Thread: Time to End the Spanish Imposition

Time to End the Spanish Imposition
Saturday, 30 August 2008
By John W. Lillpop

During the Spanish Inquisition, Jews, near Jews, closet Jews, those friendly to Jews, and those suspected of being friendly to Jews were subjected to harrowing episodes of intolerance and misery unequaled in history.

Until now, that is.

We the people have been hoodwinked by a coalition of civil rights scam artists, third world freeloaders, ACLU lawyers, liberal politicians, leftist educators, confused Catholics, and Marxist librarians working 24/7 to create a United States of Babel by eradicating the English language from our land.

The technical name for this travesty is the Spanish Imposition and it is evident everywhere.
One sees and hears Spanish imposed on an unwilling public at Sears and Target stores, fast food eateries, cemeteries, libraries, outlets for dispensing social services, banks, car washes, and all other public locations were two or more illegal aliens are likely to assemble. That means everywhere!

The Spanish Imposition has found it's way to voting ballots, and the presidential campaigns. Christopher Dodd and Bill Richardson, Democrat presidential candidates without a single clue between them, are even going to debate in Spanish just to prove that they are capable of delivering bilingual lies.

Things have gotten so crazy in Los Angeles that the Mexican national anthem is played before every game at Dodgers Stadium, otherwise known by liberals and illegal aliens as Chavez ravine.

Of course the Dodgers also play the Star Spangled Banner, provided someone remembers to remind the events coordinator. It is rumored that the Dodgers even arrange for the anthem to be performed in English on especially patriotic holidays like Memorial Day and Independence Day; however, that detail cannot be confirmed.

Those who speak English only are at a distinct disadvantage while trying to transact any of the following business in California:

( )Receive medical care at an emergency room;

( )Order a meal from a restaurant, fast food or higher end;

( )Arrange landscaping or gardening services;

( )Seek social services from a local, state, or federal agency;

( )Have one's home cleaned;

( )Get one's car washed; or

( )Attempt to communicate with garbage men, cable installers, handymen, roofers, and ICE employees.

Communications between English only and Spanish only speakers can be chaotic, confusing, and outrageously funny as the following dialogue from the 1975 British Comedy, Fawlty Towers, demonstrates.

AR is Alice Richards, an elderly English woman with an acute hearing problem and absolutely no Spanish language skills, while M is Manuel, a low-level hotel worker from Spain who speaks perfect Spanish, but whose English skills are minimal at best.

AR is trying to check in at the Fawlty Towers hotel and has been turned over to Manuel for processing.

AR: Now, I asked for a first class room with a bath and a sea view. I specifically asked for a sea view in my written confirmation, so please make sure I have it.

M: Que?

AR: What?

M: Que?

AR: K?

M: Si!

AR: See?

M: Nodding enthusiastically.

AR: K see? K see? What are you trying to say?

M: No, no, no! Que, what!

R: K what?

M: Si! Que what!

R: CK What?

M: Yes!

Ar: Who is CK What?

M: Que?

On and on it goes. Suffice it to say, Manuel was unable to help Alice Richards and she made it to her room only after being rescued by an English speaking hotel clerk.

Although the Fawlty Towers episode is very funny, real life confrontations between English and Spanish speakers is all too serious and frustrating to both sides.

Although I firmly believe that English should be the official language of the United States, I do not agree with some of my eccentric right wing friends who would make speaking Spanish in public a felony.

As a compassionate conservative, I believe that those guilty of a first offense should be charged with a misdemeanor. However, those caught speaking Spanish a second time should be arrested on felony charges, held without bail, and deported as soon as possible

That is unthinkably ridiculous, and anti-American. I don't watch baseball anymore. You know why? Because I'm tired of watching millionaire South Americans throw a ball around who received U.S. Citizenship for playing a sport "our national pastime". Excuse me, but if baseball is our national pastime, why are they playing someone else's national anthem?

I will never let a single penny of mine go into the cauffers of MLB, the non-profit, tax-free organization again.

How can they ban prayer in school, but allow this to happen? This is outrageous! I loved baseball as much as anyone else, and I still play it, but I refuse to watch south americans who were never even U.S. Citizens play an American sport. The amount of citizenship railroading in MLB is off the charts. It's gone too far.

I was at the grocery store awhile back, and in the produce section was an older Mexican woman with a small girl, likely her grand-daughter. The little was pointing to items and going, "look, that's a apple, and a orange...", and so on. So what does the older woman do? She stops the little girl and says, "No, no, no. Es manzana, es naranjo...". That really pissed me off, at least the little girl, who must have been only four or five at most, trying to speak the language and her own relative scolding her for not speaking in Spanish. I realli think these people are trying to prevent their children from assimilating, thinking that will force the rest of us to conform to their language and customs. Just in the tone of her voice, you could tell she was offended that the girl was using English, like it was some kind of ebonics or something.

Another time a middle aged woman knocked on my apartment door, and speaking in Spanish started a sales pitch for something. I stopped her, saying I did not speak Spanish, and she looked at me like, who the hell are you to live in CA and not speak Spanish. Then she handed me a flier written in English offering carpet cleaning. I said no thanks, I did not want any carpet cleaning, still trying to be polite, although I was somewhat peeved by her initial rudeness. She then turned away and made a 'tchk' kind of noise with her mouth and tongue, and under her breath I heard her say, "pinchi gringo", as she left. Can you believe these people? WTF is happening where you have to be insulted and derided for daring to not speak Spanish in your own country, to accomodate these so-called assimilated immigrants.

I am really getting sick of hearing nothing but Spanish everywhere I go, seeing cars driving around with Mexico license plates and being subjected to Mariachi music blasted at 180 decibels at 3 AM in the morning. The other day I saw a car with Mexico license plates, with a Mexican flag window sticker, a mini Mexican flag banner hanging from the rear view mirror and a Calvin and Hobbes window decal of a sombrero wearing character peeing on an outline of the U.S. and the words "La Migra".
