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."

Make English America's official language- and then enforce penalties for people who can't spell on protest signs.

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.

Speaking of Texas jokes, I'm wondering what the sign says behind him... "Texas.. Not a Mexican Colony"?

"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."

I shall also deduct a point for the lack of a period or exclamation point.

Thank you, Texas, for always giving us reason to smile. :D
