Trump Could Save Billions By Ending ‘Press 2 For Spanish’ Government Program...
And save me loads of curse words :)
Works for me. Watching a series about the border patrol on the Canada border and immigration points. Notice that a lot of signs in the airport in Detroitistan are in what appear to be arabic. WTH?! Immigration not subjugation.
If you can’t learn English, go back home. Go back home anyway.
Please please please end this sh*t - ENGLISH is the language here! Love it, learn it or leave!
Go back home anyway.
I totally agree with your statement.
It boggles my mind when I do my weekly grocery shopping in a Baltimore suburban county that English is a second, if not perhaps the third language.
Moreover, I gather that more and more school districts now have a majority of students who speak various other tongues while knowing little if any English.
And get rid of all the thousands of court interpreters the taxpayers are forced to pay for. Let the defendants pay for their own interpreters.
How messed up is that????
We used to go back and forth over the border years ago (Northern NY), never checking in with Customs on either side. Never needed to. They were our family and neighbors.
Now...all those roads are broken, and the border is like the DMZ
It would be very easy for the pphone companies to append a language specifier to our callerID. Then every site we called would know to respond in English. No need for the Press 1 bs.
Meanwhile, I note that many sites start out in Spanish, so we have to know what Depressa Dos means. How long before the messages start out in Arabic?
«Para Español, marque el numero dos.»Hey, I want “Chun Gaeilge, bruigh a trí”—can I have it, or is that extra-special white privilege?
Yeah, that’s a great idea. I get sick of having to waste my time waiting for the prompt “Press 1 for English”. Hey, in case you bank or other idiots have forgotten, this is MY country. You wanna live here, learn the language! Why should I be inconvenienced by your needs, which should have been corrected when you got here? Similarly, we have to leaf through instruction manuals, labels, etc. to find the English part.
Notice that this executive order was issued by Clinton near the end of his administration. He knew it wasn’t a good idea to do this when he still needed to use his clout with Congress. I don’t think this helped Al Gore in November 2000.
Most Americans didn’t even know.
Most Americans were enjoying the economy’s boom, that’s why the Gore-Bush election was 50-50.
This is one of those things that is better done quietly. Just do it and notify nobody. One day...it’s just gone.
The same with the stupid sign language interpreters. If you can use common English, you shouldn’t get special services.
> I believe the DMV in Calif...has over 25 or 30 languages..for the Divers License test... <
I looked it up. There are 32 different languages available! So why should any immigrant - legal or not - bother to learn English?
Side note: Cherokee is not on the list. Senator Liz “Indian Nation” Warren should file a complaint.

America needs an amendment to make English the official language but the left and their misfits will go bat sh*t crazy over the idea.
Won’t be long before it will be “Press 2 for English.”
Insurance companies offering Obamacare have to support something like 150 languages.
