Did you read anon1's post?! Dude was, actually, agreeing with you.
Read the beginning part of the first sentence in his comment: (I've been following this guy's posts and while I don't agree with most of what he says).
Much of that discrepancy you see is due to this being not any single individual person or a group with some kind of unified agenda. It's hard for it to be hypocrisy or a facade when it isn't actually the same people. It's a similar situation between your posts and those of hablodecorazon--you make good points whereas hablodecorazon has made claims without much evidence (and often in the evidence of the contrary which he dismisses). However, he makes claims as if speaking for PRs as a group while there are certainly PRs who would probably distance themselves from him.
Tangential to this topic: there's a great post going around the Asia subforum where one user keeps on ranting about anime and how proud he is as an Asian person. It's downright embarrassing what's being said but he says it as if he's doing it on behalf of all Asians. As an Asian person, I would prefer he be punted in the balls.
Now what is you talking about OyCrumber? The only evidence that you claim that Albanians are the majority nationality population in East Williamsburg is a picture with two cars facing each other with Albanian graffiti, an Albanian flag and some other Albanian art talking about you was there last weekend with your brothers/sisters. I don't even know if there is/are any Albanians living in East Williamsburg due to your lack of evidence but I will find out this Saturday afternoon though.
Meanwhile, I've posted 2 youtube video clips and 3 webpages all recent (2013), including a webpage about the unaccuracy in the Puertorican U.S. Census counts as proof that there is no contradictions in all of my comments. And the only Puertoricans that would distance themselves from me are the Puertoricans that consider themselves all american and deny to speak Spanish.

Yes, but on that particular subject of hipsters coming into neighborhoods, he was agreeing with you.

There are puerto ricans that have been in North Brooklyn for generations that do not speak a lick of Spanish. Their ancestors came over 75+ years ago. I find that all puerto ricans in Brooklyn speak english, but I do not find all of them to speak spanish.

I'm not talking the Puertoricans consider themselves Puertoricans and do not know speak Spanish, I'm talking about the Puertorican that consider themselves (identify themselves as) American instead of Puertorican and/or deny that they speak Spanish (even though they know Spanish fluently).

If you are so proud of being Puerto Rican, why arent you living in Puerto Rico?
? .Puerto Ricans have no claim to any place in NY as some sort of homeland, because Nee York has no true history with Puerto Rico! Ethnic groups have come and go in Nyc. People will live where they can afford. If you want to be able to stay in these neighborhoods, get a job that enables you to live there! Buy property there. Or otherwise be removed, plain and simple.
Yes, but on that particular subject of hipsters coming into neighborhoods, he was agreeing with you.
I never stated that the hipsters are the dominant population in any area of East Williamsburg and I never stated that hipsters claim to be cool with black and Spanish folks. I actually stated the total opposite, so therefore he disagreed with me.
Proof: too many hipsters that I've dealt with claim to be cool with black and Spanish folk and yet on the streets in certain areas of East Williamsburg where they have become the dominant presence

I've been proving that East Williamsburg is a Puertorican neighborhood for days already.
This conversation is getting boring. Lets comment about jobs/business opportunities for Puertoricans, low income/affordable housing for Puertoricans, non-discrimination rights for Puertoricans, etc. Any comments and/or suggestions?
