We're living in Orwell's 1984
Yup. ***** had no business berating these guys. They are entitled to speak any language they want.
I agree, but those of us who speak English are also entitled to understanding who it is that we come into any form of contact with here. Them guys know that everyone around them will be speaking another language and so why can't the guys learn more about what they are willing to be exposed to since you know that they are not originally from here to begin? Why is it so much to ask that people not originally from here try to open themselves up to the American way of life if America is where they choose to reside?
I have a female cousin who got married to a guy from Nicaragua and because they live here in the U.S. he eventually learned English. One of my most favorite actors is from Australia, Matt Passmore that is, but when you watch him here, you would never know of his origins
until an interview is done. In other words, even after mastering an American accent, his Australian accent never went anywhere which may be my most favorite thing about him, his decision to meet us halfway.
God bless you and him and my family and everyone else who is open minded always!!!

P.S. And before you say that we here in the states could take the time and learn more about what is outside of our homeland. Well, should we ever leave our homeland for any reason, just that is what we will do.
