Should everyone in america speak english (including all illegals and citizens)? I understand that english is a hard language to grasp but everyone should know at least enough to communicate. It would make a lot of things easier. What do u think?

People in general should be able to speak english... It's pretty much how the world communicates with itself...

yes. but there's also nothing wrong with a foreigner using their own language as a second tongue.

i agree with learning the language
if in their own communities they speak their own language fine
but english should not be the only language spoken
(my family is made up of immigrants)

I believe if one is going to move to a different country, they should learn the language of that country first before deciding to move. It is common sense. I mean, why would I move to a country where I don't even know the language, just to go into stores and look like an idiot because I can't speak the language they speak? I'd learn the language first.
         What makes me so aggravated, is when you have people from other countries living here, and they expect you to understand them, when you are trying to understand them they get pissier and pisser and mouth off at you. I understand learning a different language is useful, but it is also common sense for these people who decide to move here to also learn our language so we can understand them as well. I mean, c'mon now
