If I'm smart enough to be able to speak MORE than one language why do I have to pretend I'm not? Because it makes YOU uncomfortable?
Look, I agree those of us who speak another language should not use it in a way that is rude or intentionally exclusionary - to me that is uncalled for.
But the very concept that, "one should speak English and only English. Never any other language" is NOT American to me. Perhaps a bit Nazi Germany, but not American.
