 I was driving towards the Greek Theater in Los Angeles a few weeks ago, and I passed through some stores that had 4 different languages!  I told myself, "This is one of the many reasons why I love about Los Angeles"


What is so good about living somewhere where everyone speaks a different language? That isn't good, that is chaos. You can't even communicate with the people around you.

If you want to move to our country, ADOPT OUR LANGUAGE!!!! Every other immigrant in the past has. Unfortunately, Latinos think that they are better than everyone else and that everyone has to accomodate them. They are racists.

IF you u really wanna talk like then fine but be a little smarter with ur comments
1) speak "our language" a language that pilgrims spoke when they left THEIR COUNTRY to find a better life.  A new world where they can speak freely and follow they own beliefs.  The American language is one that came from another country. 

So last i checked they DIDNT ADOPT THE NATIVE AMERICAN PEOPLE'S LANGUAGE(s) to help belong, but instead took over and ended enforcing people to leave or do what they did.

2) I dont really know what type of insecurities u have but its starting to show pretty brightly right now.  For a person to come in to this country and just forget the language they were brought with is very hard.  If a person down the street wants to speak spanish, french, german.....etc, thats their right being in this country.  Now to work and stuff, yes it is nessesary to speak that majority language but dont for one think that a person needs to forget where there from or who they are just cuz little pricks like you are scared of diversity.

3) Technically America hasnt even declared english to be its official language and with spanish or spanish creole being the second most spoken language in country along with many other following it is very ignoroantog u to seriously "ADOPT OUR LANGUAGE" just cuz ur limited in language and prob in culture doesnt mean you can seriously belive that you are more dominant


So instead of saying that LATINOS think they are better than everyone else, which is completely false.
IT IS VERY SIMPLY PUT THAT LATINOS AND EVERYONE ELSE OUT THERE WITH A BRAIN JUST KNOW THAT WE ARE BETTER THAN YOU

I agree with Arnold Schwarzenegger. He is totally right you can't live in a country and not speak the main langauge, fuckin' parasites only want the good side but the bad side is for someone else.

It's the same over here with immigrants.  ::)

You're acting like all the immigrants in the past adopted the English language so easily.  People were also having these discussions back in the day with the Italian immigrants, and pretty much every other immigrant in the past.  And wow, chaos?

Schwarzenegger's right 'bout what he said. They live in the States they might as well learn to speak tha' language, because no one forces them to come over here. But if they decide to do so they should at least learn tha' language, not give up their culture or the Spanish language, just immigrate. If I go into a store they got two signs one's in English the other in Spanish and by doing shit like that the Latinos don't have to learn English they just get by, and that's just fucked up. It's the government's fault 'cause they don't show any effort to immigrate the Latinos, by giving them privileges, like signs in Spanish, bunch of TV shows in Spanish, Spanish teachers and so on, the Latinos don't have to learn tha' language and can still live here. I mean would you learn tha' language if you could live here without being forced to adapt tha' language? I don't think so, it wouldn't make sense. So in my opinion tha' government is to blame for this bullshit situation right now.



I think you're thinking about the word assimilate.  A business can do whatever they want because they do what's best for business.  I was driving towards the Greek Theater in Los Angeles a few weeks ago, and I passed through some stores that had 4 different languages!  I told myself, "This is one of the many reasons why I love about Los Angeles"  In the end, many people that own shops will try their best to get the maximum number of clients, you gotta do what you gotta do.  The TV Shows in Spanish are making money, you got soap operas in Spanish that are getting more ratings than many of the prime time shows on major networks.  Spanish teachers?  What do you mean by that?



The entire thing is being blown out of proportion. 

Learning tha' language is immigration not assimilation. They'd assimilate if they would give up their culture and would live like "Americans" if you know what I'm sayin'. I did not say they should assimilate, but they should immigrate. Aight tha' stores make money with that, true. But you have the choice either you take the money and leave the Latinos as they are, that's fine with me, or you make them learn English by not giving them the privileges they have right now. 'Cause everybody complainin' 'bout the Latinos not learning English n' stuff but no wonder. The majority on tha high school on my block is Latino. And by Spanish teachers I mean teachers, that pretty much teach exclusively in Spanish. The Latinos get extra classes, in Spanish only. So there you have it, they can go to school in the States without learning the language. And instead of pointing tha' finger at the Latinos the government should do some changes around here, especially concerning education.


That's gotta be a private school because they took out bi-lingual classes years ago.  Unless you're talking about a Foreign Language class lol.  What some do take is ESL classes, which teaches the students English.

Not only a problem amongst Latinos. Around LA area there are many communities - Korean, Chinese, Iranian, Filipino, Armenians (a part of which i am), where many first generation immigrants don't bother learning English because they can get all services they could possibly need in their native tongue. I immigrated to the states when i was 11, and i am ashamed to say that by the time i was in 8th grade i was speaking better English than some of my American-born classmates

  • don status, bitch
first and foremost i'm bilingual

i was raised SPANISH (not mexican) and we strongly believe that you should hold on to your roots while embracing the surounding culture you live in.

which means i have ABSOLUTELY no sympathy or respect for indignant mexicans who refuse to learn english. straight up. at work i'm tired of mexicans coming in to my work and complaining to me that my white employees don't know spanish. that pisses me off and i tell them every time , that they need to stop blaming them and blame themselves for not learning the national language. i would never go to italy or germany and demand that every one spoke english, that would be very bitch made IMO. so  again i refuse to show sympathy for mexicans/latinos in general who stay confortible in their ways.

seriously it's a spit in the face to latinos like me and my family who have taken the time to learn the native toungue and abide by all immigration laws.  granted their are mexicans who come from secluded farm villages who don't know any better, i'll show sympathy for them, but it's the ones who try to get this country to cater to them, it's sickening.

You should know English if you live in America or UK but you can use your own language. I just think its rude when your in the presence of people that cant speak it.

It's rude to talk Spanish in a English country you know people won't understand it well so they feel awkward about it.

  • "u gotta give respect to get respect"
i think that people should have the choice to do whatever the fuck they want. if they refuse to learn english, itll develope into a problem they gonna have. i dont think you can tell people what to do...they gonna see for themselves that it wont work out this way. but if people keep telling them: learn english or get the fuck outta here!, they are not gonna do it, simply becuz its impolite and ruthless to adress people that way.you are lucky to be born into your great country with all the possiblities you have, people who immigrate  into your country do it mostly becuz their country sucks balls...so have som respect and snap out of your racist trip!
