They need to learn to speak our language...

So I am sitting at work today and I run across an email in our customer service mailbox that really points to the idiocy of today's society. Let me first start by saying my ethnicity or race has no involvement in the following view. If you must know I am Hispanic. I agree that Naturalization needs works and I also feel that people who choose to come to the United States should make an earnest attempt to understand and effectively communicate with others as it should be for anyone going to any other country and wanting to establish themselves in that country. However that doesn't mean that you don't deserve the right to be here until you can speak the dominant language. That shouldn't deny you the opportunity to live the American dream of providing for your family and better your life and the life of your family.

I work for a company that does business internationally and offers bi-lingual and starting multi-lingual support to its customers. As an active participant to in this business you receive a web page that allows you sell services to customers in any country that we operate in and in those languages we support. So when an event promotion email goes out and includes bi-lingual messages, English first mind you, why are you so willing to respond to the company and copy other people to say "WHEN ARE YOU GONNA MAKE THEM LEARN TO SPEAK OUR LANGUAGE TO BE HERE AND WORK HERE" and then one of the copied parties also replies all to your response to include a similarly written message.

Why do you choose to participate in an international company that you know operates this way and you still want to basically spam customer service with your bigot opinions. Then stop doing business with us. Cancel your accounts and services and try to find another company that only works and speaks your language. Stop benefiting from people on your sales force who help to make you money that you show this distaste and disgust for.

I experience this in every aspect of life. School, work, charities, children's activities. Why do you bother to take part in any organization that operates against your beliefs. You can't join something knowing how it functions and it expect it to change how it does business to match your needs. You sought that organization out.

I fully expect to see people who disagree and I welcome your perspective. I value your opinion and hope to hear from you. I also expect to see random obscenities and unfounded comments. Go for it. You are simply giving others the chance to see my perspective better by irrationally giving a different point of view.

The basis of so many perceptions in the United States fail to appreciate whom gave us this right and opportunity to live how we do today. Defined not by a race, ethnicity, gender, sexual preference, disability or any other defining characteristic to societal standards dies for us by serving in the military or provides services that anyone of us feels we are above doing. They are people who believe in the right that they can do more with their life to benefit the lives of those around them.

I don't think only black, or hispanic or white people milk the welfare system. People milk the welfare system. The ghettos  are not only black, or hispanic or white . Trailer parks aren't only filled with  black, or hispanic or white people. Everyone lives the same. Social economic classes see all people at every level.

Find something you are capable of, excel at it, make you and your surroundings better off but do it not at the expense of others. Otherwise I will call it like I see. Your an idiot and a bigot.
