Columbus Day in the United States

Featured Replies

The "why I'm so against Native American Day?" question? Or which one.

What Columbus did to deserve a day. And you're against Native American day why?

Columbus Day is niets meer dan een rubberen stempel vakantie waarin de persoon wordt gevierd begaan afschuwelijke daden van genocide.

 

English or don't post, please.

I'm assuming that says you cannot speak English. That being the case, it's against the forum rules to speak in a foreign language without an English translation.

As I said earlier, I really don't give a damn about who has what days and when. I just hate it when some guy reads Vikings discovered America first and think Columbus was useless and when people overglorify the natives.

 

That is all.

I never said anything about the Vikings, nor did I over glorify anyone. The Native's were a wide variety, there were the peaceful natives and the savage natives. If you don't care about who has what days, then you don't necessarily care if there is an Indigenous Day or a Columbus Day...which is the point of this thread...

Yes and no, directly this thread is about those days but indirectly you cannot help talk about the subject of Columbus and the natives, whos right and wrong, etc.

 

Historical inaccuracy. That's the word(s) I was looking for. I hate that.

No, not you, as I was typing my last-last post I was trying to think of a word to describe how the "history nerds" thought Columbus was trash compared to the Vikings.

Ooh, my mistake. Yeah, I don't compare Columbus to Vikings, they weren't even in the same era.
