Re: What are these people saying???????????
I don't feel that anyone on this board, or anyone i know for that matter, are saying that non-English speaking citizens aren't welcome. We know that they love this country and some fight and die for it. BUT i still feel that this country, as is the case with almost every country in the world, should have just one national language that is supported in school.
This is not to say that we shouldn't do everything we can to help non-English speaking citizens to acclimate to the language. Remember it is not just Spanish that we are talking about. In my neck of the woods we have numerous Indian, Russian and Chinese workers in the technology field and everyone of them, that i know of, has learned English and isn't asking that the schools teach the subjects in all languages.
Just my 2C.
