Zone1 Columbus crime

[See50]

The knowledge of Columbus ' s abuse of the Indians in the virgin Islands has been in knowledge for years. I saw a 1930 something short,believe it or not. Columbus was described as the first immigrant kicked out of the Americas and was chained on the ship until he went back to Spain. So he and his crew were punished for their physical harm against the natives. The shifty cowardly liberal professor explaining students about his crime probably did not mention about how he was punished for it . Because, the professor in desperation for a quick answer to stop bigotry right now felt that remembering the explorer was contributing to current bigotry and wanted l to erase it. Probably also too cowardly to focus against current bigotry cause it means risking prison ,death and injury to physically control it.Feeling that it safer to go after some one who's been dead for long time. This actually fuels current prejudice.

I'm not sure your point. Who cares if he faced some punishment for his atrocities? You realize you can hold contempt for more than one than person right?

As if any of you people are a better person than columbus.

Had any you people been in columbus's shoes, the outcome would be the same

As if native primitive culture had a future

Columbus is not remembered for being a wonderful individual. He is remembered for discovering the New World.

P.S. Don't start yapping about the Vikings. Their voyages to Newfoundland had no impact on world history.

I think anyone who comes across another group of people and doesn't immediately starting calculating how to exploit and rape them is a better person than Columbus but I get that you and I have different standards.

Columbus is fantasized by white people to have discovered the New World. It's just all a big coincidence how all the places he "discovered" were already inhabited by other human civilizations. It's kind of like telling us all about the restaurant you discovered on Yelp. Who knew besides being a deplorable rapist Columbus was also the origin of hipster culture.

Columbus is a better person than you are.

Columbus did not hurt a soul, but you go ahead and tell us all you think you know. Start with something factual with a quote from anything but your imagination
