The problem isn't the script - it is the minds of those who decided to have a problem with this.

Croatia shoud deal with this by having both scripts everywhere instead of making this a contentious issue based on votes or statistics.

The current law is based on race - that is wrong. I reasonably think that if there are Cyrillic readers who need Cyrillic anywhere, then they could be expected to travel everywhere.

By the way, talk of a Croatian language is a nonsense - it is just a dialectical variant of Serbo-Croatian.

There are lots of selfish and nasty people who use this issue because they are nasty and selfish.

Under the current Croatian law, an ethnic minority that makes up 30 percent in an area has a right to the official use of its language and alphabet - the Serbian Cyrillic in the case of the Serb minority. But under the proposal tabled by the Vukovar group, "a minority" would in the future constitute 50 percent of a local population.
================================
If 50% is adopted, then that would make the Croatian a minority too. Will they have the right to use Croatian as their language?

There are strong similarities between the Catholic Croats and Catholic Ukrainians.
What are they? Both are bred attack dogs for Catholicism. They have been brainwashed many centuries ago to be the shock troops for the Vatican and remain the same to this day.
Croats hate Serbs because they are Orthodox; Ukrainian Catholics hate Russians because they are Orthodox.
What did the Catholics in Ukraine do as soon as gaining power? Banned ethnic Russians from Parliament and banned the Russian language. What have the Croats done? They ethnically cleansed most Serbs from Croatia and now want to have Serbian Cyrillic banned in Croatia. However, the Croats want Serbs in Bosnia to help them – sound strange?
What happened during WW2? The Ukrainian Catholics were on the side of the Nazis and murdered Russians. The Croats did exactly the same but with Serbs.
These are facts not my opinion.
