Tri-Met employee highlight: Making a difference
Whether he’s helping a Spanish-speaking rider over the phone, mingling with riders on board a bus, or working with community partners, Martín González—TriMet’s limited English proficiency outreach coordinator—uses his finely-tuned voice of advocacy to help others.
I started a search to see what else I could find out about Martin Gonzalez and his salary and one of my first Google results came from a very reputable source: myself.
I forgot that back in January of 2008 I reported how $500,000 was being spent on this outreach to our non-English speaking friends.
I'm so glad to hear that Mr. Gonzalez is still at the public trough and helping keep Tri-Met crime free. No wait, that would be a security guard. I'm glad that Mr. Gonzalez is helping criminal aliens navigate our taxpayer funded transit system.

... because obviously, if you speak Spanish, you must be an illegal alien ...
... but there's nothing bigoted about saying so ...
... not at all. ;-)
Again, if you CANNOT speak english when trying to communicate in our country, then most likely you are illegal. What is "bigoted" about observing the obvious? So...your saying they are doing it for shits n' giggles? Jokes on us then I guess. C'mon 8:39, really?
Anon 10:58, FALSE. Most Spanish-speakers in the U.S. are legal residents. See the relevent census data, compare it to even the most outlandish estimates of the illegal immigrant population, and do the math. You are either lying your ass off, or you're an idiot and believe your own racist horseshit. Either way, you are wrong.
Let me help you with this, Miglavs: Do you even understand what "all Labrador retrievers are dogs but not all dogs are Labrador retrievers" actually means? Maybe put on your thinking cap and try to figure out how that might apply your latest post?
I was not refering to all spanish speakers, you ignorant fool. I was talking about certain situations in which, lets say their kids have to translate for them in public places for instance. The legal spanish speakers most likely DO speak english when in those situations and therefore do not require a translator. How is that observation racist horseshit Anon 5:47? Or should I also include your earlier post at 8:39? Hey everyone, if you do not have ONLY nice things to say about illegal immigration on this site, then D-bags like this have a problem with it. You must be or have many relatives upset about the current anchor bastard debate.
