Well ain’t that just grand!
I hope you are referring to illegals and not all hispanics.
Shame on me—of course you are right. Sorry.
It’s confusing to small business owners just starting out.
Just getting the Tax ID can be confusing. Of course, they can just use their SSN for it, so I’m assuming they are going about it legally.
Good for them.
If a person moves into this Country Legally, he or she should take whatever classes are available to learn English.
What Georgia doesn’t need any more of is “ghetto shopping areas” where all the signs are in Spanish or Vietnamese or Arabic. If I want to shop in Spanish, I’ll go to Mexico or Spain or Peru.
English, American English, is the language of this Nation. This is the USofA, we speak American English here. It should be the ONLY language of all official paperwork. Think of the billions of dollars the Federal and State Governments could save if all official documents were printed only in American English.
I’m in NC and we have the worst of the worst. The state government democrats offer freebies to illegals that attracts them here en mass like sharks to blood.
And I thought a certain mimimum ability to communicate in English was a requirement for naturalization and citizenship.
Evidently this community service project is intended to benefit Spanish speaking non-citizens, making it easier for alien invaders to function as though they were naturalized citizen immigrants.
Stupid me!
You might be better off that me. I live in Michigan about 150 miles from the largest Muslim population in the country and 20 minutes from a Muslim Center. I don’t know which is worse. One group is hiding and the other is displaying with mosques, giant penis’ and call to prayer 5 times a day. Our entire country is screwed up thanks to the politically correct crowd.
Let's start with: BE AN AMERICAN CITIZEN. Follow that up with HIRE ONLY AMERICAN CITIZENS.
Just getting the Tax ID can be confusing. Of course, they can just use their SSN for it, so I’m assuming they are going about it legally.
Good for them.
That some people have a problem with Spanish being spoken at all by these recent immigrants bespeaks their problem with the 1st Amendment. Then again, it isn't at all uncommon to see the lawful immigrants who appreciate the freedoms and opportunities being productive and excelling in America, while the lazy nativists are too busy wasting their time whining about other people's languages.
Hornitos ... translates to LIMP DICK??
Take you Hispanocentric Bigotries ELSEWHERE.
First amendment says you have the right to free speech... It does NOT GUARANTEE the Right to be LISTENED TO
Jorge will have a jackboot in your rear and you will be off to rehab, if you keep it up. :)
If they didn't come here legally let them adopt their rears back to there home countries. You name matches your brain!
I’ve been saying for a long, long time: These folks do not want to assimilate. They do not want to speak our language, they do not want to embrace our culture, they do not want to become Americans; they just want to get all they can from America.
Samuel P. Huntington of Harvard, author of the “The Clash of Civilizations,” wrote “Mexican immigration is a unique, disturbing and looming challenge to our cultural integrity, our national identity, and potentially to our future as a country. The persistent inflow of Hispanic immigrants threatens to divide the United States into two peoples, two cultures, and two languages. Unlike past immigrant groups, Mexicans and other Latinos have not assimilated into mainstream U.S. culture, forming instead their own political and linguistic enclaves—from Los Angeles to Miami—and rejecting the Anglo-Protestant values that built the American dream. The United States ignores this challenge at its peril.”
I think the point is that the paper work is in English. That is why the spanish speaking people need help understanding it.
Before you jump to the conclusion that all these people are illegal, you should understand that one can be competent in English, and wish to have government forms and legal documents translated into their native language.
I have spoken English since I was seven, but still prefer to have legal documents translated into Spanish. It is easier to understand, for me. When signing legal documents it is a good idea to understand to the last detail what you are signing. I know many English speaking people that didn’t understand their legal docs and ended up in adjustable rate mortgages, that automatically increase 2 points each year.
