Who else is in the discussion?

---just cutting these off because I know they'll get brought up..
*J.J is listed at 6'0. But he says himself he he is 5'10.
**..Just because J.J was born on the Island of Puerto Rico, and has a Spanish last name doesn't mean he's NOT white. He is. Just look at him. It's obvious his ancestors are mostly, if not exclusively from Spain.

He's quick and disruptive to a team's defense off the bench. Don't think he's a starting caliber guy ot anything.

White = Race

Puerto Rican = Nationality

Not to mention there was a lot of French/German/Portugese immigration in addition to Spain.

Puerto Rico is like mainland US, it had black slaves, indigenous people and a lot of white immigrants. There are people of mixed ancestry like J Lo but there are plenty of white people just like in (continental) US.

I'm from the Bronx where Puerto Ricans are abundant. They don't consider themselves white. You call them white and they get mad.

Just sayin.

But people who actually live in Puerto Rico Do...

"In the 2010 United States Census the total of Puerto Ricans that identified as White was 75.8%.[20][16] The European heritage of Puerto Ricans comes primarily from one source: Spaniards (including Canarians, Catalans, Castilians, Galicians, Asturians, Andalusians, and Basques)."
