"Is it normal to hate it when people speak Spanish?"
I'm sorry if you're the OP and you feel picked on. I'm also sorry if you choose to assume I'm being something other than I am. Furthermore, I'm sorry if you created an anonymous account just to respond. If so, I can't do anything about your insecurity, but I can point out that the annoyance was with the loudness of the words not the country of origin of the speaker. If the people involved had been speaking quietly, would the OP (or you, if you are the OP) say, "God, I hate people speaking Spanish. It's *so* quiet". No. So, for the final time, the problem is volume. Race is irrelevant and when it's used to support an argument, I'm dubious.
They aren't the OP, don't worry -- I am. They got my gender wrong, anyway :P
Yeah, you're right. It really is just that they're being loud. But I should have made it clear that it is ONLY Mexicans who do this. I suppose anywhere else, I shouldn't make a big deal about it, but I was filming my brother's graduation, so it really irritated me, and it was almost as though they didn't care about the people around them. Honestly, I shouldn't have brought race into it.
