Most Hispanics are white. Spain is where the span in hispanic comes from. Their descent is still mostly European. Most southern Italians are darker than people who trace their ancestry mostly from Spain, and that doesn't make Italians not white. There are some non-white Hispanics, ones who's ancestry largely comes from mixing with imported black people in the colonies, but most Hispanics are mostly from fucking Spain. Oh Colonialism.
The way most people in America talk about "the hispanics" it's like they think they're native Mayans or something. They come from the same European blood as the rest of us. They're god damn Catholics, and they're not converts either. They're the ones that brought it here.
