Do you consider Angel Garcia racist ?

[tommyg6]

Yes he is racist.

[killakali]

You're right on that Puerto Ricans come in all shades, but they're still Black, no matter how the skin-color mix turned out for a certain person.

Genetics are more important than skin color.

I'm not dark-skinned, but ain't no one gon' tell me I ain't Black. I know my history.

it depends bro. there are mexicans with black blood and with arab blood too. but not all have them. only thing for sure all latinos have is spanish blood bro. i am sure i can find some ricans without a gota of black blood but i am sure most have at least a little bit but that doesn't mean they are black. if a person is 40% taino 40% spanish 10% other euro and 10% african don't make him black. makes him latino

[Jamie harris]

Apparently he's not racist as he is part african
Thoughts...

Isn't he Puerto Rican from Philadelphia? Maybe I'm wrong not sure!!! The bloke is a complete prat Hope if it's Ppv he's showboating don't pay off. Who else can't stand Danny Garcia's hair

[RussB23]

I consider him an idiot.

Wtf? If a word is considered "racist" because someone of a particular ethnicity says it and is demonized as a POS for it, yet it is considered acceptable for someone of another ethnicity to use the word, the person or people making that specific determination are racist.

It shows a direct bias against one ethnicity or perceived "race". You see a "white" person use the word and they are a vile POS, when that person themselves might be of a heritage that has experienced tragic racial discrimination.

A person who is offended by another person using a certain word because of past racial injustices, when the person using the word has a claim to past racial injustices, defeats the argument altogether.

Long story-short is if a word is considered racist......... DON'T USE IT AT ALL. By selectively deciding when something is racist or not, you undermine your cause and paint yourself as a racist, hypocrite.

Just food for thought.

You're not even White.

It doesn't work that way.

While ****** weren't imported to Mexico to the same degree as in the Caribbean, they were still there.

So, actually, even though many Mexicans don't know about it, the average Mexican is Black, too.

Mexicans, much like Puerto Ricans, are a mix.

There is no Puerto Rican who is actually from here that isn't Black.

Not one.

Genetic studies prove otherwise, and Puerto Ricans openly accept that they're a mix of at least three "races." It's basic knowledge on the island.

The Puerto Ricans who are telling you that they don't have a "drop" of Black blood are either ignorant or lying. Have them do a DNA test, and let's see what comes back.

Now, as to what you said about percentages, you're listing them wrong:

"The average Puerto Rican individual carries 12% Native American, 65% West Eurasian (Mediterranean, Northern European and/or Middle Eastern) and 20% Sub-Saharan African DNA."

When you divide all those categories, it's borderline an even split between everything. Puerto Ricans are a mixed-race people.

Moreover, even if, hypothetically, a specific "exception" of an individual were to tilt in the way you're claiming, they would still be Black.

20% wouldn't mean that only their feet are Black, or that only their arms are Black. If you have Black DNA, then you're Black. It certainly doesn't equate to African ancestry being "negligible." Human beings aren't statistics, and that's without considering that 20% of African ancestry is a huge number, anyway.

You're ignorant of history, and of how the human body is composed. PR was taken over by the slave trade once the colonists arrived, so much so that the average for African DNA is a little bit higher than even their Native American DNA. African might even be the highest out of all, considering that the Eurasian portion has a few diverse subgroups.

Try telling a Puerto Rican that they're only White. LOL

That would only work with a racist, or someone who doesn't know their own background because they grew up in the states or something.

Heck, if I had the money, I'd take a DNA test just to show you how easy it is to prove my point. I plan to, one day. Ask your friends to do the same.

So italians, spaniards and portuguese are black too since the moors invaded them and they have traces of black blood? Come on bro. If a guy like Carlos Ponce who is almost as white as Canelo has 1% black blood, %70 European and 19% Taino that doesn't make him black. He is latino. Just because you have a trace of black blood doesnt make you black. I'm Mexican and if 40% of my ancestry is european that doesn't make me white. Means I am latino which is combination of various nationalities with Spanish blood being the common bond.

Some Ricans probably have over 40% african blood and others none or very little. Having some black blood and being black are two very different things. Same for Cubans and Dominicans

[KeyboardWarrior]

The guy is mentally ill. I fear there are others here with a similar illness as they sound too similar

[WesternChamp]

i dont think he's racist. rude with no class, yes, but racist? i havent heard him say anything racist. if you're talking about the immigrant comment, that's not even that bad.
