Racist Man Demands That A Woman Stop Speaking Spanish On A Plane, Passengers Troll Him By Speaking Spanish Too

It's just a weird thing to say as English isn't the official language in the USA. I would have loved to speak my two Spanish sentences 'dos cervecas, por favor' and 'vamos a la playa'.

I never get why people are so rude with other languages... The only dog trainer in the area of Belgium where I live not only refused to help me train my dog because she is trained in English (and as we live in Belgium 'she must be trained in flemish') but also gave me a 5 min speech about how I cant speak to my partner and dog IN MY HOUSE in any language that is not flemish...

Whenever an American tells you to speak English, tell them to speak American.

Haven't been a bystander to something like but back in college while waiting for class, heard one of my classmates, absolutely bright girl, speaking in Arabic on her phone. She noted my curiosity and I simply said that i didn't understand athing she said but it sounded beautiful.

I've had that speaking French in Canada. Of course, this was in Ontario... But still, French is one of the two official languages of Canada.

I know a Spanish word! "Pendejo"! Isn't that a great word?

Recently on a bus in Holland, an American tourist complained that the driver didn't speak English. I intervened, and explained to him that we speak Dutch, but when we go to the US we speak English, as courtesy. Now he's in Holland, he should express that same courtesy, and address us in Dutch.

I think the only time one should speak English if in American is in a professional setting. It's rude to talk a native language when you have clients around. It makes many uncomfortable. Other than that, it's no ones business how you choose to communicate.

Then there was the man in Arizona who told the woman talking on the phone behind him in line that "this America, we speak English, either learn English or go home", etc. Turned out she was speaking to her sister in Navajo.

I speak perfect Italian and Spanish, i am still waiting for my moment to do this, i would of word darted him the whole flight.

I assume they were laughing in spanish, too?

*cracks knuckles* time to up my game on language learning. Need to be prepared.

jajajaja...

why can't we speak whatever language we f*****g like? I would have decked him if he told me to stop speaking French

I took French in high school and I took Spanish in college. Several men of my family have worked with language speakers of all languages and on occasion we slip into Spanglish. This world is made up of many different people from many different cultures who speak many different languages and we need to embrace that. These people who are always yelling about people needing to "speak American" do not realize how ignorant they sound when they say that. Here are some things to remember if you are a die hard American: American is not a language, the US does not have an official language, and English comes from England.

Spanish is my native tongue!! It would have been soo nice to be there!

I think I'd bring my husband and son into the mix so they can speak Japanese in front of him..lol

Most people who have a problem with others speaking other than English are afraid that others are speaking about them. Its an insecurity thing.

I would've totally broken out the, donde esta la biblioteca in support, and I'm Chinese. No one's fault the man can only speak one language.

You could have responded " I will stop speaking Spanish if you will stop breathing." I am glad that others helped put him in his place.

Thank you great Shedispellcaster@gmail.com My love is back to me after the spell you casted was successful.

Correction: we want a wall to keep ILLEGAL immigrants out. Just a tiny distinction for those interested in details.
