Yep. Last time in traffic court, the court had to supply an interpreter for the Latino fella who was speeding. His excuse? Had to get his American Citizen kid to the hospital in time to legalize the paperwork... Had no $$ (but had the kid) so haggled with the judge about doing community service - he didn't think he should have to since he worked all week and didn't want to work on the weekend...
Rubbed me raw because here we are paying an interpreter to translate for this kid, and he doesn't even want to pay a fine, is embarrassed at working roadside, upset he has to putin hours on a weekend... and meanwhile when I slipped a disk in my neck I was ignored for an extra 1/2 hour because another Latino family showed up with their new legal citizen... demanding immediate attention and an interpreter!
