RE: English is our lanquage.
I agree.......if I was to go to a foreign country i'd be expected to speak the national language, yet the USA and it's friggin political correctness allows for other languages to dominate here......i.e. mexican/hispanic.
I can't tell you how many signs I have seen in spanish only...it literally makes me sick
NOTE: I am not against doing what you can for a better living, but if you expect a better life acclimate....that is all i ask

Nice video Kenihemi.
My Dad was an Italian immigrant. He never taught us (his children) to speak anything but English. On a side note he also fought in WWII - US Army.
Today I can speak, read and write in seven different languages.
English
British
Australian
South African
New Zealand
US American
And Southern
A little bit of Canadian ‘Eh

RE: English is our lanquage.
I am still a little behind on the Canadian... talkin about boots and stuff all the time... I like the Canadian Tuxedo from SuperTroopers (best opening scene of any movie ever... littering and.. littering and... littering and... smoking the reefer). There is this neighborhood in this city I worked as a medic in, a whole section of the state capital with nothing but signs in Spanish... needless to say I was lost quite often.

RE: English is our lanquage.
amen. and the more we keep politically correcting stuff, the more they wont learn. i sure as hell wouldnt go down to mexico not if i didnt speak spanish.
o yea and as for signs being in english, thats because the US is the dominant country of the world, our stuff is put on a pedestal everywhere. from music to movie stars, etc etc

RE: English is our lanquage.
dont you love it when you buy something and the instruction manual is as thick as a novel, then you open it up and theres only about 5 pages worth of information, its just printed in 30 different languages that makes it that thick?
Also, FFMedic, did you hear they are making a super troopers 2?
