In other words, you don't believe in freedom of speech.

Nice.

BTW, the Founders didn't believe that they had the right to tell people what language to speak. I guess they understood the meaning of the word "freedom".

I would have loved to see the founding fathers tell the original inhabitants of this country they had to speak English, since they were the immigrants. At that time 'survival' was formost in their minds. And thank God they did. It was the Indians gave them the freedom to survive and speak their own language. But that was a long time ago, the way we live now is very different, in case you haven't noticed. Immigrants have the right to 'assimilate,' not squat here, and start telling everybody else to cater to their ways. Get it?
