Speaking a foreign language in PUBLIC does not bother me as long as it is not too LOUD or obnoxious or about me. Speaking 2-1/2 languages (wish I could speak/understand 10) is an asset in my book, even thou I never use 1-1/2 in public. As a teen, I was talked about while standing in front of a mother and daughter while on a public transportation carrier. They were talking about my clothes and appearence negatively not realizing that I understood every word they were saying. I spoke in their tongue "excuse me please" and both mouths dropped open realizing their error. Bother me? maybe a little, but speaking in PUBLIC can have its consequences. Steve

It reminds me of an experience I had. I was standing in a grocery store line in front of three Latino men who were discussing me, assuming I did not understand the language. Fortunately, their comments were flattering and not disrespectful or crude. I couldn’t resist responding. The expression on their faces was definitely a ‘Kodak’ moment.

Default race mixing is genocide

[SIZE=2] It's absolutely critical to our survival that Mexicans do NOT learn English. Racial survival (avoiding genocide) depends on ethnic and cultural separatism.

By far the biggest disaster in all of humanity is race mixing. We can survive catastrophic wars. We can survive tyrannical governments and religions. We can not survive race mixing.

Uh, does someone want to go ahead and MODERATE THIS BOARD!!!, or should I contact my local branch of the FBI so we can use this forum to stake out neo-nazis and prosecute future hate crimes. Thanks for the enlightened perspective JDPrescott, AKA David Duke

WTF?!

First off, you yourself are a product of race mixing.......unless you come from an extremely long line of incestous unions, which is more then a remote possiblity given your rant

And anyway what you just spouted is the most unAmerican crap I have read on these boards (and that is saying something!). The United States is founded on legal immigration. Of all colors, faiths, and backgrounds. It is what makes us strong, and interesting.

Good idea killer! Go to the FBI and turn yourself in for conspiracy to commit genocide.

Sounds like a bit of the old all-American narrow minded bigotry you've got there. If being American is denying your racial and cultural heritage, count me out.
