@matuzalem Yeah I never have understood what exactly their status is. That’s so wrong, they should have had state status for several decades by now.
at one point i remember murmurs that this was going to be addressed. but that was a few years ago already,
@peeppeepcircus @cjcrew not going to happen in our lifetimes.
@matuzalem @peeppeepcircus I’m so disappointed in this country. We had such potential but we followed the rich instead of our conscience.
@matuzalem @peeppeepcircus Yeah, unfortunately that is true.
@matuzalem I did not know all this about Puerto Rico. Thank you for educating us. @cjcrew
@matuzalem The US did this?
@matuzalem I was born in 58, that is way too long for us to have screwed them over like that. This wouldn’t have happened if the majority population had been white.
@cjcrew but yeah I agree with your sentiment. They need a Senator or 2.
