What We Need to Do

 I had this idea dawn upon me yesterday.  As 'good neighbors'.....Mericans (Americans) ought to go out and start mandating that we speak Spanish (Mexican, for folks from Alabama).  

We'd do this as good neighbors and welcome our new Mexican friends (really Hondurans, Guatemalans, El Salvadorians, Belizeans,  Nicaraguans, Costa Ricans, etc).

We Mericans would go out and attend local Mexican classes....via church groups, bingo parlors, sports bars, or city parks.

Then we'd start to put pressure on the Washington political folks....they need to attend, and start using Spanish in their speeches.  Then we'd turn to President Biden and VP Harris to also use Spanish.  

The black community....the Asian community?  No choice....get with the 'good neighbor' program or face negativity.

Then I'd turn NPR over to be a full-time teaching vehicle of Spanish....with you getting NPR-news via some some Belizean or Guatemalan team each mid-day.

Yes, with open arms, fake charm, and enforced enthusiasm....we'd bring things to the right prospective.

and then we'd hang corpses from highway overpasses and turn to kidnapping if the demand for drugs slows even slightly .

in watching the george floyd trial ive gotten more insight on how extensive L - E urban surveillance is becoming . im happy about it because our society is becoming more and more diverse and thats ok with me as long as there are tools in place to make everyone accountable for their own actions . there are immigrants here to work and better their lives and there are some here to expedite large quantities of meth .
more effective L - E can sort the wheat from the chaff .
