thin skin rules the day..
sounds like his only problem is people who refuse to learn English. He probably doesn't mind people celebrating Cinco de Mayo as long as they know it is the 5th of May in Englishtrue, but I meant he is apparently not open to cultural differences. I know...never mind.
I am on the fence on this one.
Yeah - that sounds like his main problem if you ignore almost all of his quotes in the article.
I don't think this action was nessecarily racist (the email) but this guy sure does come off as someone who is racist
I've met Mr. Lovegood and he is no racist.
Ain't it the truth?
This makes me wonder.
"I think that our borders need to be closed," said LaFoille, who noted that his father came to the United States from Quebec, but refused to speak French around his son.
"I don't care what color you are, black, white, green or purple, if you don't speak English, I don't want to talk to you."
So because his father supposedly only spoke English around him, he only speaks to English speaking people????
he speaks bluntly but i dont see one qoute that could be considered racist.
I don't really see any sign of racism in his comments, but that doesn't mean he's not a complete ing moron. This is the same bull reasoning behind Manifest Destiny, that somehow our language, our people, our whatever, is superior to all others.
Xenophobia is never admirable... it's similar to racism in that it promotes the spread of fear of separate cultures.
this guy.
his father came to america and spoke the language of the land, he can only talk to those who speak that language
I don't like to just come out and say this person or that person is racist. However, I have reason to believe that this guy is in a way. Something about his comments in that article don't sit well with me.
I doubt his father only spoke English around him. That's my opinion.
thats what he says... he could be a liar and a racist though
This is what I mean when I say Peewee is funny
I agree with you
The cons ution doesn't say you have to speak english.
This stubborn english-only elitist can suck a d*ck.

Not racist. He merely recognizes that we have a problem with illegal immigration.
I don't see it as racism. He is one ignorant piece of though, that's for sure.
"I don't care what color you are, black, white, green or purple, if you don't speak English, I don't want to talk to you."??
talk about ignorant! and he works for a school board...
Is this person a racist? Yes."I don't care what color you are, black, white, green or purple, if you don't speak English, I don't want to talk to you."
Were his statements racist? Perhaps not, if you look only at the actual words (as quoted in the article) and remove them from their context. But, clearly, the guy has got some seriously racist beliefs.
How is this racist? Do people actually understand the meaning of that word?
The Spanish language isn't a race trait.
How can you talk to someone if you speak different languages? you could try but you wouldn't get very far unless you had a lot of time on your hands to try to understand each other. There is not one thing wrong with what he said.
yeah... because THAT's what he meant
Give me a break! What the dude is saying all thorughout the article is that, if you don't speak English, he doesn't want to have anything to do with you. Its NOT a case of him having trouble communicating...
The dude is content with his own ignorance, and you know what, that's just fine... EXCEPT, this guy works for a school board. A guy with this kind of at ude should not be working anywhere near a learning ins ution.
why couldn't he have meant that?yeah... because THAT's what he meant

he doesnt say he doesnt want to be around them or doesnt want to touch them or look at them. he says he doesnt want to talk to them.
Right... and that's why he wants to close the borders... because he doesn't want to have trouble communicating with people
