Is this true about Home Depot all inside signs had to have the Spanish equivalent ????

It is the point.

Name one crop that can not be managed with machinery that is *required* for adequate human nutrition.

Lots of IFs, assumptions, emotions and lack of supporting facts in the above post.

Nice debate tactic.... When unable to defend your point, change the subject. What do religion and sports have to do with immigrants that fail to communicate in English.

That is a good reason for someone to personally decide to learn English. I just don't see how that would be a reason for someone else to get bent out of shape because some had not yet learned English or had decided not to. It should be a personal choice.

It is still true. How well do you understand the various ways you may gain citizenship?

I would agree. If someone who did not speak English and lived here, I would advise them to learn English as it would benefit them. I would not want to force them to do so, but I do believe it would be a good idea for them to decide to do so.

I also agree they should be here legally. However I believe that the problem is caused primarily by the US immigration laws.

I can understand your pride in the flag, after all I can comment publicly about my views on this subject in the US, something I would not be able to do everywhere, but why pride in not having any Spanish signs?

So you want to limit it to only crops "required" for "adequate" human nutrition. Since there are so many alternatives, that would eliminate all foods. Maybe time for a reality check.

Important to an individual living and working in much of the American society and economy, but I am not all that sure it is very important to the American economy.

How un-American. Killing native Americans, waging war to take lands, or making preemptive war to secure oil is not something you are suppose to talk about. It is not being a good American. At least it is not being a good American if you don't believe that we as citizens have a responsibility to be willing to question our government, not just accept it.

There is no continent called "America". Apparently, you didn't go to school at all.

You're also apparently unaware that there are several nations whose official names are "The United States of ...", of which the USA is only one. There are also the United States of Mexico, and the United States of Brazil -- and the citizens of the two are called "Mexicans" and "Brazilians" respectively. People who live in the United States of America are "Americans".

Get it now?

I'd love to listen to you trying to convince a Canadian that he's an "American". It would be even more entertaining to hear you trying to persuade him that he's wrong, when he tells you he isn't.

Well I talked to some young Canadians some years ago who could not seem to understand WHY Canada was not a part the USA!!! Ok, the French Canadians would NOT stand still for this not for one second. But the economies of Canada and the USA are so tightly bound, if we catch a cold, they come down with the flu. If they start to have real problems, we see the effects in the American economy.

This is the NAFTA argument. Reducing trade barriers between Canada/USA/Mexico opens up new opportunities, more jobs, EVERYWHERE.

That's obvious, N or S; see that wasn't so hard, was it?

obviously

that's so convoluted I am as confused as you are now. A person born in Africa is a European? Govt School for sure.

never heard of N and S America, eh?

accroding to your convoluted description then they are all Americans. they are all Americans, get it now? if you wish to be more descriptive then they are Mexicans, Brazilians, and US citizens

so now you're saying Canada is not in N America? Govt schools again.

And which immensely superior school do you believe you attended?

How old are you?

You've missed an entire piece of this discussion, including the point where I said that my remark was sarcasm. Set up your news reader to follow the thread.

I suppose that one example is indicative of a trend, eh?

Neither did mine. As a result, I'm pretty happy that there were merchants who displayed some information in other languages (which, in case everyone's forgotten, was the original subject of this discussion - Home Depot's Great Sin).
