Do Americans go to great lengths accommodating foreign language speakers but have little tolerance for native born bad English users?

    Welllllllll in actual fact Americans, (and Brits too for that matter) are known for not accommodating those who cannot speak English, we are all pretty intolerant and I see this on a daily basis..  Or do you mean accommodating as in allowing them to live there? Well again, Strumpet's followers are pretty anti immigrants so again this would indicate otherwise.. 

    I would hesitate to call regional accents and dialects bad English.
