I hear what you are saying Shangrala. I am sort of double minded on the subject... Part of me understands that it would be helpful for those who don't speak English...But then I'd get upset when I've gone to a store and the check out clerk or those who worked in the store could barely speak English....And I'd have to say the same thing over and over and over....trying hard to be patient.

Is sort of a hard subject... Because I believe everyone should be treated equally...But then I married a guy from the Middle East....And when we would have parties at out home, not one person would speak English..........I did not know what folks were saying the whole evening.........They were not respectful enough to speak English around around me, yet I had to be respectful of them, because that is my nature.......... They all could speak English, they just chose not to... Which in my humble opinion is very rude.

I have since divorced so I am not around that anymore..... So all I can say is I tolerate things more now.... Am always respectful to others, those who speak English and those who don't......I try not to let those things "bug" me..... We are are human and we all have feelings.......Gosh I'd gone overboard on this.. lolllllllllllllllllll
