Why is the Spanish language everywhere in the southern U.S.?

barry_maciel

I live in central California...Salinas to be exact,..In this area I'm the minority......and so is the English language.If it was French,or some other language that at least sounded good it would not be as bad to listen to........but Mexican is so damn ugly to hear.This mix of several Mexican languages and Spanish,makes me sick to my stomach............I need an AK and about 10 million rounds

as long as they are here legally, they have freedom of speech. go for it. i don't mean to say that illegals are not free to speak their own language, i mean they should not be here to do it.

Why can you learn Spanish?
Are you so stupid?
Mother focker, Son of a beatch.

Soon in no far future. Spanish language will be the language of 50% of us.

... OIGA USTED!

Perhaps you must learn to speak spanish ... In all America more People speak spanish than english ... You're wrong ... Spanish is the dominant language ...

I am American too . I'm from Peru in south America thus I'm American like you.

U.S.A. is not only America, We all are America From Canada and Alaska to Argentina and Chile including Caribbean Islands.

sorry for my bad English ... but in America Latina se habla EspaÃ±ol y con mucho orgullo

Viva Latinoamerica!!!!!!!!!!!! VIVA LA Ã‘ ....

Because the US government keeps Kissing there ASSES instead of doing EXACTLY what they should do MAKE ENGLISH our national language. No government documents in Spanish, No drivers exams in Spanish, No Job Applications in Spanish No Spanish listing in stores or on Menus. STOP making it EASY give them two choices and Not one more. Either Learn English or GET OUT thats it.

Have you not been reading the news? There are millions and millions of ILLEGAL immigrants from Mexico living in the USA.

Guess what? You're tax money is going to support them. They can't afford to pay their hospital bills when delivering a child but that child is automatically a US citizen. Then the parents need welfare to raise the kid.

What other country gives citizenship automatically to children of illegal immigrants? This loophole needs to be closed.

I'm all for LEGAL immigration. Mexicans should apply and wait in line just like everyone else.

Well when the majority of the people speak a foreign language, it,s going to change somethings. do we really want foreigners driving around not knowing where they are going.? at least with the signs they know where they are.

Well because Southern U.S. is close to the border of Mexico, so you will have to see them. And also because, Southern U.S. belonged to Mexico, and when the U.S. took it away from Mexico, some of the Mexican people stayed.

Just remember all souther U.S. was a part of mexico, Florida is a spanish word even. Maybe you should move to England that's where english came.

Well i have to said that you are so stupid, Is just a language, I'm of Puerto Rico, And so if you dont want spanish just , you have to deal with it!!! ok it clear to you. We are going up and your language is going down!!!!

Florida has a large Cuban population, I think its too late for Florida, they've already taken over.

English is the language of business and science, world wide. Educated Spanish language speakers know that and have learned English as a second language. Your plane mates were talking to each other, not you. The undocumented are not responsible for everything that's wrong with this country.

idontkno

it should be English only

The Spanish language has always been used in the Southwest--an area settled by Spaniards, you ding-bat!!!!
Also, there are many, many more LEGAL Hispanics in this country than illegals. You, dear friend, are a first class racist! Why do you let other people's language bother you? I can't stand southern accents, but it doesn't "drive me crazy".

I think that the "powers that be" behind Dubya's administration/presidency have decided that the American people were getting too smart about some issue (the war?? who knows....), so they started waving a red herring in the form of "illegal aliens" and "problem", in our faces. (Every rich, Republican, person I've ever worked for had an "illegal" to care for their children and/or house)

Have you ever thought that some of them are legal residents. And some others are even U. S. citizens? so.. you are telling me you are agains some citizens form your own country. Or do you think some citizens have more value than others? That doesn't sound to agree with the Constitution of your country.
I am sorry to say it, but you should learn Spanish. The English ddescriptions may disappear. The wouldn't be below the spanish ones! so.. you... will get lost.. and die of starvation because you won't be able to go into a McDonald's to buy something.
Future looks so threatening to you, right? Move to Australia. It is harder for Latinos to get there. If you hate Latinos... go away! I know it is your country.. but... you can't take them out. Then leave!

Well, you are wrong to think that only illegals cannot speak English. My grandmother was born in Texas as was her mother and yet my mother could not speak English until they went to school to learn it. They brought it home for the others to learn. They were all legal. But if it is used in the house and they can get by working and reading signs in Spanish, why should they? There is nothing to motivate them. And even though you heard only Spanish spoken on the plane, doesn't mean they don't know English. They just don't want you listening to their conversations.

Sad Monkey

mexicans.. no offense or anything, but its the truth.. mexico used to own florida and california, but when U.S won the land, mexicans didnt leave and thats why there are countries with spanish name

This is what a mexican who lives in MEXICO thinks:

1. You are right, if english is the official language in your country all the inmigrants must learn it and speak it in the US.
2. Think in the possibility that not every people you see in the Florida is ILLEGAL, there are many reasons why Florida has many latin people: the cuban people, tourists on Miami beach with passport and visa and completely legal mexican and latin people (many actors and singers) who are rich and have enough money to buy grounds or houses.
3. Finally, if I go to the USA, I would go with my documents and as a tourist, I would travel in an airplane not in a "pollero" bus or truck not swimming in the river, not scaling and jumping the walls.
4. I f I had someday to live in your country I would ask for permission and I would promise to addapt to your lifestyle. Including language and celebrations.

it tourns out that mexicans came before the north americans, thuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.......................

Negrodeus

cause you idiots would rather drag black people to death behind your pickup trucks than drag illegal immigrants back to Mexico....

WHAT'S THE MATTER? ARE YOU JUST MAD BECAUSE YOU ARE STUPID AND CAN'T LEARN SPANISH.THIS COUNTRY WILL ONE DAY BE TAKEN OVER BY SPANISH PEOPLE AND I THINK THAT'S GOOD. I AM AMERICAN AND I THINK THAT ALOT OF AMERICAN'S ARE LAZY AND THE SPANISH ARE THE ONES DOING THE WORK THEY WON'T DO. YOU NEED TO GET OVER IT.YOU HAVE NO LIFE?!!!!

effin drunk

Maybe you should learn Spanish.

Spain owned Florida and much of the southeast before England did. The influence can be seen everywhere, in our buildings, town names, and language. Also, we are closer to other Spanish-speaking countries and areas (including Puerto Rico, a Spanish-speaking area belonging to the USA), so we get more folks who speak mosly Spanish.

The big question is, why does it bother you? Are you upset because the world doesn't revolve around you and your knowledge?

Aninhaah

Spanish languague is everywhere in the world!

I feel sorry for you

Ameri-girls

Think how I feel...I live on the southern tip of a border state....ack.
