Here, in Finland some minorities, such as the Swedish-Finns, the Sami, and the Gypsies have special rules/rights about education, and social services.
Swedish Finns have the right to education and service everywhere (everything from street signs to hospitals) in Swedish. Sami have the right to speak their native language in courts and sign contracts with it. Gypsies don't have to go to school if they don't want to (and get money for wearing traditional dresses). The largest minority is the Swedish Finns who comprise 6% of the population.
Now, the question is, should minorities in the US get the same treatment? State political persuasion also, please.
