"You Better Start Learnin' English"
   
I was at a small grocerie store, which has a deli inside where I get my lunch almost everyday. Good sandwichs for cheap. After picking up my vittles, I went to the register where I witnessed something that got my blood boiling.

While waiting in line, I witnessed an old man berate a woman for speaking spanish to the bag lady. She was just telling her what to do... The girl looked up at the old man and stated that she was addressing her co-worker in Spanish because it was their native language and that she was not talking about him. She was also sorry and said she meant no disrespectto the man. Well, that wasn't good enough for Mr. America. He claimed she was being disrespectful non-the-less for not speaking English while working in America. "I don't care.... you better start learnin' english!"

Well, "howdee-doodee-motha f'er", I said to myself, not out loud mind you. I looked at both ladies behind the cash register, whom I know from my many trips here and saw the panic in their faces. I gave them a look letting them know I did not approve of him. That's when I turned and looked at the old man, and told him that he better learn to show more respect to people. That no one had the right to tell anybody what language they had to speak in this country especially if they weren't talking to him! I also told him it was still a free country and to send Rush Limbaugh that message. He turned away without saying another word, while an asian man behind me, asked if the other guy had a problem with other languages. I grinned, and I told him apparently he does, and that what was most ironic, was that "the two ladies behind the counter probably knew more languages than most bigots in this country! He probably can't read and write proper english", I exclaimed out loud. With that an older woman, gave me a dirty look and I smiled right back at her.

Well the two behind the counter were shocked but thanked me graciously, which made me realize what I had just done. I felt both good and a bit "on the spot". I also didn't not care for talking to an elder that way. But somethings need to be said, and done!

I live in a Blue state (Massachusetts), but you try to find a talk show on AM radio that isn't right wing, or conservative! It's this hate radio shit talk that has dumb dumbs like this thinking it's acceptable to shove their fascist uber nationalistik shit down peoples throats in grocerie stores. So, when you see this shit, STOMP ALL OVER IT! Stick up for people! If you don't, you accept it.

Nicey-nice is over, understand? We have to take this country back ourselves and it has to start with the little things first.


Bounce, bounce, bounce....

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

So if true you disrespected an elderly native OF THIS COUNTRY to further your agenda(btw, it was probably not your initial reaction, but your continued berating of the man that earned you the dirty glance from the elderly woman). It is one thing to tell someone gently they are behaving badly and quite another to :beathorse:.

AS an aside, I understand the frustration of an older gentleman who has lived in this country all his life and all of a sudden feels as if he's a foreigner in his own land. I don't know this situation specifically, but I have seen immigrants be very disrespectful of the fact that THEY are in a foreign land and continue yammering on in their native language in conversation with another person while they are supposed to be helping someone else.

I always thought this was a good story, and so decided to resurrect it.

It's where you go to pick up sandwhichs, of course!  :-) But non-the-less, this guy is a lying a**hole. As you guys say, boing, boing!
There is no virtue in compulsory government charity, and there is no virtue in advocating it. A politician who portrays himself as caring and sensitive because he wants to expand the government's charitable programs is merely saying that he is willing to do good with other people's money. Well, who isn't? And a voter who takes pride in supporting such programs is telling us that he will do good with his own money— if a gun is held to his head.

My first thought was, "here we go...another cash register."  We've complained bitterly about this before.  Why can't they be more original in their creative writing classes?  They also employ in-laws all the time. 

This is not a bouncy:  This last weekend my FIL was visiting.  He's no Obama fan by any stretch, but then he called Reagan an "idiot."  I wasn't going to get into a pissing match with an 80-year old man, so I just looked quiety out the window.  Anyone who mattered knew what I was thinking.....

So basically what happened is some old guy was muttering something under his breath and the DUmmie decided he was railing against the clerk and the bagger. Rather than minding her own business she decided she needed to put this old guy in his place for "the greater good". The clerk and bagger looked shocked because they had no clue why this person became unhinged and were concerned that she might get violent.The older man, being a gentleman, just left the deli rather than get in a public shouting match with an idiot.
