That "study" is bull huckey. It looks at second and third gen children of spanish speaking immigrants today. That means they were born here and went to American schools.
Youre damn right they better speak English.
Many of them and most of their parents do not want to. They dont feel the need and never wanted to come to America as it existed and be American. They wanted to come here but bring all aspects of their old culture with them. Thats why we now have so many spanish language TV channels. Thats why you hear cars driving around blaring that goofy oom-pah norteno music. My g/f is an elementary school teacher in san diego. Some of the schools she has been assigned to are 3/4 spanish speaking in the lower grades. If you have an American, English speaking child, what kind of education do you think they will get next to them when all the teachers energies have to be focused on bringing them up to speed in basic communications?
Some will say its great for the American kids because at least they will know spanish.
Dumb.
Lowest denominator.

That guy he was insulting has been in the US for 40 years, owns four restaurants in that town employing dozens of people. What has that racist ever done or accomplished?

If white people are such a massive problem, the real question is: why is he even here? Why did he move to a predominately white country if white people are such horrible disgusting sub-humans, like the neoliberals are trying to make us out to be?



Who said white people are a massive problem?


Why are you here why did your ancestors come here?


Who accused white people as being horrible disgusting sub-humans?


Where did neoliberals come into the discussion? Whatever a neoliberal is.





To me this sounds like a crafted response intended to stir up hate and anger by using negative words and name calling. Its a twisted argument that tries to make the victim the bad guy. Why would anyone want to do this? As if I didn't know.

I cant imagine why anyone would tell you to back to your country without provocation. What were you doing that pissed them off?
Consider that line of insult was the first that came to mind. When you **** people off they might belittle you for your haircut, your age, maybe wearing a jersey of an opposing sports team.

You apparently don't watch CNN or MSNBC or any nightly "news".

Another parent heckled to the Hispanic parent, "why didn't you stay in Mexico"? The whole entire room which is full of parents many being white were alarmed and triggered by one of the parents snarky question. At the end of the video the Hispanic guy stated that the united states is the best country in earth and that's why he came here. Sadly the video in the link does not show the full story, and again activist journalism sensors the whole story and the truth into a snippet.



When I take a further look an analysis of this meeting. It seems appears to me that globalization within America seems to be a big problem. Not economically, but socially as well and is causing communities to slowly tear each other apart.

Yes, surely this is a brand new phenomenon.

We shape many other country’s government all the time and have for years. Follow the money.
Too bad we don’t concentrate on the drugs vs the hungry people that come in. We probably freeze 99% of the corona virus. That there tells you we can stop what we want by arm twisting any govt into making sure that shyte never leaves their shores.

Once when I asked a person to put out their cigarette on public transit (smoking is prohibited). I was in the right about that and was firm about that. Gave me the ugliest death look when she snbbed out her cig and told me to go back to my country. I told her I was from California (this was in NYC). She said, well go back to California and told me F-you. I returned the favor and said F-you back, and added the same phrase in Mandarin, Cantonese, Taiwanese and Spanish to boot!

Yeah, well I told off a woman on the subway in NYC when she gave me the nonsense about foreigners and told to go back where I came from, when I asked her to put out her cigarette (and insisted firmly). Quite satisfying really.

And I'm sure they all rued the day they came across you and said the "wrong thing".

This Mexican gentleman has a son who was the victim of bullying in school, something that happens to kids regardless of ethnicity. Bullies will use whatever is in the bully toolbox and that just happened to be the kid's ethnicity. He then decided that he was going to make it about what he wanted it to be about, racism. He is full of crap just like probably everyone else in that room was.

The "bad guy" here called him out on it. It was not smart because the leftist lynch mob is now out in full force. They are going to destroy his life and regardless of what moron lefties think, he doesn't deserve it.
