Steaks, a cheesesteak restaurant owned by Joey Vento is being sued by the City Chairman Rev. James S. Allen, Jr. Joey Vento posted a sign asking it's patrons when ordering to speak english that we live in America. It appears in my opinion, that the city fathers has sold out America. Now the Illegal aliens are being backed by Chairman Rev. Allen, commissioner of Human Rights. This story hit the live wire of the associated press and now Philly is worried about there image. This law suit really shows the stars and stripes with the city of Philly when Americans are being killed in the Iraq war and Philly is all up in the air over a restaurant posting a sign to order in English. I attempted to send an email to the city, but it seems the city has deleted it's email addresses. I've tried three different emails listed on the city site and the emails bounced back.

Sounds like Joey unwittingly proposed the event. Since there are no responses, it seems that people don't know about this or they are afraid to respond. Either way, it seems to me, that it leaves the door open for governments, who are supposed to serve the people, to do anything they want. I think this should go nationwide via email, and I'm starting it. Are Americans really the one's who do not have rights?
