   Perfect example of a patriot who stands his ground and wins. Doing the right thing because it is the right thing to do, not only when it is convenient or when there is a good chance of getting caught doing otherwise, is what integrity is all about. Stand your ground and fight for your principles. Compromising over right vs wrong is surrendering.

   And yet once again you have proven exactly who the racsist bigot is…you. You are so obsessed with the color of ones skin, whereas we see people for the character (gee I seem to remeber Dr. Martin Luther King saying something very similiar to that). Get lost you bigot America does not need your hate.

    Again, I don’t accept the premise of your argument – you are assuming that God will judge him merely on the running of his business, rather than the philanthropic works he did anonymously as pointed out by MM.

    Besides, those same “brown people” may have been the ones who flew planes into the WTC on 9/11. And before you get your diapers into a knot, remember that you were the one who brought up race in the first place.

    He wasn’t being hostile. You just don’t recognize tough love when you see it. This man was full of love for those he knew and those he didn’t know. He was helping those who couldn’t speak the langage, not enabling them.

    First, Ms Malkin, I have to disagree. You are not a “loudmouth”. I’m a loudmouth. You have a resume of training and accomplishment, and your opinions are always backed by hard fact.

    Now, (stepping into loudmouth mode), at risk of being called “racist” again, I want to point out the flaw in the civil rights laws, as demonstrated by the persecution of Joey Vento.

    After 21 months of investigation, a marathon seven-hour hearing and hysterical testimony likening his innocuous 4-inch-by-9-inch sign to “Jim Crow laws,” he was cleared of discrimination charges.

    As an individual, even as a business owner, it is Joey’s right to discriminate as he sees fit. IMLO (in my loudmouth opinion), the 1964 Civil Rights Act, insofar as it outlaws discrimination by non-governmental entities, violates people’s rights of association, in a way closed-shop States do.

    The government should never discriminate between its citizens. The 14th Amendment deals with that. The excesses of the era prior to the civil rights movement were all empowered by codifying discrimination in law.

    But, if I run a restaurant, and I refuse service to a “class” of customer by any criteria I choose (say I don’t like redheads or people with pimples), I am instantly creating a business opportunity for someone willing to cater to the people I won’t. And I’m denying myself the profits to be had by serving that class of customer.

    However, there are times when discrimination should be exercised as a right. Such as the supper club which refused to admit patrons with small children. The children proved disruptive to their target clientele, and actually cost them potential customers. Meanwhile, there’s a fast food join just down the road, I’m sure.

    The point being, Joey Vento had the right to discriminate between customers whom he could serve in a reasonable amount of time and in a reasonable way, and customers who were costing him sales (and possibly inventory) because he could not understand their orders.

    This is a business decision, not a bigoted decision. All that situations like Joey Vento’s demonstrates to me is that we need a serious overhaul of the 1964 Civil Rights Act (and subsequent, related legislation).

    Same goes for when you take your wife to an upscale place and they insist on your wearing a TIE! In those rare instances where you may have forgotten, the management is usually only too happy to provide you a ‘loaner’ so as to conform.

    Now… if you simply -refuse- then that’s a different matter! ( So the ‘loaner’ is PINK!? ) Serves you right. IMLO

    Does anyone know how much the government spends to provide translation services and forms, supplies, etc. in languages other than English?

    ILMC – God created all of us. We become children of God when we receive Jesus as our personal Lord and Savior, by acknowledging that God sent His Son Jesus to die on the cross for all of our sins, and that Jesus was raised from the dead and lives today. We then as believers should be making an effort to obey God.

    I disagree. You are complicit in sabotaging Michelle’s blog.

    ILMC’s comments are not worth responding to. The vast majority of people who read blogs don’t read the comments and the vast majority of those who do read the comments don’t post any. Something to remember for those who feel compelled to “police” the threads. What may be entertaining to a small handful of us who comment is tedious to those who don’t. We are merely a small part of the audience.

    Besides, you guys make it so easy for ILMC with your predictable responses. You’re like trained seals. It clutters up the threads and makes them unreadable.

    Every blog has a few ILMCs. Ignore him/her/it.

    Kudo’s Michelle. Well played. The strange thing about this, is that if you passed along an anonymous questionnaire to 10 million people from all walks of life, you would get an amazingly large percentage (I would guess 80%-90%) calling out this politically correct insanity. Therefore, it is foisted upon us by slimy politicians from both parties who dont have the spine to stand up to the PC police as the brave Mr. Vento did. The American people are fed up with all of it; yet a slim minority gets it their way because of scumbag pols who pander their souls (and America) away.

