Taking Sides on Language-Barrier Issue

Just when you think you’ve heard everything, The Times comes out with another ultraliberal editorial (“Bilingual Skills Can Be Life, Death Matter,” Jan. 24). Instead of encouraging those who choose to immigrate to the U.S. where, incidentally, the official language is English, The Times feels it is up to emergency personnel to learn the language of all those who choose to live here. Can you imagine any other country considering such a ridiculous idea?
