Puerto Ricans are NOT American. I have never understood why they try to promote that idea. It is really kind of pathetic because everyone knows that Puerto Rico is just an American colony. Do Puertos really not realize that Puerto Rico is just an American colony and that they are just conquered peoples?

There is nothing American about them. They cannot celebrate the 4th of July because it wasn't their country that was liberated. They cannot celebrate Thanksgiving because they don't even know the meaning. Purto Ricans generally look nothing like Americans. Sometimes the black and mulatto ones can pass for American (and they are always trying to) as long as they keep their mouth shut but as soon as they open their mouths it's a wrap because Americans are NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKERS with Northern European names. We speak English and do not have Spanish names. Real Americans are not Hispanic, only immigrants (usually illegal) are. Names like "Maria", "Consuela", and "Juan" no son nombres de los Americanos.

Real Americans do not consider you American, to us you are just island Mexicans. What really makes me angry is when the black/mulatto Puerto Ricans imitate the culture of black Americans. Do you guys do this so that people won't know your Hispanic and will think/assume you are really American? That is pathetic, and black American do not appreciate it. Can you please take back Zoe Saldana and Lala Vasquez, because we don't want them and they are not fooling anybody.

Puerto Rico is occupied territory and Puerto Ricans have so little pride in their nation and culture that they are spreading their legs for America and allowing it to f*ck Puerto Rico doggystyle just so its citizens can call themselves Americans despite the fact that Americans do not consider them one of us. I know there must be some proud Puerto Ricans out there who have more dignity than that, so why don't you guys tell me what you think about Puerto Ricans calling themselves American when there's nothing American about them?

You are the one who is insulting.....you know well enough how and why we are AMERICAN CITIZENS, and if you are sincere as to not knowing then read a book, a history book and surely you will be enlightened.

You are "American citizens" because we conquered your island, but you are not real Americans. But Puerto Ricans are always yelling and screaming about how proud they are to be Americans when really we only extended them citizenship so we could continue to exploit them. What is there to be proud of in that?

All the black and mulatto Puerto Ricans I know try to pass themselves off as African American, dressing like us, listening to our music, talking like us, and they will only tell you they are Puertos if you ask them and I think that's dishonest. Puerto Ricans need to get some pride and stop trying to steal other people's national and cultural identity.

Dear Black American Prince:

If you dont want to be insulted dont try to put us down. First of all you have to understand that America is a continent, that is why whether you live in Mexico, Puerto Rico, or the United States of America, you are an american, because you live in the continent not the USA.

It is still sad that some minorities like yours for example keep talking about America like the United States is the only country there, please get an education.

Your comments about Zoe Zaldaņa and LaLa shows nothing but fear, you feel threatened about our beauty no matter our skin color, Africa influenced our country so I dont undertstand why you try to put us down.

My country Yes Puerto Rico, didnt open the doors to the United Stated, we were invaded by the USA 1898, and we were given the citizenship in order for our me to go to war. We are a territory of the United States just like the US Virging islands and we are all USA citizens whether you like it or not.

So sad that in a country with so many opportunities there is still narrow minded people like you, you are a black person and you are calling yourself a true american??? If you are so proud and feel so offended, go back to africa, as far as I am concerned I live in Puerto Rico.

And dont get me wrong I am not blind, I fight with my people too, but is there is something we dont like is for others to come with their ignorance and try to put us down.

Your comments are nothing but fear and ignorance, dont blame us to have the beauty, whether our skin is lighter or darker, dont blame us for been beautiful.

Why do you keep talking about Americans being jealous of you, ain't nobody jealous of Zoe Saldana or ol' hard-face Lala Vasquez. They don't hold a candle to women like Beyonce and Kelly so I don't know what you think you're talking about. The only ones who are famous over here are one s who can pass for black Americans, other than that we just think y'all look like Mexicans and believe me there is NOTHING to be jealous of there.

As for me going back to Africa, we built this country and we ain't goin NO d*mn where, we are going to plop our black asses down here until the Rapture! Just make sure YOU stay in Puerto Rico!

You guys still haven't answered the question? Why are Puerto Ricans steady trying to be American? Why don't they just deny statehood and go on about their business? Why would they want to be a state in a country where they are not wanted?

Daily Horoscope for June 2

Pisces

Having to bow down to convention or limitations is enough to make you want to scream right now, and you'll do your utmost to rebel in any way you can. Be careful about this because you could easily get on the wrong side of someone who has power or authority over you. It feels as though you're battling with forces that want to keep you under control, and you don't like it one bit.
