This is America.

WHEN ORDERING, 'PLEASE SPEAK ENGLISH'.

Common sense; small business; and private property rights: 1 --- Obtuse pandering p.c. twits: 0

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - The owner of a famous cheesesteak shop did not discriminate when he posted signs asking customers to speak English, a city panel ruled Wednesday.

In a 2-1 vote, a Commission on Human Relations panel found that two signs at Geno's Steaks telling customers, "This is America: WHEN ORDERING 'PLEASE SPEAK ENGLISH,'" do not violate the city's Fair Practices Ordinance.

Shop owner Joe Vento has said he posted the signs in October 2005 because of concerns over immigration reform and an increasing number of people in the area who could not order in English.

What's really pathetic are the obtuse pandering p.c. twits that corrode basic constitutional rights & attempt to impose this kafka-esque nonsense on otherwise decent people with far better things to do with their lives - like run a business and make a living.

What's more pathetic is the obtuse pandering p.c. twits hijacking of the English language and the demonizing of perfectly good words like 'discriminate'.

But what's most pathetic are the obtuse pandering p.c. twits that can't distinguish between those non-negotiables of acceptance & respect for other people's race & gender, and the two way street of free market choice to freely assimilate into a culture & use its language - or not. But, then again, critical thinking was never a strong suit for the obtuse pandering p.c. twits.
