I don't know of any "charlemagne day", you imbecile. You’re an immigrant to France, aren’t you? My parents were. I am French from birth, but what does that have to do with anything? |

He never stepped foot here. I mean, let's ignore the murdering and ear cutting off and raping and starving and enslaving - the guy never stepped foot in North America Fuck his holiday. The Caribbean Islands are part of the Americas. The new world. What continent do you think they belong to? First of all, Columbus never knew that he discovered anything. He thought all his life that he found a new route to India. Why do think you people call the Natives, "Indians"? That's because of that imbecile. Don't you think that in order for someone to claim having discovered anything that someone has to be at the very least be aware of it? |

He didn’t even know he discovered the new world that nobody else in the world outside of the new world knew existed either! What a stupid idiot! The balls it took to take a route that nobody had tried before, at least not recorded and not including the basically secretive voyages to Greenland and Nova Scotia much further north that nobody of Columbus’s time knew about. The courage is extraordinary. And we sit here on a message board giggling about what a fool he was. Hahahahah |

Because it’s actually something like the Feast of Saint Charlemagne. I don't know of anybody that celebrates a charlemagne day, you idiot. I didn't even know there was one until you mentioned it. That's likely some obsolete thing only known by few. You are a presumptuous piece of shit. Unlike me, my parents are Christians, although they are no longer practicing Christians, however that's none of your business, you worthless piece of shit!!! I am just answering because of the insults implied in your "queries", you bastard. You are a vile disgusting sack of scum! |

And then try to calm down. I have no problem with Islam. I feel a closer kinship with Muslims than I do atheists. A humility that doesn’t exist with most atheists. A humility that comes from recognizing a greater power. |

Hahahahah Columbus was a contributing factor to changing the world that existed back then into what it is today but so were the multiple epidemics that wiped out several times half of the population of Europe. So were the multiple wars that sometimes utterly destroyed entire cultures in favors of others. We don't celebrate these either, you idiot! |

We are all, afraid of dying, except maybe a few crazy persons but that's no excuse for becoming an imbecile that thinks he's securing an afterlife with arbitrary rituals when he can see thousands of groups making thousands of different things with the same certainty that they are the only ones to "know the truth", moron! |

Who celebrates Julius Caesar anymore? I'll bet people celebrated say two hundred years ago, are only known now by a few historians. Two hundred years from now, things may change some more and people celebrated now will be seen for what they are or at least differently. There's something called evolution. You might get yourself acquainted with it. |

Whatever drugs you are smoking, archie, WOW, they are powerful. I think I understand now, what your side means when they say, 'word salad'. I have no clue what you just said. It's like you put a whole bunch of words in a hat, dumped it out, and whatever order they landed in, you wrote it down in this post. Freon I know that in ancient history, many were here before Columbus. So what? What do you want me to say? I tell you that you are stupid now. Your country is being destroyed right under your nose. And you keep blaming the wrong guy for it. You and many others that can’t see the obvious is beyond what I can believe. I know there are many people with mental problems. But most here are not stupid. I have to think that somehow they are just a democrat addict. And they are hurting themselves and others just like any serious drug addict. I hope you all wake up before the next vote. Our country is going to hell through socialism. Do you all here understand socialism? I hear you loud and clear, archie, but I don't think you are hearing me. I never once experience genuine fear for my safety until Donald was in power. Am I just supposed to ignore that? Donald is telling you that you are wonderful, and that that country is all for you. But he's not telling me that. To me, he's saying I'm the enemy. That my blood is tainting America, just like Hitler said. He saying my views are too modern, that America is NOT a great place, that I am damaging it. How can I support someone who views me that way? When I look at the time Donald was in power, I see a chaotic time with riots, racism, a tanking economy, an epidemic out-of-control, a Congress getting nothing done, and our allies laughing at us. I could care less if he makes us wealthier, which I don't even believe he can do. But even if I was 100% sure of it, the price he makes us pay in chaos, uncertainty and risk is simply too high. If you vote for him, you are voting for chaos and uncertainty. So when you say that I am stupid, I really cannot respect your point of view, considering your own positions. Freon |

Hmmm, 'led directly to the United States of America'? Really? He landed in 1492, and we became a nation in 1776. That's almost 300 years later, lol. You call that 'directly'? Yes. It is direct. Obviously. There is no version of historical steps leading to the United States of America that doesn’t include Columbus sailing across the Atlantic. So we should thank the King and Queen of Spain, for funding him, right, because their decision DIRECTLY led to America, lol. Or what about the King and Queen's parents, because without them having sex, no DIRECT result in America, right? What an incredibly LAME argument you've made, and all because as a child, you bought into a holiday they taught you in school, and the idea of change is just too challenging for you. Freon |

I think modern people should more harshly judge modern monsters. And try to have some perspective with people from ancient times and offer a little charity. We tend to do the opposite. Modern monsters, if victorious, are glorified. And we shake our fists at people from much more savage times. |

Everything in the western hemisphere is considered the Americas. I’m not making this up. You can verify. Columbus is a pivotal figure in history. I don’t know why this is controversial anymore, because beyond being extraordinarily balls-y, he was also a product of his times. |

Their tactics are studied in politics and military. I don’t know what else to say here. |

I’ll throw in the Spanish royalty at that time. No problem there. Funding such a ballsy and legendary voyage is worthy of note. But you take it to the absurd when you just add in more ancestors. That’s not part of the courageous decision and voyage. |

Did anyone else here listen to Giggles (known as Harris) talk bad about the 1492 Columbus starting the settlement of the country, and how wrong it was to do that? And she thinks the open border is no problem for us now. I'm relieved to say that I didn't listen. |
