LEE COUNTY— under a proposal in Tallahassee, a state's top Democrat is supporting a plan to make Spanish class is mandatory for all students in kindergarten through second grade, just like English or math.
"I frankly believe, the earlier you teach someone, the better it is," said George Muentes, an English as a second language teacher. then how about teaching ENGLISH to Spanish speaking children???
The law would make Spanish a CORE CLASS like math and science. It would force school officials to shuffle an already crowded schedule." The length of the school day would not change, but the Spanish would have to be squeezed in somewhere, which means that popular classes may have to be cut to make room.
If the bill passes, it will take effect until 2007. But the mandatory Spanish classes is already a controversial subject was some parents. NO KIDDING!!
"I've heard it the other way that English was the language here... on the other hand, there's a lot of Spanish people here. No, it does not surprise me. I just don't like it," said parent Ed Barrick. you just don't like it? Wake up and smell the coffee.
"It's a good idea to offer Spanish. But I don't know if we want to mandated, frankly." Said Florida Attorney General Charlie Crist
The idea may be controversial, but it may not be too long before bilingual books become standard for local students.

The point is people, WE HAVE BEEN INVADED!!! [Oh Robin, you are always exaggerating] really? Look at the evidence.

This is exactly what we have done. We are surrendering our country to invading forces when we turn our back to the problem.

My question is, the way things are going in Oregon, what is to prevent it from happening here. What is to prevent it from happening in other states?

Yes, the United States is a melting pot of different cultures speaking a common language. And that language is English! Not Russian, not Japanese, not Spanish.
I agree that it is really great that we all embrace our diverse cultures. Nevertheless, to function in a country you must speak the common language not the other way around.
The facts are this...
Come here illegally, you are a felon. No questions asked. You're in violation of federal immigration laws and that makes you a criminal regardless of the reason.
Support a criminal, and you are technically aiding and abetting which then makes you a criminal as well .
Force the legal citizens of the United States to change their cultures to accommodate another, is treason.
So, tell me than how forcing our children to speak Spanish, the California gun-control bill and others are not treasonous acts against the United States.
I strongly believe that anybody in public office who openly and willfully supports another nation over our own [which is also a violation of their ethics code] should be tossed out of office and tried for treason.
Harsh words I know, but this political correctness that we all have been subject to, is no different than waving the white flag.
We have lost our own culture, Christmas for example and replaced it with somebody else's.
