Do you somehow have the impression, that YOUR viewpoint will change mine? Do you think that by playing word games you will convince me that it is a better idea to have the signs in a given country in different languages?
I'm really curious about this.
Obviously having the signs in any given country in different languages is.... STOOOOOPID. So I'm honestly curious as to...
1. Why you feel that way.
2. Your reasons for feeling that way.
I mean I've asked this many times in this topic, and still haven't gotten an answer to that.
in my opinion all street signs, by law, SHOULD be in latin text. the 27 letter alphabet more or less.
in my opinion, the govt should never do anything about the language on any signage for any business.
In my opinion, all govt posted signage should be in the same 27 letter alphabet.
not "english", because thats a point i destroyed in 2 seconds with just the street i live on. if they want to call it "Yang Street" that's fine too, even in China town.
the reason you dont get it, is because you havent tried to since the starts. you said "good job China", which implies you want the same done here, as do all of your posts saying you want the same done here. i'm pointing out to you the illegality and the inconsistency with the constitution this presents, in america, where we live.
In america, the country we live in, governed by the guidelines of the constitution and legally bound to it, the govt cant make linguistic changes to a private business' sign, unless the content is lewd such as porn or gore. when i told you this you claimed any business with a store front on a street is "public". i showed you that's not true too. and now here you are accusing me of word games. because i showed you the first amendment, explained it, and explained basic govt/business relationships from a legal standpoint.
learn to take a lesson from people who know more about a topic than you. if i ever need a quality shoe shining balm or lessons on how to microwave meals for one i'll be sure to hit you up.
but to answer overall, i dont give a shit about your opinions, im stating inarguable facts about law, that u argue every time. because you're the one on the leash and im just out for a walk.
