As I've probably pointed out before, you would be pleasantly surprised just how well some of these individuals (and not necessarily do they have to be of Hispanic origin) actually understand English-especially on payday!

A judge should have tossed their asses in prison and if they are immigrants or illegal aliens then their asses should have been deported after they served time in prison.Last time I checked you had to know some English in order to be an American citizen.
