English Only

Here's another topic, with the same rules as the others. Except here's a new one: I want this to be a debate, not a name calling, death threat session. Not that I'm pointing anyone out, I just want to clarify. Actually, let me be honost. That was directed at VampRocker. Let's please try to keep the childishness to a minimum.

Pro English only
-Force people to learn English, giving people more opportunities.
-Would save money on printing multi-lingual documents.

Con English only
-Some argue this causes culture to be lost.
-Some think English only is a form of discrimination.

Some websites for research, if anyone wants to educate themselves. There's a lot more if you go to a search and type in "english only debate."
U.S. English (supports English only)
Robert D. King's essay (anti-English only)

Of course there are many more pros, cons, and websites. I just wasn't sure how well versed people are in this subject, so I thought I'd give them some help.

You may not like what I have to say, but I'll defend to your death my right to say it.
