I whole hardly support RD's in having English speaking only in the workplace. I have worked in the fast food industry an spanish as well as Najavo was spoken, while working.

you are right all laws were written for the white race why dont we send these navajo back to boarding school and teach them that there is only one language the one that you sailed over with from europe WHITE POWER..........

This is a totally backward comment. The people that sailed over spoke many different languages. Columbus himself was sailing for spain (spanish). The fact of the matter is that business in done in english. More than half of the Chinese with thier billions almost a third of the worlds population speak english. In Japan the language of the majority of its people speak enlish In Russia movies are shown in English. Across Europe children are learning English. It is the universal language. Everyone has the option of learning thier own language, however English on the other hand is a must in todays world regardless of any policies out there.

America isn't owned by you or the english speaking community. This is a democracy, and the language a person speaks is not important to their identity as an American.

Grow up and adapt.

Oh, so now the code talkers singlehandedly won WWII? Learn your own history. The code talkers contribution has been completely over-rated in an effort to highlight minimal native american contributions.
