...at one time it was consider bad manners to speak a foreign language in front of someone who didn't if you could speak english.
we've gone a long way in the PC wrong direction
from I usually use bad manners daily to I feel humiliated.
great example of how political correctness can damage a society.

I used to feel bad when I have to ask someone to repeat what they said over and over again until I could understand what they are saying, certainly not anymore. This problem comes from our own too. They speak some fractured English without any diction.....
