I'm sorry but that is ridiculous. By this logic any and all tourists to this country would have to learn English well enough to go anywhere or do anything. Have you ever visited another non-English speaking country? If not, I guarantee you that in most other places you go you will not be required to speak their language to go into a store and order food. If that were the case I would never would have been able to go anywhere during the seven years I spent in Europe. Instead I was able to go wherever I pleased. If I was in a place where I didn't know the language well enough I was never thrown out or refused service.
Besides, I hope you realize that immigrants who have come here legally did not all arrive in this country speaking perfect English. In fact, many of them knew no English at all upon arrival. My grandparents are a perfect example. They came here legally and spoke virtually nothing but Maltese, but over time learned English and became US citizens.
I understand your point about your firearms business and how you will only deal with customers who speak English. But we are talking about sandwiches here, not weapons. I hope you can see the big difference.
Did you read my entire post?
I make a clear distinction between business travelers, tourist, and illegal "immigrants".
I even provide examples of the difference.
I have traveled extensively, and in every country I visited there was a expensive business/tourist area, where English was common.
But I can tell you from personal experience that two blocks off the Ginza in Japan, or Itawan Street in Seoul So. Korea, you are ON YOUR OWN unless you speak the local language.
Sure, it seemed that everybody spoke English in Rome, but I never got a chance to leave the city, I'm sure the rural area would probably have been another story.
The Scottish Brogue can make English indecipherable to anyone who is not used to it, visit rural Scotland some time.
As I stated, hotels and legitimate international business interest ensure that they can communicate.
But there is no reason for us to coddle illegals from ANY country!
