No Spanish Here

I don't quite understand this. I feel like it's ridiculous and I'm glad they reversed the suspension, but the damage was already done. This is coming from a girl who's grandfather was punished for speaking his native language. So does this mean we can not teach spanish in schools? I just have too much of a reaction going through my mind to actually really talk about this. I just can't believe it.

This is disgusting. It's bad enough that the school suspended this boy, but that people are actually pushing for "English-only" laws!? And demanding that no foreign languages be taught in school?! Are these people trying to revive the Nazi party, or are they actually just that arrogantly stupid?

who even knows. it makes me sick. I wish I could speak another language, or two or three. sure, there may be issues where some people are speaking in other languages to disrespect someone, like a teacher or another student. but's not an issue of language or cultural diversity. I do think we should continue to have an official language (a standard of communication) but that we should continue to make efforts to reach those who can't speak the official language - newspapers, govt documents, translators, etc. the whole thing makes me mad. i hope they sue them and win big. kid's dad has the right idea.
