Dig deeper and you've got haplogroup. I'm an H by the way.

blacknight,



Lol. What, so that they can violently retaliate against them?

True!!!!!, I would add that the vast majority of hispanics are mexican-americans, heavily native-american, hispanics as a group expected to reach 100 million by 2045, so do we really want to **** them off???

Looking at the precipitous drop in illegal immigration from SOB; think again.

Besides; many so-called 'Hispanics' have nothing but contempt for those Latinos who came here illegally.

The Colossus of the North is awakening, my friends------and, he is pissed.

Polls and facts don't support that statement.

Haplogroup


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search
In the study of molecular evolution, a haplogroup is a group of similar haplotypes that share a common ancestor with a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mutation. Because a haplogroup consists of similar haplotypes, this is what makes it possible to predict a haplogroup from Haplotypes. A SNP test confirms a haplogroup. Haplogroups are assigned letters of the alphabet, and refinements consist of additional number and letter combinations, Example: R1b1. Y-chromosome and mitochondrial DNA haplogroups have different haplogroup designations. Haplogroups pertain to your deep ancestral origins dating back thousands of years. [1]
