Default Insulting

I would be quite insulted by Bob's comments if I am a landed immigrant who is unable to write very well in English. A person's ability to use proper grammar and sentence structure is very dependant on that person's background which includes, but not limited to, their educational, cultural, social, economical, and even their demographical background. To make such a comment violates that person's constitutional right to express themselves freely REGARDLESS of their ability to do so in the English language.
An individual's tolerance of those who are not fluent writing in the English language should be kept to themselves - to publicly express your intolerance is otherwise known as racism.
