I wonder what the ACLU would say to a proposal to require that all businesses with English signs add Spanish translations...

This would be wayyy too intrusive on government's part. I can see it now - a motel named La Riviera would, by law, have to include a translation, The Riviera. Would this apply to names? Can someone have a bar named Juan's without putting a translation, John's up. And what about Johann's Printing?

The English translation law would be a perfect example of where government doesn't need to be sticking its nose.

I think there position is clear. If you don't add them we just might sue your azz for everything you have. They are such wonderful, thoughtful, kind and sensitive totalitarians.
