In her case, I agree with her sentiment. That's because I want to make sure that the "English Only" crowd gets beaten with big branches until they speak English, not "Conversational Ichthyostegid". (At my old job, I would spend hours with similar morons, who'd refuse to talk to anyone who sounded even remotely Latino because "Ah wanna tawk to un Uhmericun." With some of them, I honestly wanted to ask "Ma'am, could you please take your grandson's penis out of your mouth until after we're done? I promise you that it'll still be there when we're done."
I always love how people who make these kinds of arguments are hiding behind patriotism. I've never understood how having a multi-lingual society could possibly be considered a bad thing.
I will refrain from making Texas jokes, but it's only sheer force of will that's making it possible.
Feel free to make the Texas jokes: I've lived here all my life, and the one surefire way to make these passive-aggressive bullies shut the hell up is to ridicule them as much as possible. I can state with authority that the biggest changes that have occurred in Texas in the last 25 years have been because we became an international laughingstock.
"Last I checked, we're in the United States, and in the United States, we clearly speak English. That language I don't understand, and therefore it makes me angry."
