This is disgusting and makes me feel absolutely appalled to live in such a city where this is even an issue. Those in favor of her and her ideals are nothing more than racist and anti-immigrant. Yes, this is America, and that's why we have to be accepting of all people whether or not they are fluent in English. This would not be such a big issue if the language in question was French or German.

Well if promoting English as our official language is offensive to you please understand that all that is being done here is an attempt

at keeping our national identity and our common means of communicating. Racist? Anti-immigrant?

That is just plain nonsense!

Go Sherry!! We are behind you 110%. When you run for Mayor you will replace King Rex. And thank you for your activity in the Tea Party...it is noted. Next on the agenda is to do away with the "Traffic Cams" in Lancaster. We also need a CCW Law passed as well. Thank you for a job well done. We back you all the way.

@spacetracker93 Hey Spacertrack93 , It's spelled "immigrant." You misspelled the word twice. You talk about lack of education about others , but when you spell like a dunce dork , that shows you have no primary educational background of yourself either. Start concentrating on your own education & lack there of , before you start dogging one someone else's...

[spacetracker93]

Frank Jorge is a hypocrite Cuban immigarant, that after fleeing away from Cuba he started rejecting newcoming immigratns. He behaves like a vicious rabid dog ready to jump at people. showing his vulgarity and lack of education.

@naachgaana actually if we didn't have beans or cheese dip, life would be ALOT less gassier

[nakedBison69]

naachgaana wants the entire United States and Canada to become part of totalitarian Mexico. naachgaana's life is 101% boring

[naachgaana]

@nakedBison69 You want our increasingly totalitarian government to force all of us to speak only English. I fail to see the difference.

And if you don't like carne asada or cheesedip, your life must be 100% boring.
