Trump declared English as the official language of the U.S….Why is the Providence police chief giving press conferences in Spanish?

[Unkotare]

I grew up in the 80’s here in South Mexifornia [sic], we never had ESL students…

Since at least 1968. You never get tired of being wrong, loser.

 

[Unkotare]

.…The few who weren’t Americans and couldn’t speak English were too ashamed to speak Mexican out in public. ...

Absolute bullshit.

 

[Unkotare]

...
They try to pretend they’re ‘Spanish’ ....

No, they don't.

 

[Unkotare]

...

The difference is they were not raised to be xenophobic.

Were you?

The difference is they were not raised to be xenophobic.

None of those countries suffers from the extent of Illegal Immigration that the U.S. does.

It is convenient and accurate to style the U.S. as Nova Europa.

A bastion of Western (European) culture and religion and traditions and societal norms modified for our own use.

Members of other cultures are welcome here provided that they do not overrun and displace that of Nova Europa.

To the extent that large numbers of "others" pose a risk of such displacement a degree of xenophobia is warranted.

In the common parlance, "phobia" means "to fear" or "to be wary of", which is merely a sensible reaction to a threat.

In the U.S., for example, there is an entirely justified "wariness" about a flood of Meso-Americans and Islamic domains.

So the Federal government finally got around to declaring an Official Language... helps to force eventual assimilation.

No Big Deal.

Unnecessary.

Unnecessary.

Because globalist pukes say so?

Because all of American history says so, loser.

There are fewer deaf people in RI than Spanish speaking people. If English is the official language, why provide a sign language interpreter?

Nobody sane and not a purple hair globalist thinks we should accommodate those who shouldn’t be here. That’s just plain lib shit.

Now you hate deaf people too?

 

[Kondor3]

Unnecessary.

But great fun and a good idea regardless.

Because all of American history says so, loser.

That was then... this is now... conditions and times change...

 

[BrokeLoser]

Because all of American history says so, loser.

American history also says core Americans have fucked themselves HARD by way of suicidal empathy. New times baby…conform or **** straight off.

 

[Unkotare]

American history also says core Americans ...

There's no such thing as "core Americans." There are just Americans and non-Americans.

 

[my2¢]

Why would he need to reach out to Mexico’s people if the murders happened in Rhode Island? What does Trumps declaration mean if our officials are not required to follow and adhere to such a declaration?

Even if Trump had the power to declare a national language, it wouldn't prohibit Rhode Island and Providence from conducting their own business in any language they darn well pleased.

 

[braalian]

So the Federal government finally got around to declaring an Official Language...

No, they didn’t

Trump randomly “declaring” it is meaningless

 

[rosends]

The only war that a president can declare is a thumb war. But anyone can do that, so...um...yeah.

 

[BrokeLoser]

No, they didn’t

Trump randomly “declaring” it is meaningless

Like the Kenyan “declaring” DACA to be something meaningful?

 

[Kondor3]

No, they didn’t

Trump randomly “declaring” it is meaningless

Ohhhh... so... Executive Orders have no force at-law?
