I’ve hears stories of some Americans telling other people who are speaking a non-English language “This is America, speak English!” even if the conversation has nothing to do with them. Why do they do this?

    It’s not JUST an American thing. People are biased against outsiders and people that are different.

      No. That’s not a fix. You’re still focusing on this being American, while it is pretty universal.
