> If we used the same standards for classifying different species we use on every other organism on humans, wouldn't different races be considered at least sub-species?

No, there is no defined race that is so geographically separate (a key component to sub-species) from others that could justify to be deemed a sub-species.

There is however a very specific group that do qualify for the possible categorization of sub-species due high amounts of isolation, the Andamanese island tribes particularly the Sentinelese people.

Also to all the retards in this thread, collectively decide to off yourselves. Having slightly statistical variance of genes between different regional populations or races does not automatically qualifies one as sub-species.

Until you can show evidence of a currently existing/modern "race" that meets or exceeds 2000 years of isolation with little to no admixture from ANY other human population (local or distant) with an upper estimated limit of 60,000 years. Do yourself a favor and shut the fuck up.
