Hispanic...he is Hispanic.

Hispanic isn't a race. There are white, black, mixed and native Hispanics.

Pushing that race card huh? So your agreeing that he is white Hispanic? You had no idea that even existed until the media beat it into your head. Don't think your knowledgeable in something you know nothing about. Wiki much?

Double.

You want to go that way? Sure, we can take a detour to semantic stupid land. White isn't a race either har har!

Nope.

White is used to describe people that have majority European ancestry.

Hispanic is a term used to describe people of black, white, mixed, and native ancestry. Hence why you have terms like afro-latino and white hispanic...because hispanic people can be any race.

I believe white or black can be used to define race or skin color. But what are the differences between race and ethnicity. Also does skin color really play a role in racial identity?

The riot/race aspect is being discussed here:
