Illegal immigrants can’t speak English.

Here in the United States, we have a lot of people who came across our border and live here, but have not even tried to assimilate into the culture of this country . Most of these people are Hispanics that came here, supposedly as refugees from one of the Central American countries, but they do not even try to learn to read and write in English. We also have other countries that have come here, but some of them are at least trying to speak English.
The people from Haiti seem to be the worst, and there are a lot of vehicle accidents because they do not know how to drive a car but do it anyway, even though they can’t read road signs , or understand English.

From what i am reading, this is also a huge problem in England and other European countries that have been letting in the migrants from other countries. Where we live, our neighbors are mostly a mixture of black, white, and Hispanic people, so we have a lady next door who has to have her daughter translate everything for her, and she has lived there for around 4 years now, and never tried to learn to speak English.
This seems to be how it is everywhere. The kids go to school and they become translators for the adults.
 
We have a lot of people from India as well, probably a bad example because English speaking is common over there. Lately a few Muslim immigrants, however they spent a lot of years in Canada and then Detroit first.

Quite a few Asian folks here too, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, and on and on. Some still have a rough accent, but I can't think of any who can't understand, speak, and read and write English.
 
Well, unfortunately, America lets this happen. There are a lot, and I mean a lot, of tv cable channels that are in Spanish. We couldn't believe it! There are rodeos on the Cowboy Channel that have the Spanish/American channel Telemundo. If a person loves rodeo action in Spanish, they go to that. There are numerous business, like our cable company (COX) that has a "press this for Spanish" as does my Urologist's Office. Years ago, when I lived in Southern California, Pep Boys store aisles had signs describing what was in each aisle in American, Spanish and Vietnamese.

There are people from Mexico/South America that will speak Spanish with others from there and nobody will stop them. They all know that they can do it without any controversy from locals. Just how do we make, strong word "make", them learn English and speak it..............I don't think it will ever happen. The "language" thing has been let-to too long.
 
We have a lot of business owners that are from India, as well as a lot of the doctors here in Huntsville. The little convenience store is owned by by a Hindee, and he is always asking Bobby to help him fix something if it breaks down. Even simple things, he needs help with, so he does a good job with the management of the store, but not so much on repairs.
The Hispanics are hard workers, from what we have seen, and do things like house painting, roofing, and other construction work; however, some of them have turned out to be worthless as renters becasue they are drunk or on drugs most of the time, and I think those are probably living with women who are on the welfare system , along with their kids.

Right now, ICE is mostly focusing on the criminals, but President Trump is also taking the illegals off of welfare and any other benefits which are supposed to be for US citizens, and those will probably be the next wave to be deported back to their own country. The ones who are working and are benefitting America, will probably get some sort of authorization to stay here and work, but we are no longer going to be giving them all the free food and housing that they were getting from the Biden administration.
 
Biden ordered an app built for aliens to register their presence when they crossed our border illegally. The Trump admin has changed it to a self-deportation app so aliens who have decided to go home on their own can pre-register before they get back to the border. The advantage for them is that self-deportation will allow them to apply to return to the US using the legal immigration methods. Those who so not use but are known to have been here illegally will not be allowed to apply to enter legally.
