re: #181 Mike Lamb
I’d guess that most of the Spanish speaking people in the country are US citizens.
I’ve spoken Spanish since I was a child. It was pretty common in rural California and semi-urban Texas where I lived. Nobody thought anything of it until about the last 10 years or so. It was a great help in my working life. It has taken on a distinctly political cast now, with non-speakers thinking I am some kind of cuck or sell out for doing so.
