Most proud cultures would react the same, in fact, many are worse and their cultures aren't even threatened by state multiculturalism, like Japan and Denmark for instance.

I would argue that most "proud cultures" are very racist at their heart. I say that and I'm a Dane. Danes are so racist.
There's also a difference between being proud enough of your culture to want to share it freely with others and enacting tyrannical legislation (like the Sign Law) to protect your increasingly isolated culture.
