Spanish, not English, is the most all-American language and has been for centuries

Is it dangerous to speak Spanish in public in Trump's America? Well, sí! Just this month, we've seen a lawyer threaten to call ICE after he overheard people in a restaurant in Manhattan speak in Spanish, and a Border Patrol agent in Montana detain two Mexican-American women for 40 minutes because he heard the bilingual women chatting en español, because the language “is very unheard of up here,” according to la migra man.

If the zeros over at NBC really believe this, Why are they teaching their kids in Spanish?

Better yet, if the zeros over at NBC really believe this, why don't they hire strictly Spanish speaking broadcasters/actors/speakers and broadcast strictly in Spanish on all their U.S. NBC channels ?

The last paragraph:

“So get with the program, racists, and learn Spanish. And for the record: when we speak Español, we’re not talking about you. We don’t even care about you.”


The author is so dumb he thinks Spanish is a race.

Well, you were close phonetically.
I wasn’t trying to give you a
Spanish lesson, merely posted
the phrase. My apologies if you’re
offended.

I’ve always thought so-I asked MrT5 once why it took a long, polite sounding sentence just to tell someone to GFY-he thought that was funny, so I demonstrated the comparative simplicity of Spanish-you snarl vete a la chin***, as you flip them off for emphasis-same as with English, short, vulgar and to the point...

All liberals want to call it a race-the fact that ethnic Spanish/Hispanics are just another mostly-Caucasian/European ethnic group doesn’t give them a good reason to hate whitey...

It asks is it dangerous to speak Spanish and then gives ONE instance in an attempt to prove the point. Sorry, but that doesn’t work.

Foreign Languages spoken here 200 Years ago?

Let’s see:

English
Spanish
French
Italian
German
Portuguese
Dutch
Irish and Scottish Gaelic

And believe it or not Russian, spoken mostly in Northern California, where the Russians controlled Yuge parts of.

All other native languages were distinctly different, with no collective language to unify under from sea to shining sea...

In more formal Spanish, it can be “besa me culo”, but it still sounds weird if you think in English-all Latin-based languages seem odd that way. My family/maiden surname is one of those old, old Basque ones that start with “Z”, the meaning of which has been lost in the antiquity of a Spanish not spoken even in Spain for 100’s of years-many of those old names sound like curses or pejoratives when given an English pronunciation rather than the Spanish one-and only an expert in archaic languages knows what it originally meant-ain’t language grand?

One of my cousins worked on the Alaska pipeline some years ago-he said he met a surprising number of people who spoke Russian as a 2nd language-especially those of mixed Russian/Native American ancestry-it must be collusion-Robert Muller, please pick up the white courtesy phone...

Something I learned years ago while stationed in W Germany. A young German girl would babysit for us and practice her ‘English’ while doing so and teaching us German at the same time. One day she came over and told us that her English teacher had told her she had to stop using us as folk to practice her English on. Seems we were teaching her how to speak ‘American’ and messing up her English syntax and diction.

Here’s one I swatted years ago:

Austin SJW: “Native peoples should allowed to speak in their native Spanish!”

“Hate to break it to you: Spanish is not a Native American language.”

The way Liberals carry on about Deportation, you would think “Mexico” was Spanish for “Auschwitz”.

In a way the Spanish Empire was a victim of its own success, so far-flung it was impossible to administer and maintain.
*************************************
Seems the same fate happened to Great Britain and the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany. Is China nearing that point, what with their tentacles in so many different continents and countries?

MAGA, hopefully, will ensure the US does not overreach.
