To: Peace will be here soon

"So in your view, any business in the U.S. that makes an effort to sell products to someone who doesn`t speak English is somehow acting unethical? "

Yes, if one looks at the facts that 85% of those who speak Spanish are illegal immigrants, and then 85% of these business are catering to illegal activity although the owner is within his legal rights to do so, which I agree with you … Porn or slavery are and or were two legal activities, that were given as examples of legal activities that have been detrimental to our country. . These are not opinions; these are facts.

The opinion I do have is that any business owners has a right to make money, but also if they are to be valued in high regard, they also have an obligation to the legal law abiding people of this country. Sure it’s the governments obligations to enforce the laws, and to crack down on those importing the working salve class for profits But in this case this owner is not trying to help the situation, he is plagiarizing the legal citizens by enticing more illegal workers to live in this country with the amenities of home, e.g. Spanish media, and also hurting legal immigrants as well for not allowing them to immerse into Americana with English broadcasting, selah

That is a huge stretch. I don`t think illegals are coming to LA to listen to baseball. And Baseball is played worldwide, it is not something unique to the United States.

I am sure there are radio stations in LA that have Latin and Mexican League baseball games on the radio.

The demographics of the area are changing. It is no different than here in St. Louis where just back in the 1970`s , there were advertisement signs in German because there was still a large population of German speaking "citizens" in the city. I guess all those businesses where unethical for doing such a thing????

The same thing is going on in LA, where a large amount of Spanish speaking people reside.

Since you don`t like the business decision of this owner, you have the option of not patronizing his establishment. Don`t buy Angels products or listen to the game. It is that simple.

I am assuming you do not own a business that has ever had to adapt to a situation like this. Because if you did, you would either have no business left, or have a different opinion about it.
