Do you deny that the reason this whole idea of the state dictating english as 'official' has come up has been a recent wave of anglo-centric rage against the presence of spanish?

... and helped along from there by speakers of arabic flying aeroplanes into buildings, for sure, as so many other agendas of the more anal retentive Herrenvolk persuasion have been helped ..... but originating with a distaste for spanish, a desire to paint it as 'foreign'

Can ballots be in multiple languages? How about the government hiring individuals within the government that can speak multiple languages so they can understand what some residents are saying so they can better serve them? Is that OK or can only official government communications be in English?

extelecom...

You should be able to see by now that marcos does not miss the point - either he understands the point quite well or he is dumber than a rock. He wants to pretend to not understand, so he can continue to obfuscate and misdirect everything in order to continue to make his pet arguments over and over, including the absurd ones like the "occupied territories", as if the hispanics were palestinians.

He obviously loves to argue, but his responses can apply only to one line of thinking which no one here espouses - the complete suppression of Spanish out of either hatred or fear. Both suppositions are absurd so he has to continue to twist your answers around to make them say things you did not say.

I have ignored his inane foolishness.
