57. Can't be bothered to learn????? How many foreign languages do I have
Edited on Mon Jun-11-07 11:02 PM by Blaze Diem
to learn to accommodate every group of people in the USA illegally !
This isn't like your homeland where your ethnicity has been the same for eons.
You see, my friend, here in My Country, the United States of America, we are all descendants of various regions around the world, except for the Native American Indian Tribes.

I'll try to make this simple to understand, and in my best English.
I don't believe that I, as a citizen of this nation, where the English language has been used as the common language for many many years, should have to learn the languages of all those who CHOOSE to come here, leagally or not.
Which language are you talking about?
And do you then believe that all people living in this country should "be bothered" to speak all languages, so as to accommodate all English and non-English speaking citizens and non-citizens?

Do YOU "bother" to learn languages of Russia, China, Korea, Thailand, etc. Now which language do you mean exactly? And which ones are of more or less value to you..Which one of all the languages spoken in this country, are YOU going to learn next?

What is your solution for pleasing all non-English speaking immigrants?
