Can someone out there explain to me why we should put driving tests in Spanish. These people are going to be driving in America reading English traffic signs .... and you're telling me they don't need to be able to read English. What happens if the sign says there is a wreck ahead ... please merge left. And they think it means merge right. Oklahoma is dealing with this just now. There is some Iranian guy who wants the test in Iranian Farsi or whatever.

May we be one so that the world may be won.

I have to agree with you on this one. To have some forms only printed only in Spanish or 1 or 2 other foreign languages is discriminatory. If they make it available for Spanish, then it should be done for every other immigrant.

When a person takes their driver's test in Spanish, like my wife did, they have to take a special section on signs which is all in English. If we don't allow driver's tests to be taken in Spanish, we will have a lot of drivers on the road without licenses. That is not desirable.

That sounds a bit racist. Maybe there is a better way to word that. The vast majority of Hispanics coming here work hard, pay taxes (yes they do) and are assets to their communities, churches and the nation. A small percentage come with bad intentions. We need to refine our immigration system so the ambitious and honest immigrants can come while preventing the criminal element or those with contagious diseases from entering.

if i were racist, would i have said 'viva la mexico'?

Yes, racists have been known to say 'viva la México'. That does not clarify what seems to be a demeaning statement that "taco lovers" will invade North America.
