I think the flaw in this statement is with the given. Where does it say that we treat criminals like less than equal? Criminals are given the rights of Due Process, which realistically contains all of the bill of rights within it. We give criminal the necessities to live and every right given to them in the Constitution.
I am not sure of the reason for this thread. If you wanted a chat about making English the official language of the USA, then that is what you will get, but if you wanted a thread about whether we should force immigrants (legal or not) to learn our language and value our ideas and honor our holidays, then you should have asked for that.
Just because the official language of the USA could be English, doesn't mean that there will be a shortage of other signs/labels/books in other languages. Go to Mexico, or Europe or travel to another country. What will you see? Signs, in many different languages, many in English, and Spanish. The solution? Be active , don't force others to learn your way, adapt to the changes in society and the culture of the United States, LEARN Spanish, It will make you desirable and marketable, and you will have unimaginable job security.
