Maybe the President of Puerto Rico can hand it to him personally.

You completely missed the point.

No, one of our hotels is near the cockfighting place (near is an understatement, it's right next to it).



That area seems pretty benign to me. Last year took a vacay and stayed a week at El San Juan Hotel and went to a few of the restaurants/walked around at night and stuff. Seemed fairly chill around there. Maybe nothing phases me?

I don’t think we did. We heard what you said loud and clear.

Yeah that area is fine. Isla Verde is touristy and safe enough. Just don’t go west of Pizza City!

Nah, man...you blew that dog whistle loud enough that we all heard it. We got it. Loud and clear.

Glad to see more continental folks on this thread calling out this obvious ethoncentric dogwhistle for what it is. Getting tired as a PR native of having to constantly defend against this persistent Insular Cases styled trope from the civics-challenged cohort of CONUS dwellers. It's def encouraging, maybe we will see political parity/enfranchisement for PR in the US Congress in my lifetime after all.

I have a feeling you are more third world than Puerto Rico.

Growing up, my mother did not want to go to Hawaii. It requires a passport is what she told me. Absolutely serious.
