The comment to Arnold by Pilar Marrero saying that spanish speaking
immigrants are too busy working and don't have time to learn English
made me angry. Once again they are making excuses for not assimilating
to our culture. The immigrants from other countries are busy and hard
working too, but they learn English as the immigrants have allways done.
Arnold is right that there is too much Spanish tv, radio, and newspapers
available for them and they don't have to learn English. In Nevada and
Las Vegas there are several Spanish speaking tv stations and radio programs. Everywhere you go there are signs in Spanish and people
speaking it. The manager, handy man, and house keeper all speak
spanish. They also speak perfect English but switch to Spanish in
front of the English speaking residents. I was bought up that it was very rude to speak in another language in front of people who did not speak
it.

This is why we have to make English the official language. If we don't
we will all have to be learning Spanish some day to get a job, etc. I'm
tired of the pandering to illegals.
