Conservative radio host fired over video scolding landscape workers for speaking Spanish

A conservative radio host in New Hampshire was fired after live streaming herself on Facebook verbally accosting landscapers who were speaking Spanish while asking if they were legally in the country.

"It's America. You should be speaking English," says Dianne Ploss, then-host of "The Dianna Ploss Show" on WSMN-1590 while filming herself talking to landscaping workers. "Is anybody here illegal? Are these guys illegal?"

After being asked by an African American man why she was harassing the crew, Ploss responded by saying during the recording, "He's a Black man and he's going to protect the brown man from this white woman whose practicing white privilege because she happened to walk by and heard this guy talking to all of these guys doing this work in Spanish."

"We at WSMN value freedom of speech, freedom of expression and assembly. We will not tolerate discrimination, racism or hatred," the radio station, which is based in Nashua, said in a statement. "We continue to present and offer on air opportunities for discussion, education and the exchange of opinions and ideas."

1. What the actual what did she think would happen when she live-streamed herself being racist?

2. She thinks that she is defending some ideal of free speech and "western values"

Trump has emboldened idiots to act out in the open. If there is any silver lining, it is that racist idiots are easier than ever to identify. Racists had been working to gain some sophistication to hide their affiliations prior to the election of Trump. Now it's a free for all with people trying to out do each other on the bigotry.

3. If you think the likes of Limbaugh and Hannity are bad, you should hear these local radio folk.

I'm in a rural area, and we have 24/7 hate radio stations that run some local talent.

It's like a contest to see who can be most hateful and shocking.

4. The poor dear would die in my world.

All my immediate neighbors are multilingual. The kids next door speak three languages -- the languages of their grandmothers. I love listening to them over the fence.

40% of the children in our schools do not speak English at home.

It's obvious at our local WalMart where most of the clerks are bilingual English/Spanish and half the customers speak Spanish as their preferred language.

My wife's grandparents were immigrants. English was her first language because her grandparents wanted their children and grandchildren to be "successful" in the U.S.A. My wife speaks Spanish as well.

This seems to be true everywhere in the U.S.A.. Immigrants learn enough English to do their jobs, their children are bilingual, and their grandchildren are fully fluent in English.

Native Americans are the only people who speak the native languages of America.

I grew up in 99% white English speaking U.S.A. but I was never at home there. Leaving that place was one of the best things I ever did. I'd never go back.

My wife and I chose not to raise our own children in such a place.

I've been reading about population trends in articles like this:

Fertility rate: 'Jaw-dropping' global crash in children being born

The world is ill-prepared for the global crash in children being born which is set to have a "jaw-dropping" impact on societies, say researchers.

Falling fertility rates mean nearly every country could have shrinking populations by the end of the century.

And 23 nations - including Spain and Japan - are expected to see their populations halve by 2100.

Countries will also age dramatically, with as many people turning 80 as there are being born.

It's pretty clear to me that nations intolerant of immigrants are screwed. Their old people will be tossed into the sea and they themselves will die alone and bitter, inheriting wealth, but nothing of value.
