative into the arms of the liberal democrats.
