So? Why does that make you feel uncomfortable? Visit Houston sometime. There is one area where the street signs are in Vietnamese, areas where most of the signs are are in letters I can't decipher, areas where most of the signs are in Spanish. So what? It doesn't hurt me. It doesn't make me feel insecure. It doesn't threaten me. I welcome the new experiences. I like trying new foods, learning new things, talking to people who aren't identical to me and listening to different bands. It's my choice to mingle with different people or to stick with my own kind. I like having the options.

How can you type with your head so firmly buried in a dark place?

Multi-culturism of the type that you find cute will lead to balkanization of our society on nearly every level, starting with the schools our kids attend. Look at the Quebec model to see what you are inviting for us.

What made America strong through waves of immigration was the acquisition by each new group of American culture and values. These new groups resist that and guys like you encourage them to remain separate so you can enjoy a different meal every once in a while.

Bull!

It's called freedom. Do you want to use the police powers to force everyone to be exactly like you? Would you feel more secure if everyone was forced to wear the same style clothes as you? Eat the same foods? Listen to the same music? Attend the same church?

Pizza is Italian, hot dogs are German, tacos are Mexican, egg rolls are Chinese, and bagels are Jewish. How does it hurt you for all to co-exist in America?
