I'm sure Houston, New York, Miami, etc are no less asshole like. Get away from the major metroplexes. You'd probably complain how boring and non eventful life was.

And this is just too good of a set up to ignore. It's a shame that your wife doesn't eat meat, because I have a sausage I'd like her to check out.
Boom! Yeah, I went there.

I've been to about 45 states in the United States, been to Costa Rica, Canada, Germany, Afghanistan.
Last one excluded I dislike america the most, mainly California I liked the smaller towns better up in Norfolk Virginia was a favorite. I like quite. I like peaceful. Hell I don't even mind a bit of noise now and then or even a fight here and there. But the constant inconsideration is a grind.

This! What the fuck, people?
Who cares if they're foreign? That's not the issue here. The issue, at best, is that they're being inconsiderate, which I gotta tell you, isn't just the purview of other races. I really don't get why so many of the comments here are zeroing in on a facet of this story that isn't that important to begin with.

I am no patriotic 'Murican, but damned if I am going to sit by and allow the Spanish culture turn the country in their sway. It is not our fault that Mexico is a horrible place to live. Perhaps they should attempt to make Mexico a better place to live instead of running away like cowards.
Says the guy sitting comfortably in the US. It's funny because most of our ancestors moved here from other countries because their countries sucked. They helped to shape the US into what it is by adding a little of their culture and language.
Also, what is this objection to speaking Spanish anyways? If you don't want to then don't. I speak Spanish all the time, you going to pack me up and ship me back to Mexico, I think not considering I was born here :p

Ah, but even as Esq stated, we do not have to be against foreigners to be against them attempting to turn the country toward their sway.
I have nothing against them personally, and I would help them cross the border if necessary, but I do disagree with our lives needing to change for their benefit. I do not need to learn their language, I do not give a shit about their culture. They can want to be citizens of the country without having to inform others that unnecessary things need to change for their benefit.

No need to learn their culture or language. Not all foreigners are here illegally though and for those who are here legally, this is their country as much as it is ours. So you're free to ignore their culture and language and they're free to an extent to ignore yours as well. I think if you're young enough to learn English you should, and if you're not you should work in places where you don't need to speak English.
As for my comment that you quoted, I was just saying I think it's funny that you call them cowards for running away while you live here never knowing suffering they may have lived.
You definitely shouldn't have to learn Spanish. You should be able to live anywhere in the US and be able to work and shop and whatever without knowing a word of Spanish. I will agree to that. But other people can still speak Spanish all around you just because they feel like it and I don't see how that's a problem. If that made sense.

What makes you think I have not experienced suffering in this country? Not everyone born in America can have privileged lives. There is no need to go into the details that I have suffered plenty.

Ofcourse it bloody does! If you move to a different area you don't have to put up with that shit. Why the fuck would you stay in a place you don't like? You have every right, just as much as the next person to move where you like. There's nothing unsympathetic about that. Shame on you for suggesting so.

We have the exact same problem. 'Cept our problem is with people who not only come from shithole countries, but they bring their fucked up religion along with them. We have "Muslim areas" just like I imagine you have "Hispanic areas". Guess what dude! You don't have to live there! Sure, it's sad whenever I drive through those places and see what's happened to them. I don't want any more of my country to be warped by this problem. But fuck. Get your priorities right. What am I going to do if I inadvertently moved to an area like that? Stay in the same place and defiantly try to change every fucker living around me? Yeah, because that's going to work. No. I fucking move. Like any other sensible person would.
