Kamala Takes Time To Trash Columbus Day Showing Us Why She Cannot Be Trusted To Run This Country

[protectionist]

Reports coming out if modern reservations paint a pretty grim picture for Indians living there today

They are still behind the rest of America

Don't the get Affirmative Action preference ahead of whites ?

And whether ahead or behind of the rest of America, they are waaay ahead of their ancestors who lived here before white Europeans arrived. And that is only BECAUSE those white Europeans arrived, or they'd still be living in those tents. without cars, TVs, etc

I dont know how to compare the two

The drug and alcohol abuse didnt exist when Columbus got here

But that's just one comparison

 

[flewism]

The Europeans "conquered" the north American indigenous tribe's period. They could not stop fighting each other much less repel Europeans. Every country existing today was created by war and someone getting conquered.

I can compare the 2 VERY EASILY. I already did.
See post # 28.

Fuck Columbus! He was a vicious phony!

Gee whiz, did any of the foreigners fight against each other in Europe - before they invaded Native America?

Taking the Columbus Out of Columbus Day

It's long overdue that more of us get serious about doing something different with Columbus Day.

"Suffer" through zero to 1.4% inflation ?
"Suffer" through 34.8% GDP ? (highest ever)
"Suffer" through highest ever median wage ?
"Suffer" through lowest unemployment for blacks, hispanics, Asians ?



You don't seem to be too knowledgable.

The first two would require another world wide pandemic, that the second two have already been surpassed.

You don't seem to be too knowledgeable.

And you don't know how to spell "knowledgeable".

 

[mudwhistle]

I don't even know why we have Columbus day, he never set foot on what is the continental US today. And American Indians engaged in the same behaviors kneepads accused the Europeans of. They went to war with other tribes, took slaves and stole land.

Actually Muslims still have slaves. They don't call them that, but they have people who are considered slaves from poor countries working in their homes.
But according to the left only white people had slaves.

Slavery was common 6000 years ago in Egypt and earlier societies. The Persians had slavery bigtime when they were in power.

I think you missed the point.
We all know there were wars before 1492.
The Crusades were ongoing in 1092 and 1200.
Israelis when they were called Hebrews were fighting against Egyptians and other nations 4000 years ago.
The Babylonians were fighting wars 2000 years before the birth of Christ.

Damn these people lying that Chris didn't discover 'merica. maga

Who said that?

Yep, Muslims have slaves and China has Muslim slaves. 3rd world crap.

You should try thinking about what you're posting, before you post it. NO, the first would NOT require a pandemic of any kind.

As for knowledgeable, I was close enough.

I mailed in my ballot today and cast my presidential vote for Chase Oliver, the Libertarian candidate, marking the fifth presidential election in a row I have voted for the Libertarian candidate. There is no good choice in this election and while I briefly considered voting for Harris just to make sure Trump does not get back into office, it's stuff like this that kept me from being able to do that.

Chase Oliver is a worse choice than the others.

Trump trashes America day and Chrstopher Columbus never came to America. Its time you guys learned the truth.

Every race on earth held slaves at one time or another. Some still have them, including here in the US.

I didn't know today was the day set aside for us to trash our own country.

Is this 'Trash America Day'?

All countries recognize their bloody pasts. Coumbus never found America so all this white whining needs to stop. Fuck Columbus.

Many races had systems that let their slaves earn their freedom. That didn't happen here.
