Illegal immigrants boycott

[ree]

f5, spot on...except for the bullet part Mrs's net idea is right. We [supposedly] had all the illegals gathered up yesterday if you believe what the media told us.

Illegal immgrancy aside, the language thing really pisses me off. Why do we need voting ballots in anything other than English. English is not our official language, but if you look at naturalization requirements, it's implied that you should know enough English to pass the rest of the test in order be a citizen. Now we have municipalities getting all sorts of signs and forms made up in a multitude of languages further legitimizing the perspective that English isn't required.

Not that knowing other people's languages is bad, but you shouldn't have to learn someone else's just to stay here. If I were going to live in some other country for a while, I'm pretty damn sure I'd put in an effort to learn their language. The tax payers shouldn't have to foot the bill to cater the lazy anti-assimilators especially the ones here illegally.

This is a big issue of mine with any guest worker program. If we can't even get our citizens to speak English, how are we going to expect the same of people here on guest worker visas.

Melting Pot = Try to Assimilate, Do Now! ... which of course means that if(when) English speakers become a minority we're screwed.
