Tony Blair ought to visit El Cenizo, Texas, a little nothing town near Laredo. Back in 1999:
The city council passed an ordinance requiring that city business be conducted in Spanish so all city residents can understand their own government. They also instructed city employees, all six of them, not to cooperate with the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) in searching for, or apprehending deportable people. They did not order that city business not be conducted in English with English speakers; they did not order that students be taught in Spanish-only in public or private schools. They did not order that Spanish be the only language spoken in the city.
[. . .]
They don't like Anglos telling them what to do and they don't like the INS.
As far as I can tell, city business is still being done in Spanish. I suppose there are no elementary or middle or high schools in that part of our great State of Tejas.
That was the day I decided in favor of adopting English as our national language.
