Not only do I agree with the official English thing
I believe we should immediately execute anyone guilty of speaking imperfect English or a foreign language in public anywhere in America.

The death penalty for all languages except perfect English--an idea whose time has apparently come!


















oh, um :sarcasm:

4. You know India has English
as one of it's 2 official langauges (Hindi is the other) but I think 16 other langauges are recognized.

I am confused why English should NOT be the official langauge of the US, could someone explain it to me.

9. 16 languages recognized and 1,652 languages total!
One of the funniest things I've ever seen was a group of 8 or 10 Indian tech consultants discussing some problem in English. Why? Because English was the only common language they had with one another. It cracks me up just thinking about it. :)

14. Does that mean I have to give up my second language? Profanity.
Which is much needed when dealing with politicians or shrink wrap.
