Oh wow. Illiad over at User Friendly just made an awesome news post describing exactly how I feel about immigration & multiculturalism:
Those immigrants who refuse to learn the local language are in effect attempting to carve out an enclave, or colony, for themselves in their new country, an enclave where they can ignore all of the locals and in fact reject the community in which they live. I abhor this behaviour, as it serves only to erect walls within the community, and in this age of globalization that can’t possibly end well.
Even though he lives in Canada, and I live in the US, we still deal with some of the same issues. Wow. Here is a link to the whole post: http://ars.userfriendly.org/news/?id=1208466459
