When in America, speak American

Not much annoys me more than hearing people who claim to be Americans, speaking languages other than American, or in other words English. I don't care if you're here from China, Japan, Russia, Mexico, the Middle-East, I don't care, learn English and speak it when in public.

What you do in the privacy of your own home or car is your own business and I couldn't care less. But at work, school, at the store, while riding public transportation, or anywhere you might come into contact with the general public, it is your duty, your responsibility to speak English. To do anything else shows a high disregard and a great deal of disrespect for America and for Americans.
