We have deviated from my comment and I find myself arguing a point I didn't intend to make.
If the strangers are in a group that I am a part of I feel they should try to be part of that group. If I was on a fishing charter and there where two bi lingual people and myself fishing then I would be upset if they chose to not speak in the language I could understand, even if they where strangers.
If there are two people sitting on the bus talking to each other then I don't care.
My point was that if I was in a situation where if I was speaking English and I thought it was excluding someone and I could speak their language then I would do that and I would be disapointed if if I wasn't extended the same offering.
Is it normal to really hate it when people speak Spanish in the store?

Ok, we agree on that, then. My point is that the OP is offended by anybody ever speaking Spanish in front of them in the US, and that's silly.

Hmmm, I just re-read the OP's story and I agree, it is a bit silly.
