“...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.
I have the opposite problem, my local market, has spanish speaking clerks.. I cannot under stand them... I go there often as it is the only market close by, it is a large IGA market.. but if there is a dispute on my bill etc.. I usually ask them to speak english as it my money they are disputing..and they usually call a bi lingual clerk to talk to me..
Leaves for the nearest lawyer's office and sues the business owner for statutory damages.

And the Judge says, "Read the statute, amigo, and pay up."
