Fun fact:  Puerto Rico is such trash that when cartographers made a mistake no one cared.

The ISLAND should have been called San Juan

The PORT should have been called Puerto Rico (literally rich port)

Some guy messed them up but literally no one cares so now we have an island where still no one cares

FYI, puertorricans ALL ARE US citizens. So that means that they will ALWAYS be US citizens. So essentially there is nothing that can be done.

When me and my wife got married (90’s) we flew to Puerto Rico to go on a cruise.  On the drive

from the airport to the cruise ship I saw some buildings with bars on the windows going up to the

third floor.  I told my wife that I had not even seen that in Memphis.

Virginia and South Carolina gave that up voluntarily but it didn't work.

I'm positive we could make it work involuntarily for an island nation. They're going to be really butthurt when we keep Guam though. No one cares about Mariana with their child labor and low population

I used to feel like that. Now not so much.

Would you say that to White farmers in South Africa today?  I wouldn’t. They should have left long ago. Now, they are fighting for their lives and getting slaughtered because of misplaced loyalty and sentimentality.

If the US keeps going down this path of stupidity and makes it impossible to live in peace at least I have options.

Everyone has to decide for themselves what’s their best course of action.  Other people have options based on their finances. I have options based on citizenship.  It’s effectively all the same as far as I’m concerned.

I've long said it'd be cheaper to pay Spain to take it back.  Funny thing is a childhood friend of mine who was born there has always said the same thing, and most of his relatives still live there.  He loves his relatives and visiting but hates their politics and is always happy to get back here.

Honestly, all of the Puerto Ricans I've ever associated with have been fine. At the end of the day, we can't really cut them off, because they are Americans. Honestly, they should be a state, and have no problem admitting that I'm purely opposed to that only because I don't want more democrats to any more political power than they already have.

Because it a colony of the USA, just like guam, US virgin Islands etc. And its most likely going to be the 51st state someday.

Besides boricua chicks are hot, they get social security cards from and pay tax to uncle sugar just like any other US citizens. Only thing they can't do is vote for the US president or congressmen.

Fuckmefunny, they were made citizens of the USA before the indigenous tribes were,

we didn't get to be citizens of the good old USA until the indian reorganization act of 1934, course we got the dawes roles, tribal designation, cdib cards,

uncle sugar made all the treaties so couldn't  keep on with genocide, so they done the indian reorganization act of 1934 with the thoughts to breed the tribal blood out of the tribes so once they're less than a 1/4 blood we would be considered of indian decent.

Which is still genocide of a people, by taking away their language, heritage, beliefs, religion etc. And integrating them and their offspring by generations into your society.

Puerto Rico is a dump outside of the rich white affluent areas. We have a family vacation home on the beach in Rincon inside a gated mini city with guards. The locals are not allowed inside our mini city only the rich American land owners. It's pretty crazy that outside the gates it's one big dump of an island. Sure there are a few parts of San Juan that are nice, but most of San Juan (and PR at large) is a 3rd world shit hole on par with any random town in mexico.

That, and Puerto Ricans in general are pretty damn rude and hostile to english speaking Americans like me. they tend to look down on us and I usually get the "not welcome here" feeling when out fooling around in one of the towns from the locals.

You're exactly right, and absolutely none of this is covered in the MSM, ever. You'll never see it.

It could be argued that the nationalists actually succeeded because puerto rico is an enduring financial burden on the USA. They pay almost zero taxes, and minimum 42% of puerto ricans living on the island are on welfare.

They have a program there similar to SNAP but more like a dream come true....  it allows them to receive a large part of that benefit as cash.
