Went to Geno's Cheese steak's since they were in the news about this sign.

Thought this was hilarious. Only Philly's Latino population took offense to this, not the chineese or any other populations. Why is that? The sign reads"This is AMERICA when ordering SPEAK ENGLISH". The Chinese guy in front of me even blurted out in English "whiz". For those of you who know nothing about this Cheese steak place you have 4 options; no cheese, American cheese, whiz cheese, or provolone cheese. That's why the owner who by the way can't really speak English the best is so defiant. The owner is a Italian immigrant who had to learn English to even do business in Philly. He doesn't know what is so hard about saying "in English" one of the 4 options. I drove over an hour just to eat there to support this guy, and the cheese steak was awesome.
