True story: My mother taught an immigrant from Senegal English as second language. He's a very intelligent man whose native tongue was Portuguese Creole and was self-educated as a mechanic. He is one the kindest men I've ever met. Before retiring from the local fire department I was able to convince our Human Resources staff to employ him as a mechanic to repair and rebuild fire trucks. He's the 1st guy at work and the last one to go home.

Tough titties Fox news-gal wannabe. In America people can speak any language they want. You should be <i>proud</i> of a nation that welcomes people from all over the world.

When people in some Little Italy neighborhood speak Italian, it's all charming and preserving their culture. But someone speaks Spanish in the grocery store and the Tealiban is all "self-deport before I stand my ground and shoot your ass".
