First, let me say I am NOT a racist and despise racism in ALL forms. That being said, first and gotten out of the way, I was just wondering what people thought of the following. How everything in America seems to be asking "English or Spanish" nowadays. I agree with Hispanic immigrants right to keep their own culture, but if you plan on LIVING here longer than a tourist, you should at LEAST have enough respect for our culture to just learn the language. Is that ignorant of me to say that the question English or Spanish shouldn't be so widespread here? If they don't even have that much respect for our culture coming here to TRY and fit in a little slightest bit, why bend over backwards to accomodate them? If that makes me sound ignorant, please tell me why. Someone.
