dunno bout america but

i think anyone who comes into Australia/the UK should speak and write almost fluent english before they're even considered

maybe not refugees...but they should definately be forced to take classes as part of the conditions for refugee status...

Spanish should be a secondary language since U.S is indeed surrounded by Spanish speaking countries and have a bunch number of Spanish speaker.

yes, for assimilation yes...it is essential for the future of a nation...fucking immigrants who stick to their clans...

And what is wrong with that?

I despise the semi immigrant as yourself leaning one side hating on the other side instead being balance.

You are not from America so you wouldn't know what was wrong if immigrants remained in their ethnic enclaves for eternity.  Everyone must assimilate to the american and democratic creed in order that the nation have any future at all.  It's how diversity remains in our country.  Ideological Multiculturalism= demise of the US.

Don't let the location fool you I did lived in America.  I just hate people who are sucking up to other culture and despise there original heritage and culture.  

I really don't give a damned what some other people think of my culture of heritage; if they can't respect mine for who I am then they don't deserve my respect.

Plus you don't have to suck up to some so called "privilege" group in order to be successful....but if you work hard enough you can be one without sucking up to other rich people "privilege" or other entities.

If I moved to Spain, then I'd expect myself to learn Spanish in order to understand and speak the common language, which is what I expect those around me to do the same, really.

Yeah, same with here (Australia). I think the government should offer free English classes for people migrating here if they don't speak it.

I think so, yes. It's not as if America would be the only country to declare an official language. And it wouldn't exactly be illegal to speak other languages so no one's culture would be getting squashed.

I've always wondered why this is such a controversial topic. I mean, people would raise hell if an American moved to France and bitched about how the official language is French and how unfair that is.

Well thanks!

It is because I saw your other post (almost made me sick to my stomach) hating on your fellow Asian side in you (hence the "fucking immigrants" aren't you yourself from the seeds of the immigrant yourself) while sucking up to the other side of you "Eurasia."  Such self hater in my valuable opinion are indeed a waste of sperm.
