Columbus. Good or bad?

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

The one who deserves great credit is Columbus' public relations director. People had been traveling to, into and around America for thousands of years when Columbus stumbled into an Island in the Gulf of Mexico and suddenly Columbus discovered America.

Yes, living in the Stone Age still.

I want to see the numbers before making any comments on them, if there are actually any hard numbers out there.

Between no record keeping by the natives and shoddy recordkeeping by the colonists, I doubt any number is reliable.

They didn't keep numbers themselves, and of course the whitey haters thinks that means they get to make up their own. Best estimates that there were maybe 5 million north of the Rio Grande max, and there are about that many now or close. Most leave the reservations and assimilate, inter-marry with other ethnic groups, like my grandmother and her brothers and sisters. Also some of the eastern tribes took in whites with little or no genetic links to natives. Chief John Ross of the Cherokees was mostly Scottish, for instance.

Only in metallurgy.

Only in metallurgy.

ONLY? You continue to be one of the most clueless people I have had the displeasure to converse with.

 

[Picaro]

Back up to a stump and spread your cheeks. I don't take orders from sniveling liars.

So you decided to go away? Okay, bye.

You need to play "I Touched You Last!!!", at least try to be clever. Not that you can be.

Then don't, Boomer. Go back to gumming your supper.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Then don't, Boomer. Go back to gumming your supper.

I don't gum my supper like I guess you do. They obviously pulled your teeth to keep you from biting the dog.

Ok Boomer. Change your colostomy bag..
