At the risk of being pedantic-I’m RMFE till they are about to fall out every time someone on TV or a thread says something like Zimmerman is hispanic-not white. I wish people would not confuse race and ethnicity-they are two totally different things-there are only three races known on earth-Negroid, Mongoloid and Caucasoid-AKA black, asian/oriental and white. The left loves to call every ethnic group a “race”, which is incorrect.

There are as many ethnic groups as there are places for them to be from. Hispanics ARE “white” for the most part, but they can also be black (Carribean, parts of S America, etc) or Asian (Phillipines), or a combination of all three races. We also know now that the three races are not pure, and probably haven’t been for 10’s of thousands of years, anyway.

I remember awhile back, well informed newsreaders used to say things like ethnic Serbians, “ethnic Tibetans”, ethnic Nigerians, ethnic Basques etc. correctly identifying people in ethnic groups. What ever happened to that?

And if one is properly PC-Zimmerman is an ethnic Hispanic or Latino-or a Hispanic Caucasian...
