Never buy anything from California and never send my tax money to the left wing anti-Americans that run the state of California.

“...the state Senate acted today to prohibit businesses in California from discriminating against customers, including refusing them service, based on the language they use.”

How the hell are you going to serve someone you can’t understand?!?!?!

My advice to businesses who don’t want to be bothered with bilingualism: just keep repeating “what?” and “I don’t understand you.” until the non-english speaking (would-be) patron gives up and leaves. And if they get prosecuted for failing to provide service, tell the judge it’s not your responsibility to learn every language out there to satisfy the demands of these politically-correct, multi-cultural Nazis.

So I'm expected to serve any dimbulb off the street who comes into my store and calls me a M*****F******?

Oh, they don't mean that kind of language, you say?????

Congress shall make no law(s) restricting FREEDOM OF SPEECH.
My “freedom of speech” is predicated on my speaking and communicating in the ONE language that I speak and understand. By some strange circumstance English is the language of my country, learned 2 generations ago by the European relatives who came to the USA.
I use English to describe to my customers the intricate repairs required by their articles. I use English to tell them the cost and the time required.
I tell my English speaking doctor my problems and he tells me in English what must be done.
I have STOPPED ordering from a parts company that proudly employs an order clerk that cannot understand what I am saying and gets 70% of an order wrong. Will the LAW require that I suffer constant mistakes.
I thought that California has reached the bottom. They surprised me big time. I can’t wait to see what is next.

My family didn’t legally immigrate here to the United States, leaving a Third World craphole, to come live in another Third World craphole like Mexi-fornia.

Leland Yee used to be ok, but since spending 10 years in the California Senate he has become a tool.

As your constituent I urge you to co-sponsor S.991, The English Language Unity Act of 2009!
The United States is one of the few countries in the world without an official language.
Public opinion polls show that 84-87 percent of the American people from all walks of life support this common sense idea.
A majority of 30 U.S. states have already made English their official language.
Please help protect our nation’s unity in the English language by supporting S. 991.
