I almost want to side with the ACLU on this. Businesses that don't want English signs simply don't get my business.

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

The American Communist Liberties Union is out-doing themselves with their hypocrisy.

Were there a bill, measure, or even a movement to post signs in only English, they'd be the first ones filing a complaint.

But if it's a sign in something OTHER than English...well that's just dandy. Anything to destroy American roots so that the country can be rebuilt as a Marxist state.

The ACLU hates this country and will continue to weaken its institutions and destroy its traditions until a majority of voters decide to slap them down. The congress has the power to deny them taxpayer funding -- they should do that immediately.

I agree in the idealist form of government, that doesn’t mandate language for businesses as an example. Its not right that tax dollars be taken from me to print bilingual and makes it harder for me to use forms or do business because of having to wade through all the gobledy gook when the government can take my kids away from me if I don’t send them to school to learn English.

But consider, one problem we have with the invasion and erosion of our free society and our fair and just government is that we treat those who don’t abide by the same rules as how we want to be treated even though they would not do the same for us, then they turn around and abuse these rights in order to destroy the very society that set them free.

For example, we freely give constitutional rights to enemy combatants whom when and if they ever go free would not allow the same, we integrate our schools and bend over backwards to help immigrants, but in LA for example when La Raza people become the majority, they start teaching separatist classes, all in the name of a so called "race" .

So, is it really wrong to be inconsistent with ideology, and force English tranlations, as they require of us, if the good of the overall culture is at risk and under invasion?

One might say, but those who use other languages are US citizens? However this is a myth, since immigrants will learn English within the first generation (lets be clear, nobody is kidding anybody the other language we are talking about is Spanish) , and since the majority of new immigrants in the first generation are illegal, then those who do not speak English for example have a greater proportion of not being US citizens to begin with.

Therefore, is it OK for our government to intrude and mandate laws to maintain our culture? I would argue that it’s not only right, but also that is the major function of our government to protect us form foreign invasion.

You seen this?

That reminds me. I recently read on their site that they are submitting a FOIA on the Haditha event.

gee I wonder who their clients are over there. They did after all lose federal money because they refused to agree NOT to hire terrorists.

[goodnesswins]

Well.....at least we'll know where to NOT do business......

Honest to God, they are without ACLU(e), and completely out of their minds. ARGH!
