Gringos who refuse to learn Spanish should go back to England?

Question

This is America not England!!!!

America was forged By Spanish-Mexicans, British, and also French. No to Anglo-monolingual policies! Stubborn Anglo-Monolinguals should get out and find exile in UK. LOL

Vivan los Estados Unidos de America!

Answer 1

LoL

and to Lakota. You dont' make much sense, Mestizo means mixed, that means more than one...so how can he go back to one country? Take a crack. pz.

Well on my opinion, it's always good to learn languages, you can communicate with more and more people. If you don't try you are only shutting yourself out.

Answer 2

I moved from north Florida to Miami Florida about a year ago and I am trying to learn how to speak Spanish, but this is a two way street! I am so sick and tired of hearing people get angry with me and demand to know why the heck I don't speak Spanish and I am trying. At the same time I don't understand where you get off saying to English speakers that we should learn your language because you don't want to put in the effort to learn English. This country is an English speaking country if you don't like it then you can shut up and move somewhere else that fits your requirements. If you want to speak Spanish that's one thing but you should learn English as well, you cant expect to move to a country that is an English speaking country and then say i refuse to learn your language so you have to speak mine and then when people start saying no you pull the discrimination card. Also if it was such a concern to you to live in a country that speaks all Spanish then maybe you should go back to your home country! Honestly though I don't think that anyone other than the Native Americans should have the right to b**** about the language used in America. I am sorry if I offended anyone but it just angers me to be told that I have to learn another language just to be able to hold a job or to function in any situation that involves human beings.

Answer 3

Why should I? (You would expect me to learn Spanish if I went to a country predominately speaking Spanish, wouldn’t you?)

Win the war, then you can decide what language everyone needs to speak.

But you guys (meaning any county pertinent to owning any current United States Territory) lost the war. Tough luck, English is the unilateral language of the United States.

Learn English, and I assume soon, you will have to!

And you probably want to be careful using the word “Gringos”, becasue you can open up a whole can of worms with racial slurs….

Answer 4

The spanish spoken these days isn't even actual spanish. Its Spanglish. A person can take classes and learn how to speak Spanish, try to talk to a person who is fluent in Spanish and not be able to hold a conversation.

Answer 5

This is the U.S. where English is the national language. You come here, you adjust and learn English. Guess we need to learn to speak Vietnamese, Chinese, French, Indian, etc., etc. We cant accommodate all you foreigners. Don't you know that English is the International Language.

Answer 6

No. Spanish is a "gringo" language, and you are a mestizo with "gringo" Spanish blood. Based on your logic, mestizos should go back to Spain.

To the girl named Pa0 below - I know what mestizo means, I knew the word before you were born, and his logic is that ALL white Americans are from England (one country). Immigration is an adult issue, music might be a better category for you.

Answer 7

First of all, Spanish is a beautiful language. I am NOT referring to that mess of crap that mexicans speak. People from SPAIN wouldn't be able to figure out THAT mess!

Second, the British occupied and settled this land. Build a bridge and get the F over it!!

Answer 8

Guess what champ, you lost the war, the French got bought out, and that means us English speakers control this territory now. If you refuse to learn English, may I heartily suggest you haul your sorry a.ss back to Mexico

Answer 9

Oh please. That's got to be the most ignorant thing I've ever seen posted on here. Mexicans are just jealous because they are too stupid to learn English. Sorry, but that's the truth!

Answer 10

Silly little boy!

If you REALLY followed through on your logic, you wouldn't want to speak the language of your first conqueror (Spain) either!

Now go read your history book chump!

Answer 11

How hateful. But let me guess...you get angry when racist types say things like, "Why don't Mexicans that can't speak English go back south of the border?" You're no better than them, my friend.
