The owner of Leon’s says he’s a person of tradition. He says that his English Only policy is a matter of tradition. That it is tradition in this country that we speak English.

If Ron Schneider, the owner of Leon’s knew this country’s history, he would know that before the European set foot on this land, the tradition of this country was the language of the First Nations.

English and Spanish changed that tradition. So it’s not a matter of tradition. It’s a matter of foolishness on his part.

Spanish has been and will continue to be part of this nation’s traditions.
