No Hablo Español

Police were called to a restaurant in Anaheim, Calif., after a customer went on a rant because the menu was written in Spanish as well as English. “It says it in Mexican!” he screamed. “We’re not in Mexico, we’re in America! Above the border. The red, the line. I’m an American!” The restaurant owner says the unidentified man screamed racist insults at other customers as well as employees, and when asked to leave threatened to call “Immigration” because “you’re not legal!” What sort of restaurant would include both English and Spanish on its menu in southern California — which used to belong to Mexico? A taco shop. (RC/KTTV Los Angeles) ...Someone that racist and stupid should stick to purely American foods, like pizza, ramen, and bratwurst.
