    Otro puertorriqueño que viene huyendo de la “Isla del Espanto”…Nadie habla de ésta otra migración, la de los boricuas..A diferecencia de miles de mexicanos y centroamericanos, ellos llegan con sus pasaportes y dándoselas de “American citizens”. Para eso sí que no reclaman la “independencia para su isla”

    Partisano, no llegan con pasaporte porque no lo
    Necesitan, ni llegan dandoselas de american citizens, lo son desde que nacen. Asi que tragate tu odio y tu envidia y dea a los demas ser felices con sus logros.

    Lo son desde que nacen inmerecidamente. Si fuera el gobierno de Estados Unidos les daba la independencia a ver por cuánto tiempo podían mantenerse por sí mismos. Lo triste es que no pueden no pronosticar un aguacero en su isla…La que nos espera !!!

    Uy mijo pero que amargura, la envidia es mala, tal vez tu tuviste que salir en balsa o brincar la cerca, y hubieses deseado haber nacido en PR o EU por eso hablas tan feo, por envidioso.
    Felicidades Anthony!! Que tus exitos sigan creciendo! Y que la gente envidiosa se muera de rabia!

    Puerto Rico no llega ni ha perfume. Porque siempre ha sido una colonia. No saben ni decir correctamente el nombre de su propio país. Siempre dicen “Puelto Rico”..Ignorantes !

      brother, por que tanto odio. algo te quito la isla? pues muchos buenos profesionales han salido de Borinquen y, para que te vayas acostumbrando, seguiran saliendo.
      utilizando comentarios discriminatorios no le da validez a tu punto de vista, es mas demuestra la ausencia de argumentos. creo que tu admiracion por cierto candidato a la presidencia de estados unidos te esta dando el errado motivo para “trollear” a los caribenos.
      Tu ignorancia en asuntos geopoliticos no te da la justificacion para un ataque de estos.
