It's not just that he claimed Hispanic was a separate race on the Census. If you read the post where it came from you'll see it's a bunch of presumptuous nonsense clearly written by someone who wasn't an American and has next to no understanding of American culture or social divisions. Even if you remove the bit about Hispanic being a separate race on the Census it still makes zero sense in the context of American society. I mean Gully effectively claimed that the Ecuadorian, Central American and Mexican communities in south central Minneapolis are not really any different than the Scandinavians and Germans all throughout Minnesota (who also don't have their own neighborhoods in Minneapolis either.)

And that's a city with a relatively small Hispanic population. If you look at somewhere like Phoenix or anywhere in Texas it becomes laughably absurd. Like on the level of pbrower or J. J.'s electoral "analysis".

You know BRTD one of the reasons I joined this forum was to learn things, in particular to learn things about a country I'm not from and have spent no more than about 20 days in my life. Sometimes in my enthusiasm I say some dumb sh**t but *shrug*, it's not like I care about the Hispanic thing in 2015 anymore, only to say that it is clearly a false and arbitrary grouping (which was part of my point to begin with). Disagree with me? no care.
