The primary language spoken in that town is Spanish. The same assholes who arranged this CPAC appearance by this white nationalist Brimelow had a hand in denying the woman in San Luis a place on the municipal ballot.

They have not updated their website on this issue.

I’m not impressed by how many languages you know. I have two siblings who are professional translators in several languages. The fact is the women knows enough English for the place where she lives and is denied a spot on the ballot by political rivals and bigots. I think that’s a despicable state of affairs.

I started out by saying that I am sympathetic to this woman. There is little point in scapegoating one person when we do nothing elsewhere to unify a country in language.

I’m not trying to impress you, just make the point that any fool can learn a language reasonably if they are encouraged to do so and given some assistance. We do neither except perhaps by this kind of harassment. Go to Europe and every immigrant knows the language of the country they are in, and most likely English too.

Only in the USA do you find entire cities where many native born people don’t speak the language of their country.
