No fooling! In the Items Wanted section. Bilingual I can tolerate, but I feel ethnically excluded by this ad :nono: And before anyone says maybe our ads should be too - one of the requirements for LEGAL immigration is to have an understanding of english and attend classes to learn it.

The U.S. doesn't have an official language, the only state to is Hawaii.

Well it should be! It is unifying and not a white only language, my great grand parents learned it and they were Italian. Latins btw.

The requirement to speak and understand English is for Naturalization only, not for immigration. And yes, The U.S. of America do not have an official language.

Years ago when my grandparents were alive, you had to learn English. They were both legal immigrants and got their citizenship. Today people don't want to learn and feel they don't have to learn it. Personnally, I think it's :bs:
If I were living in another country I would learn the language.

Might not be the "official" language however, it is the most used in the country. In the end... if they want to post something that IS NOT in English then they are only limiting themselves and the audience that will receive that message.

Maybe that was their purpose in doing so.

Obviously they read English just fine. I must get at least 5 calls per week from someone who is finding it "impossible" to use our classifieds, i.e. registering an account and posting their ad. Mr. Español apparently had no problem.

Maybe this person is looking for a foreman for a hispanic crew and is tired of getting applicants that say they can speak spanish. Seems like a good way to cut through the BS.

It appears to say
"I have a small, square inside window that I need covered with gypsum panels, and finished correctly. I put in 4 new windows that were a little smaller than the originals, and the drywall workers had to leave (or possibly were fired ??) and etching or engraving outside, so it could be put."