    Off topic

    From John Bernard at Big Peace – unbelieveable…

    
    H.R. 1540: National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012

    Number: House Vote #354 in 2011

    “H.Amdt. 318: An amendment numbered 38 printed in House Report 112-88 to require that the rules of engagement allow any military service personnel assigned to duty in a designated hostile fire area to have rules of engagement that fully protects their right to proactively defend themselves from hostile actions.”

    I applaud the efforts of those in Congress who crafted the amendment and then voted for the bill in which it is included. I am, however, awe struck by the sheer insanity that dares suggest a formal statement needed to be made by some members of Congress requiring American Political Leadership and the Upper Echelons of the American military establishment, to afford members of the United States Armed Forces the “legal right” to “defend themselves” from the enemy!?

    Here’s the vote

    160 tools actually voted against it including 18 Republicans. I’d like to know the story behind this. I had to drill down to find the actual vote on the amendment, but this is for real. Big Peace took the story down, I think because the vote citation link was bad. Should be up shortly.

    God Bless this guy.

    I work in the hotel/ food service industry and as such, I’m in close contact with a lot of immigrants who don’t speak much English (and as far as their legal status goes….well, wink wink, nudge, nudge…).

    I’ve started putting my foot down when the busbuys and Mexican servers speak to each other in Spanish when they’re in front of the guests. It’s rude to speak a foreign language in mixed company.

    I used to work with a lot of Dutch people. They were very proud of their country but they worked very hard to speak always in English. I was impressed with their culture, so I learned a lot of Dutch– I was semi-fluent after a while– they helped me learn. Some of them went back to the Netherlands after their internships were done. A few years ago, they came back to visit– and we all went out for a night on the town. There were about ten of us–I was the only American, the rest were Dutch. What amazed me though was their manners– even though I could comprehend a little Dutch, they ALL SPOKE ENGLISH ALL NIGHT LONG just for MY sake– because it would have been rude for them to speak Dutch even with ONE non-(fluent) Dutch speaker in their presence.

    This is the USA. Speak English. It’s not “optional”.

    Whatever it is, we will be told that it is such a small amount that it makes no difference in federal and state budgets and cutting it won’t help with the spending problems we have at both levels.

    They use bills that are important or have wide support to do one of two things; slip in less popular riders or add some wacky BS that force Republicans to vote against it so that they can use that no vote as a bludgeon against them.

    And here in Denver, at traffic court the Spanish speakers go first, always. You know, so our taxpayer-funded translators don’t have to work overtime.

    skye (comment #50),

    Just checked out your links. It must have been pretty cool to meet and talk with Joey. He seemed to be anything but boring—or silent.

    Sorry that you’re missing the funeral because of your injury.

    Perfect example of a patriot who stands his ground and wins. Doing the right thing because it is the right thing to do, not only when it is convenient or when there is a good chance of getting caught doing otherwise, is what integrity is all about. Stand your ground and fight for your principles. Compromising over right vs wrong is surrendering.

    Remind us of where your lying fits morality.

    Also, I have a saying.

    Either we come together or we fall apart.

    Assimilation, one common culture, one common language, means we come together.

    And then there’s this letter to the editor in today’s paper.

    Some people just don’t get it.

    Here’s my response to that letter.

    To the Editor:

    Ari Nuncio bemoans the barriers set to legal immigration. He then asserts, “The situation is particularly ironic for Mexicans, given the fact that we’re the descendants of people who lived in this region for hundreds and even thousands of years, and the areas most of us are migrating to were Mexican lands before they became part of the United States.”

    And for those thousands of years, there were no hospitals, no highways, no hotels, no skyscrapers, no Starbucks, no factories, no restaurants, no NASA. Those all are a result of European-Americans coming to a land where people lived, literally, in the stone-age. These things didn’t just happen by chance, but as a result of a very special cultural philosophy. The barrier needs to be set high, to preserve that cultural philosophy, both from the obsolete indigenous cultures, as well as the failed cultures of Europe. Not all cultures are equal.

    Following our immigration laws isn’t an “option”. It ensures that the people who come here want to understand and embrace that culture, rather than bring the failings of the land they left with them. Too many use Nuncio’s excuse to not merely come to America, but to force it to embrace the language and culture of the nations they left.
    We don’t want Oklahoma City to become like Ciudad Juarez. Hence the barriers to immigration.

    If they dare publish it, I’ll probably be burned at the stake for heresy.

    Joey was the kind of man, who after 9/11, held a 3-day fundraising marathon and raised $120,000, who often tracked down and sent checks to unemployed families or terminally ill children after reading about them in the newspaper.

    Nice. RIP Joey.
