"I love my job. Retail is such a rewarding expirience. The only thing I love more than lagging behind 11 pm to fix displays messed up by 6-year-olds playing mortal combat in the aisles is hearing this man, my boss, ask me in such a non-condescending manner to speak the native language. I responded to dave like this. I speak English flawlessly. But I feel that the language simply does not do you justice. There is no sentence I can formulate in the English language that could adequiately convey que clase de estupido, imbecil, ignorante, malcriado, hijo de gran perra that you are The oldest city in this country is a city called St. Augustine in a place called Florida both established by Spaniards on a land that did not belong to them No one spoke a word of English. And up until a little while ago, half of this country was Mexico. When you tell me this is America, I should know because I speak Spanish The only difference between us is the origin of our conquistadores. Is that your jaw on the floor, Dave? Good morning, Papi I was born here too. Watched Jersey slowly turn brown as it grew to love pasteles at Christmas time respect our abuelas and fear the wrath of the almighty chancleta and people like me negotiated car deals and insurance policies, called DMV and PSE&G, because if we didn't, people like you would run circles of English around our exclusively Spanish-speaking parents My father cleaned floors with his blood my mother suffers from permanant pelo malo and to this day, bank tellers speak to me as if I only learned how to count that morning but I'm ok with that. While you grumble about how these dirty sp*cs ought to learn English or go home keep in mind this dirty sp*c has a 3.5 GPA this dirty sp*c is unafraid to say what may get him fired, because this dirty sp*c daydreams like Picasso who wasn't American either. Niether was Pablo Nierda Salvador Dali Simon Bolivar Jose Marti salsa marengue bachata saoco San Juan Quisqueya dulce de coco poesia agua bendita madres gritando Ave Maria ¡Mira! ¡Menso! ¡Vete tu pa'l carajo! Oh. You didn't understand what I said. Well, allow me to translate. Dave. I said. This is America. Speak what you d*mn well please." -Rich Villar

to gokart:

i'm gonna guess you didn't read the poem.

let me break it down for you:

i did not write this poem, but i believe it makes many good points.

"i speak english, flawlessly, but i simply do not believe the language will do you any justice"

i agree with this completely. i DO speak english flawlessly, yet people still complain about me and for what? because i am mexican.

i am here legal as well. i am not demanding anything but a cease in raciam.

any the way i know you didn't read it:

no where in the poem does it say anything about the USA being part of Mexico or bbeing Mexico.

if you will read it, it says "up until a little while ago, half of America was Mexico"

and then procedes to aknowledge that this land is, in fact, America and no complaints about it

this has absolutely no components of a poem. i don't expect you to understand why since clearly you are still in high school. when you take some comp. classes in college you will understand.

Good god willing, and the creek don't rise, Congress will sign that baby before they go on the campaign trail.

The Spanish empire is dead and gone, and Mexico lost a war with the United States in 1848. Nuff said.


Geography: Look on the map. See where it says 'United States'?
Anywhere within the territorial boundaries of the United States Of America including ALL 50 states, English is the preferred(and soon to be official)language. If you have a Real Problem with speaking english, there's several wonderful spanish-speaking countries to the south, or you can go to Spain, where they speak Real Spanish. This half-baked BS has been allowed to go on much much longer than is necessary or even prudent, apparently the governors in our southern states need to start setting up trailers in the major cities with free 'english as a second language' courses, along with an ICE screening station, and a bus standing by, with their famous 'sudden service' direct to Mexico and points south.

Welcome to Los Etados Unidos del America. If ya hate it that much, please just speak up,and we'll be happy to buy you a free bus ticket home. Thanks for visiting!

Support the US Border Patrol! And, god bless Mexico, may they recieve 'the enlightenment' and work double-time on building up their own economy. IN Mexico.
