New York Lawyer Rant Goes Viral

When you dial any large corporation (i.e. phone companies, banks, chain department stores) the first thing you hear is "Press 2 for Spanish."

America being a two-language nation is coming from the globalist conglomerates. They, in turn, donate to the politicians who sell us on their money-making notions in various ways, such as using the "multicultural" idea to describe the nation. We always were multicultural, but people still learned English.

The guy in this video should take the topic up with the conglomerates, not middle managers and not immigrants. This is a complex subject because America isn't like any other nation.

Having Spanish slowly become a second language is stoking resentment, but not because of the Hispanics who speak it. It's because of people's own histories.

Unlike other countries, a lot of Americans have grandparents that had to drop their native tongue (Italian, German, Greek) and learn English. These people, and their descendants think: "If we had to learn English, how come they get to keep their language?"

But as I wrote earlier, if you want that question answered, go to the companies who ask you to "Press 2" and offer Spanish on their cash and credit card machines (and so on).

The average people -- white and Hispanics -- are hapless pawns in this globalist game. Being rude to them and/or getting them fired or deported won't solve this problem.

And considering all the resentment and problems that Canada has when it comes to incorporating two languages, I do consider a dual-language country a potential problem. Notice I said "dual-language" and not "bi-lingual." There is a difference, and I see us headed toward the first of these.

^You got that right DOBA, official bilingualism in Canada is a huge waste of taxpayers money, divides the country and allowed a group of people (French Canadians) to dominate federal politics and jobs that often require candidates to be bilingual.

I also find it mind bending that a Heeb would have such hubris as to speak to anyone in this discriminatory fashion given that his “tribe” has made great strides in garnering the sympathy of much of the western world for millennia of perceived and actual ants persecution.

Good point.

Isn't the Jews whole goddamn schtick about crossing some desert?

Did the Jews just cross a better desert than the Mexicans?

Aloha!

Absolutely agree with the comments, that throwing a "bitchfit" is the most idiotic response, however, the language issue does irk me.

In recent years my locality has been overtaken by recent immigrants of substantively similar ethnicities/race. I now leave my home for grocery shopping and barely hear any English and believe me it can be an depressing and alienating experience...

My dad, who is conversant in some of these languages, posed the question the other "where are all our people?"

I think that's just the issue. Public spaces are being slowly controlled by immigrants to the exclusion of locals (largely due to their large numbers) - ironic given these institutions are products of the work of locals. I recall reading about an academic finding that locals in mass immigration hotspots tend to introversion and keep to themselves due to feelings of alienation. Absolutely true.

When my grandparents left their homeland they made a commitment to integrate into their new society (at least ostensibly if not adopt identical ideologies) through language and mannerisms and that should be the bare minimum.

This is getting out of hand...

How is this news?

Some guy gets upset and throws a temper tantrum, so it's national news in a country of 300 million?

Is our collective time that worthless?

This is a big wakeup call to get off the damn internet.

It absolutely is huge news for the liberal main stream media.

They scream, "SEEE !!!? SEE!!?? This is who Trump supporters are"

It's great optics for the left to scream "racism is alive and well"

What about countless real racist incidences of other tribes and races?

Crickets....

So one Jewish guy gets upset because he hears Spanish everywhere and his fuses blow. So what?

He is not wrong as the US is becoming a South American country.

Of course he would butt heads doing what he does. It's only natural that the media is focusing on this incident as the most important thing in US history.

So a bum screaming something racist on the sidewalk will be center news now?

Here in Switzerland we have 4 official languages, german, French, Italian and romansch.

I was in a meeting the other day with a guy from the German bit, a guy from the French bit and me. Eventually we all just defaulted to English because it was such a faff.

All of the different speaking areas regard the others as weird and not ‘real’ Switzerland. Plus the fact that all government documents have to be in four languages. It’s a bit of a faff.

That's different - the country was historically separated language wise.

It's tantamount to what the US would have been if the Germans and Italians retained their languages and created their own settlements speaking mostly German/Italian among them own and using English as a second language. The US is different -everyone was meant to assimilate and not blabber on in their Russian dialect.

