a large number of English only supports get angry at even the use of another language

But
Most of the great Univerisities require that the highschool applicant have a minimum of four years of a foriegn language....or else it is mandatory for entering college freshmen.....

Do you feel that nationwide those who are against any language but english (or kings english) would also be people who don't speak another language or maybe not as college educated......
What do you think?

No not really. I think they want everyone to be a clone of them!

Because of English, many native Americans are losing their language and their culture.

A culture is a very important part of ones self and very few have a culture only of America.

I think they see it more as a political slap at the 363 other languages spoken in America.

Funny that not long ago German missed by one vote to become the official language of the US!
