Where did I say that other countries bar drivers that don’t speak the language?

Well, let me repost it again, dropping an intervening sentence:

If she doesn’t speak English, what happens if she becomes involved in a dangerous traffic situation that necessitates following the orders of a policeman or other public safety worker?...We are the only country on earth that puts the interests of foreigners ahead of the interests of its citizens. "

And to quote what you said in that post about driving without a license -- oops, no need to - there is nothing in that post about driving without a license.

1. She needs to speak English. Her ignorance of English is a danger to herself and others.

2. The ticket for driving without a license was dropped, as well as the "non-English speaker" ticket. No Rule of Law for her. She gets a free pass.

3. We are allowing people to come to our country, legally and illegally, and doing nothing to require their assimilation into our society, one element of which is the English language.

4. By allowing this invasion of non-assimilators, and taxing ourselves to accommodate them, we are putting their interests, that is, the interest of foreigners, ahead of the interest of our own citizens, some of whom are endangered/harmed by these foreigners.

5. There is a significant difference between allowing non-English speaking visitors to our country to drive using international drivers' licenses for a short period of time, and allowing foreigners who come here to live indefinitely, settle in, enroll their children in school, etc, but failing to insist they learn our language and accommodating their ignorance of our laws.
