text: First off,  you can't learn English if everything is in Spanish for you: You live in a community where everyone speaks Spanish,  where you shop the Food Labels are in Spanish, Government Forms are in Spanish, the Police will speak Spanish, and you even have a slew of Spanish TV programs. You can't even learn English from your school age children because they're TAUGHT in Spanish!
  
  Secondly, I don't know what makes these people so darn special that we have to bend over backwards for them. Nothing special was done for the Germans, Poles, Lithuanians, Italians, Latvians, Swedes, etc, etc, that immigrated here from Europe. Every one of those people had to learn English on their own, many going to Night School on their own time and MONEY -- no special programs for them. And their children were thrown into a classroom with American kids and it was sink or swim for them --- Learn English pdq or else.  And they DID!
  
  If the Spanish speakers can't learn English they should leave, and pronto!
