    Great. Very impresive number but that is taking IWW and IIWW where 90% of American troops where of Irish decent and where <1% where Hispanic. Hell, the number of service members serving during IWW/IIWW of Irish heritage were likely more than the entire population of Puerto Rico!

    That's an exibit of Gallantry and Valor! You dont see anyone making fun of the ultimate sacrifice made by a US serviceman like you did with the Puertoricans who made the ultimate sacrifice and EARNED the MOH.

    don't get your hopes up guys. I don't think this will happen. At least not in a long time

    The Republicans will try and block Puerto Rico from becoming a state. They don't want another state that will vote Democrat. I agree Puerto Rico should be a state.