You are all missing the real story here!  At the end of his rant, our fat shaming hero cries out: "Maybe you shouldn't be eating that sandwich today. Take a break from the food!"

Dayummmmmm!

If you think that was worthless, here's 90 seconds of Aaron Schlossberg and a DailyMail photographer silently circling each other with their cameras in each others' faces:

The headline is that he did not say anything. Worthlessness of extraordinary quality, exquisitely trimmed, and seared to perfection.

I was in a restaurant that I was a regular at in China and a female waitress refused to take my order because I was "a foreigner." She explained this to her male coworker within ear range of me and sent him over to serve me instead.

I didn't throw a tantrum. I just never went back.

Why didn't you start screaming racism and send the video forward to the Chinese media telling them how racist those right-wing Chinese are?

Or how it's a disgrace that English isn't acceptable second language already in China?

I got refused entry to a restaurant in Venice, because I was not Italian - the locals only accepted other locals there wanting to be free from tourists.

I refuse to speak English with service staff in China if they attempt to speak English with me. I tell them I'm from France and that I don't understand a word of English.

I think it's rather offensive that they assume my language based on the color of my skin.
 
It's a hugely unpopular stance--but being American or living in America does not negate the fact that foreign languages exist. Too fucking bad. Sorry you can't be bothered and/or don't have the capacity to learn a foreign language. It has nothing to do with nationality, patriotism, or anything of the sort. It's a verbal communication between people. It's so arbitrary to the point of nonsense.

"Oh yeah! Merica! We speak Merican! If you don't like it, get out." Dude... Grow the fuck up and get a passport. You'll soon figure out that there is a such thing as foreign language and you'll also be surprised how many people don't speak English. What's the big deal?

And yes, it is unfortunate, but some of the other posters have pointed out: this guy is making a fucking ass of himself and it's all because the people were speaking Spanish... If it'd been French, this shit would've never happened. So, yes. There it is. The smoking gun. And this guy has done it in the past. Double trouble. If you don't want the left throwing the racism shit-cake in your face, then don't do shit like this.

While I agree with you, I think enough is enough. This dude has essentially had his life ruined over this, which I think is way out of proportion for the act he committed. The guy's been publicly shamed, kicked out his office and now there is a petition to get him disbarred. People make mistakes but a verbal one shouldn't lead to a man's life and livelihood being ruined. Just my $0.02

The real lesson here is that Game Saves Lives.

I could understand being angry if he was actually expected to speak Spanish because the employees don't speak English at a business that clearly caters to the local public. Not that angry, that's just nuts, but still. Frustrated. Make an offhand remark to a manager and take your business elsewhere. Whatever.

Ranting like a lunatic because you witnessed other people speaking Spanish to each other in a conversation that you were not part of? Even the most meddlesome busybody of a lonely old widow would scoff at such faggotry. Now that he's drawn attention to himself, other lawyers and clients are coming out of the woodwork about his perpetual agitation and unprofessional outbursts.

Even before the arrival of viral media, people who habitually threw tantrums like this had a way of quietly getting killed or locked up. Most incidents just disappeared. Maybe there'd be a blurb in the newspaper about "road rage" or a "domestic incident", and then your friends would shrug their shoulders and hamster it away. Now, police bodycams, dashcams, security surveillance, phone recorders are widespread and not only can the story go everywhere, but there's a good chance you're only going to become even more famous if you to try to come up with a clever lie to make it look good.

Schlossberg is a warning to all men: having your life irrevocably destroyed is a very realistic consequence of losing frame.

In China noone would give a shit and it wouldn't make the news.

If it did, it would read, "Boorish White Foreigner and his 5.5 traitor girlfriend disturb the peace at microbrewery restaurant"

What ever happened to the good old days when gay lawyers were content with moving to San Francisco, finding a fixer upper Victorian, and making the neighborhood fabulous?

Send help. We're surrounding him, touching his things. We're blocking him, not letting him move. We're yelling things that aren't true, defaming him.
