America is truly a great country and immigrants have literally built it from the days of the Wild West to the early 19th century when scores from Ireland and Europe came to America in search of a new life. However, even as Americans are warm and welcoming, there is a section of society as in every country who is bigoted and prejudiced towards a fellow human being. Recently one such incident of discrimination involving an American of Vietnamese origin.

Minh emailed Peterson regarding the job saying “Talk about appointment available, Monday.” to which he got this dirty reply “Let me tell you now, if you no speak English, I will send you home.” So apparently for some people, they possess the god given right to insult others just because one doesn’t speak English.

Peterson is such a dope, English is a language and if Minh cannot speak it well, can you speak his language?? Why is it for some that having a mastery over English is regarded as something superior in comparison to the world’s languages?
