I was at a seasonal hiring event and a Puerto Rican couple were in front of me applying to the job. The person at the desk asked a co-worker after looking at their paperwork,"Are they American?" I know PR and the USA has some static between them but I just had to bite my tongue and roll my eyes. I served with many Puerto Ricans in the Army. We considered each other brother Americans.
