Isnt it conceited for English speaking people in the US to not learn other languages?

Seems like many people in the US get mad if someone doesn't speak English. They be thinking if someone comes to the US they better know English or they don't deserve to be here. So how come when they go to some other country for like vacation they still expect everyone to know English.

Nothing like generalizing some behavior to everyone in the county.

Visiting is different than living here and not learning at least some English. You cannot assimilate without it. I've known people who came here and said they would not lower themselves to learn English.
How conceited is it to come here to live, expect not only to not learn English but that society here accomodates them only knowing their own language??
