of this "Christopher Columbus" travesty since a very early age. Even in grade school I could see through the lies they were teaching us about Columbus. To me it's a hateful, ignorant "holiday". Columbus did nothing but get lost, commence the genocide of America's indigenous people, lie to the benefactors who financed his wayward voyage, and kept on lying to them to finance more voyages. Christopher Columbus was a fool!
