It also shows the enemy that you sympathize with them by doing the same thing they do in the streets. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

| Okay, let me rephrase it. It gives the American who burns the flag a commonality with the enemy. It would show you both disdain the American flag. That is sympathizing. Not "you" personally. Is that better? | |||||||||||||||||||||

you: 1 : the one or ones being addressed -- used as the pronoun of the second person singular or plural in any grammatical relation except that of a possessive <you may sit in that chair> <you are my friends> <can I pour you a cup of tea> -- used formerly only as a plural pronoun of the second person in the dative or accusative case as direct or indirect object of a verb or as object of a preposition; compare THEE, THOU, YE, YOUR, YOURS 2 : ONE 2a <after a while, it grows on you> To provide a clue for the clueless, if you aren't including me in the subject group you are talking about, do not use the word "you". For example: "Okay, let me rephrase it. It gives the American who burns the flag a commonality with the enemy. It would show that THAT American and the enemy both disdain the American flag."

2) Let me put this in certain terms that hopefully not even you (do I mean "you") can understand. If you (alias) respond to me in a post, and you (alias) say "you", it is English language interpretation that you, alias, are including me in whatever you, alias, are referring to. Just out of curiousity, are you (alias) part of the crowd that state people should have to be able to speak English in this country? Because I would find that hilarious...

| We live in the United States of America, a nation of immigrants, not England. We don't have a national language. Just because English is the majority, doesn't mean people should be forced to learn it if they want to live in the United States. Just so long as they understand that if they don't learn English then they probably wont have that great of a chance of being successful or getting a job. But that doesn't mean that English should be compulsory.

Immigrants came to this country since it's beginning and everyone learned English. They were proud to be Americans and proud to learn the language. English was the language of our nation whether it was official or not. If someone can't learn the language after coming to live here, I have no time for them. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
