    HELLO! Spanish people are white. You should know this but i guess not. All people are mixed with some thing or another now in days. All people are beautiful. You are UGLY because you are so ignorant!!!!

    • Danielle says:

      Spanish ppl are not white.. Im puerto rican… U need to do ur research ma!

      • Olivia says:

        Hispanics CAN BE white. Dip shit. Especially if mixed retard. I’m half Cuban and i am white skinned naturally blonde hair and blue eyes. And some cubans are DARK skinned. And my brother is Half as well and he has black hair and dark brown eyes and is tanner. Geesh. Do YOUR research.

      • Amy says:

        Um… My dad is Puerto Rican and he’s white… So maybe you should do your research?
        Also, Spain is in Europe so “Spanish” doesn’t include Puerto Rican. Sure some, if not most, Puerto Ricans are of Spanish descent, but they also may have Native American, Italian, French, African, or any other descent.

      • laura says:

        you’re not spanish if your relatives are not from Spain and yes people from Spain are white I am Spanish and Mexican and most of my family is white while i am a little darker

        • I love you, Roger Scientist says:

          According to Lopac, if you’re not Anglo, you are not white. So Jennifer Farley is not white, considering she is Irish and Spanish. None of the above are Anglo.

    I dont think that oh big wow italian you know since I am. But Itallians came up with all the cool shit. There would have never been mobsters, gangsters or even gang bangers if it was not for itallians. All the good food. The romantic language.Yeah the Jersey Shore cast is pretty lame. Now I come from LA about as ghetto as you get but I am not trash I am rough and tough and my dad was a mobster but I dont sleep around and have my boobs hang out! Everyone has the right to be proud of you ethnicity but dont claim something that you are not. Especially if your portraying yourselves to be trash that is a discrace to the itallian race. Be yourself or be nothing!

    • rafael says:

      nicole,i don’t recall jwoww,saying shes italian.i love italian food by the way

    • carmen says:

      Actually the irish were the first mobsters so if it werent for the irish there would never be a mob…the language is derived from the latin language the same as Spanish german portuguise etc..just saying…as for the food…I absolutely love italian food
      ..but I completely agree with everything else…you should be proud of your ethnicity

Like ghetto black people call themselves ” ni**as” and ghetto puertoricans call themselves ” cacos” and ghetto white people call themselves ” white trash”. It’s not cool being a guido. They all have fake jewelry, crappy jobs, STD’s, skin cancer and very ignorant
