Lets all go down to Geno’s and give them some business… Hey I’m not going to do anything you say if you speak to me in Spanish, either… to protest you can go make a deposit in my bank account.

He is not descriminating based on race or color, he simply expects you to order in ENGLISH, the natural language of America - or hell, make the attempt at least. What happens when we have a country full of a mix of immigrant and illegals who do not speak languages they do not understand? We will have a separatists society; groups and blocks of people who refuse to assimilate and therefore create separate sections that wall themselves away from being Americans. They will expect all the services , demand it even, but refuse to learn the language. I thought most stores and restaraunts have the right to refuse service.
